A scan has been posted online from the February issue of the Japanese hobby magazine Dengeki Hobby.  The two page scan contains new images of both Masterpiece Grimlock as well as Alternity Megatron.  The Grimlock images show off two of the gimmick, the mind transfer unit from "Grimlocks new brain" and that the Autobot symbol on his chest can be rotated for a black version.

The Alternity Megatron images are of the prototype of the figure and give the best indication of how the final toy will look.

Update:

Snakas has published some details of the content of the latest issue of Hyper Hobby Magazine. Here is an English summary:

Prototype images were published of the Transformers Disney Label Mickey Mouse including three images of the figure in robot mode and three in vehicle mode.  No images were published in Hyper Hoby of the transformation process, but this was including in other publications.

New images were published of both the red and silver versions of Transformers Alternity Convoy. The photographs of the silver version are the same as all of the other hobby magazines.

Two design images were shown of the upcoming Transformers Masterpiece Grimlock figure.  The images were the same as those used in Dengeki Hobby Magazine.

Transformers Henkei Hound and Cheetas were shown as were Transformers Encore Trailbreaker and Transformers Encore Hoist.

Finally, new images were published of Music Label Excile Convoy, e-Hobby Exclusive Sunstorm and e-Hobby exclusive Black Megatron.

Snakas has published details of the November 2008 issue of Dengeki Hobby Magazine over on his blog in Japanese.  Below you will find an English language summary of his post.

The november issue contained four pages of Transformers information.  The first being on Transformers Alternity GT-R Convoy including images of the box.  The six images showcasing the transformation that appeared in both Figure Oh and Figure King are also published in this issue of Dengeki Hobby.  The Japanese Transformers Henkei Galvatron and Ironhide figures are shown with different images to those that appeared in Figure King.  Prototypes are shown of Targetmaster Cyclonus, Cheetas (Cheetor) and Hound.  The Cheetor images are the same as figure king, but the Cyclonue images are new.  Snakas states that this is the first Japanese showing of Anniversary / Universe Hound and that the vehicle mode which is shown in the concept picture is best decribed as a light armored military vehicle and is clearly based on the G1 Jeep.  MP-7 Thundercracker is shown in a large photograph which highlights the two different faces of the toy.  There is also a package photograph of the BT-22 Convoy figure.

As mentioned in the Figure King coverage, the silhouette of the mystery also appears in the magazine with the words "That super-famous worldwide character".  Finally there is an advert for BT Convoy to end the Transformers coverage.
