Transformers Universe
MMO Panel At Auto Assembly 2011!
You may have thought
that you had seen all of our major announcements regarding Auto Assembly 2011,
but we said we had a few more special announcements that we had held back - and
here's one of the biggest that we have been wanting to tell you all about for
quite some time...
The upcoming
Transformers Universe MMO is on course to be one of the most eagerly awaited
Transformers games EVER. The online MMO will be giving players the chance to
take charge of a brand new self-created Autobot or Decepticon and play against
thousands of other players across the globe!
The game is being
created by Jagex, the British developers who are responsible for Runescape
which is the world's most popular free-to-play MMOG and over 40 other online
titles.
Jagex will be at Auto
Assembly 2011 and will be taking to the stage for a presentation on the game
and for a Q&A Session on the Saturday afternoon which promises to be one of
the hits of the convention, where they will be revealing some new information
about the game EXCLUSIVELY to Auto Assembly attendees!
That's not all though,
we can also now reveal that we are being joined by our SIXTEENTH guest! A late
addition to our already stunning line-up is Marvel G1 artist and inker Stephen
Baskerville who will be making his Auto Assembly debut this year. He will be
taking to the stage as part of our revised comic panel on Saturday afternoon
joining Simon Furman and Andrew Wildman to talk about Transformers #81...
Auto Assembly 2011 is
taking place over the weekend of 12th - 14th August 2011 at the Holiday Inn
Birmingham City Centre, Birmingham, England and tickets are available from the
website now. For more details on the convention, to see a full list of all the
guests and activities taking place over the weekend, or to book your tickets,

We hope to see you all in August!

The official
Transformers War for Cybertron website has revealed two more characters from the upcoming game, Air Raid and
Breakdown.
AIR RAID
Autobot
Class:
Scout
Chassis: Jet
Primary Weapon: EMP Shotgun
Abilities:
Guided Missile, Dash
Description: Fearless and rash, Air Raid
is always ready for a fight. He prefers diving head first into a pack
of Decepticons rather than shooting them from afar because it’s more
fun. That is his only real goal in life; to have fun. This attitude
always seems to place him and his fellows in danger, but he always
manages to get himself and his friends out of it.
BREAKDOWN
Decepticon
Class: Scout
Chassis: Car
Primary
Weapon: EMP Shotgun
Abilities: Shockwave, Dash
Description:
Breakdown is a very capable Decepticon warrior, but has one main
underlying problem. He is extremely paranoid that everyone and
everything is out to get him. Being in crowded places is nerve
wracking for Breakdown, as he feels like everyone is staring at him,
judging him. He just wants to blend in and do the duty that the
Decepticons require of him in anonymity.

The BBFC have posted several recent rating entries for Transformers Revenge of the Fallen, mainly connected to the tie-in computer game from Activision.
On the 3rd April they rated this dvd collection as PG. Its from Activision and contains Transformers Revenge of the Fallen cut scenes and gameplay footage as well as all three parts of the Transformers Generation One episodes "The Ultimate Doom".
On the 7th April the BBFC rated Future Publishing PSM 113 disc as a 15 which also includes some Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen content. The same publishers XBox World 360 also has a similar cover disc rated as 15 as well. Both of these publications follow on from last months 15 rating given to Future Publishings PSW coverdisc that also contained some Revenge of the Fallen content.
For those wondering about the actual movie, the only BBFC rating for that was on the 12th Feb when they rated the teaser trailer as PG for UK audiences.
