The figures are Roadbuster Ultra Magnus, Shadow Blade Megatron along side the Season 3 character Safeguard (Jetfire and Jetstorm).

Titan Publishing have sent out a letter to the subscribers of the UK exclusive Transformers Animated comic letting them know that the comic has been cancelled and that no further issues will be printed. The last official issue was number 3 that was released on the 18th December 2008. Whether or not the stories / art for other issues will be made available to fans in another way is not know, but is exceedingly unlikely. This is sad news for UK fans of Transformers Animated who are already finding it hard to find the toys with the distribution hit by the closure of Woolworths as well as wavering sales.

An auction has appeared on ebay confirming the profile for Transformers Animated Safeguard, the combined form of Jetfire and Jetstorm.
Bio: "Created using the most advanced techniques known to autobot
science, jetstorm and jetfire were cloned from tech recovered from
starscream. Brought online in a secret laboratory deep beneath
cybertron, they are the first autobots created specifically to battle
the decepticons. Though they are young, they are extremely intelligent,
working their way through the Elite Guard boot camp in record time.
Together they are potentially the most powerful Autobots of all time,
especially when they combine into their Safeguard form."
Galactic Powers: "The only Autobots that can fly", "Youngest Elite
Guard members of all time", "The first robot's with the ability to
combine"
