Jim Sorenson has posted an update on his blog regarding the Ron Friedman auction that he won that contained the preliminary script for Transformers: The Movie (that's the 1986 film).
"Last month, a group of dedicated fans pooled their resources to attempt
to purchase a piece of Transformers history; scripts and other documents
from Transformers movie writer Ron Friedman. Many scripts were won by
our coalition, but perhaps the most anticipated among the many documents
we purchased was an early draft of The Transformers: The Movie, dated
4/27/1985. I've scanned it in and done a preliminary OCR pass, so
without further ado, here it is for download!"
The script contains the dialogue for many scenes that did not make the final draft including Megatron's reference to his "Spark", action for Sunstreaker and Wheeljack and the how the fate of Earth was also going to hang in the balance. Some of the information was already known about, like the Predacons originally being Autobots called Anibots, but what is new (at least to us) is that their names were finalised as Simba (Razorclaw), Pardo (Rampage), Shriek (Divebomb), Thump (Headstrong) and Clump (Tantrum).  Other new characters are Stripes and Stinger two other cassettes for Blaster. Form the script its obvious that Streeljaw was to be called Cubbie, a Tiger was going to be called Stripes, a scorpion was going to be called Stinger and there was only going to be one robot, Bolts. We had heard rumours of a scorpion cassette many years ago, but always put it down to the watch scorpion confusing people as we could find no further evidence.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
STAN BUSH’S new album "Dream the Dream"!
Los Angeles, Sept. 2010 - Emmy-Award winning recording artist Stan
Bush, a worldwide icon of Melodic Rock, releasing his new album "Dream
the Dream" now available at
stanbush.com!
Dream the Dream, Stan Bush’s 11th studio album, finds the veteran
singer/songwriter on top of his game, delivering the kind of powerful
melodies and positively charged lyrics that have earned him a loyal
following that spans the globe. Longtime fans and new listeners alike
will be pleased to find Bush’s no-nonsense approach to rock n’ roll and
emotive lyrics ring true in this new audio gem, the follow up to his
critically acclaimed 2007 smash, In This Life. "We’ve been working on
the new album for a year and a half, and I’m very happy with it," says
Bush, "the last album, In This Life, got great reviews and though we had
to work really hard, I think we’ve got ourselves another amazing album.
Some of the songs have a ‘go for it’ message, and some are about love,
life and a search for meaning."
Producer and multi-instrumentalist Holger Fath joins with Stan Bush
once again for Dream the Dream, co-creating more of the unique brand of
melodic rock that has become their hallmark. Other songwriters
contributing to this new release are Bobby Barth (Axe, Blackfoot,NULL), Curt
Cuomo (KISS, Eddie Money,NULL), Ed Tree and Lenny Macaluso. "I was honored to
again work with Holger Fath as producer/guitarist (and also keys,NULL),"
offers Bush, "I think he’s brilliant, and he’s been a close friend for
years. Matt Laug (Alice Cooper, Slash,NULL), is one of the best rock drummers
in Los Angeles, and on bass, Matt Bissonette (David Lee Roth, Rick
Springfield,NULL), is incredibly solid."
While crafting new material, tracks from Stan Bush’s previous albums
have continued to appear in television and major motion pictures the
world over. His all-time hit "The Touch" from "Transformers: The Movie"
and "Boogie Nights" was also featured on Chuck (NBC) and recently on
American Dad (FOX). Stan’s song "Til All Are One (Transformers Theme)"
is featured in the new Activision game. Transformers: War for Cybertron.
Bush’s "’Til I Was Loved by You" captured an Emmy Award in 1997 for
Best Original Song, a true career highlight. As a vocalist, Bush has
sung on albums by renowned artists such as Alice Cooper and Jefferson
Starship, and has worked with a bevy of the music industry’s top
producers including Ron Nevison, Giorgio Moroder, Andy Johns, Mick
Jones, Desmond Child, Peter Frampton and Richie Zito. Bush has
co-written with top songwriters like Jonathan Cain (Journey,NULL), and Jim
Vallance (Bryan Adams, Aerosmith,NULL), and Paul Stanley of KISS.
A European tour in support of the release of Dream the Dream will be
announced by Stan Bush in the near future with details and dates
forthcoming.
