The audio contained within this video has been taken from an original cassette recording of a one-to-one studio session between Wally Burr (directing) and Frank Welker (performing), with the tape dated 9th August 1984.

The session features vocoded effects for Ravage and is from the Transformers Generation One series. The audio was recorded during the Season One sessions and was added to the end of a cassette containing the unslugged audio for War of the Dinbots along with audio of the Hound / Rumble fight from the episode More Than Meets The Eye.

This is the original audio from the tape.

CBR are reporting that Mairghread Scott and David Rodriguez will be writing the next Hasbro Universe cross-over arch called FIRST STRIKE which focuses on Cobra, led by Baron Ironblood, deciding to directly target the Transformers. The artwork shall be provided by Max Dunbar withissues solicited as coming out from September.

IDW Publishing has a new Hasbro crossover on the way, and it doesn’t sound like good news for the Transformers.

CBR has the first details on “First Strike,” announced Thursday at the Diamond Retailer Summit in Chicago. The story starts with two issues in August, from the writing team of IDW Transformers vet Mairghread Scott & David Rodriguez (Narrative Director at Vicarious Visions, the game company best known for the “Skylanders” franchise) and artist Max Dunbar, recently of IDW’s “Micronauts” series.

Following 2016’s “Revolution” event — which saw IDW’s licensed Hasbro properties united in one shared universe — “First Strike” picks up with Earth about to join the Cybertronian Council of Worlds. That peaceful event is interrupted by Cobra, as Baron Ironblood — historically the British counterpart to Cobra Commander — has targeted all Cybertronians for termination, putting the Transformers in serious jeopardy. The G.I. Joes, led by Scarlett, and the Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, stand in the way in the face of extinction — enlisting help along the way from, apparently, an unlikely ally in the form of Soundwave of the Decepticons.

While this certainly sounds like the comic book equivalent of a blockbuster summer movie, Scott said it’s also a “deeply personal character story.”

“One man attempts to dominate, one woman stands against him,” Scott said in a statement to CBR. “Watch as Scarlett leads her G.I. Joes on a daring mission to save all of Cybertron from their gravest threat yet. ‘First Strike’ is a fast-paced, hard-hitting, and deeply personal character story set against the backdrop of intergalactic war with all the giant robots, cyborg ninjas, and massive explosions you could ask for.”

IDW Publishing Editor-in-Chief David Hedgecock described “First Strike” as the natural progression from what the company started in “Revolution.”

“In ‘Revolution,’ we united our Hasbro comic book titles into one shared universe,” Hedgecock said. “In ‘First Strike,’ we see what it’s like to live in the shadows of a massively powerful, ancient, alien race that has been warring with itself for millions of years and, in doing so, has brought death and destruction to every planet it has touched.”

“What, if anything, can one man do to save his planet? What depths will he go to in order to save mankind? How do you destroy all the Transformers?”

True to the “Revolution” spirit, it won’t just be Transformers and G.I. Joe getting involved in “First Strike” — the M.AS.K. team will also be involved.

“‘First Strike’ is your childhood toy box exploding onto the [comic] page: the Transformers, G.I. Joe, and M.A.S.K. teams brought together, each of them positioned on different sides of this planet-spanning conflict,” Rodriguez said in a statement. “Sometimes the groups will line up along expected party lines, but other times, you’ll see them being torn apart from the inside, as they are forced to face the impossible concept of one human man declaring war against Cybertron and then being really good at it.”

“First Strike” will run for three months, with six issues planned to ship on a twice-monthly schedule. Tie-ins to the event will be revealed at a later date. Covers for each issue will be illustrated by “Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” artist Freddie E. Williams II, along with multiple variants.

Transformers War of the Dinobots Extended And Delete Audio

*NEW* WALLY: Ah this is Transformers War of the Dinobots 700-07

#### Extended Scene ####

OPTIMUS PRIME: I always worry about the Decepticons, Spike. Autobots, transform.

CHIP: Thanks for comin' so fast. According to my calculations, the meteor should hit sometime tonight.

*NEW* HOUND: Maybe I can help Chip. I'll make a hologram of the meteor's final destination. Here! It will land in that deserted section of the city in 7 thousand astro-seconds.

OPTIMUS PRIME: The meteor could be an energy source of incalculable strength.

IRONHIDE: Then we'd better get to it before the Decepticons do.

*NEW* MEGATRON: The rest of you join them -- while I remain behind to discuss a plan with our brilliant Dinobot allies.

MEGATRON: If it please you, o superior ones, might one as unworthy as I suggest a course of action to assist in the destruction of our enemy Optimus Prime?

#### Extended Scene ####

WHEELJACK: If this fragment is typical, the meteorite is just cooking with unstable energies. It's liable to explode at any second.

TRAILBREAKER: Not if I can help it!

*NEW* TRAILBREAKER: I really got a bang out of that! [laughts]

CHIP CHASE:If the whole meteorite explodes...

WHEELJACK: there's no telling what might happen.

*NEW* PROWL: Wind? My motor reflex circuits weren't prepared for wind!

#### Extended Scene ####

*NEW* MEGATRON: Megatron calling Starscream, our Dinobots have triumphed! I shall rejoin you now.

OPTIMUS PRIME: Please! This is senseless! We are friends!

Following on from the first five videos covering extended and deleted dialogue from the Transformers Generation One cartoon episode More Than Meets The Eye - Part 1 we, at Transformers At The Moon, are pleased to bring you a video containing the changed, extended and missing dialogue from Part 2 of More Than Meets The Eye.

Part 2 of the episode starts at the oil rig as the Autobots save Spike and Sparkplug before returning to The Ark. Spike has picked up Soundwave, who he finds laying on the floor, enters The Ark to talk to the Autobots and is taken our for a ride by Hound.

This is where we join the new dialogue.

****************************************
HOUND: ...it was quiet and peaceful.
SPIKE WITWICKY: You miss it?
HOUND: Sometimes. Hold tight!
*NEW* SPIKE WITWICKY: Yahoo!! Yippee!! Waaooww!
*NEW* SPIKE WITWICKY: Woah, thanks Hound that was the greatest ride I have ever had
*NEW* HOUND: My pleasure Spike. See you later, I ... better go check my coil springs
*NEW* SPIKE WITWICKY: Oh, you didn't see a cassette player laying around here did you?
*NEW* HOUND: Nope. Sorry
*NEW* SPIKE WITWICKY: That's okay. I must have left it in the ship.  See'ya 
SPIKE WITWICKY: Hey! what's going on here?
SPIKE WITWICKY: Who... who are you?
[Ravage snarls before being ejected, this is corrected in the final version]
RAVAGE: *snarl*
SOUNDWAVE: Ravage! Eject! Eject!
*NEW* SPIKE: *coming around*
OPTIMUS PRIME: A Decepticon! Get him!
SOUNDWAVE: Ravage!

****************************************

****************************************
[The Decepticons start a tidal wave which is noticed back at the Ark]
[NOTE: In the Ron Friedman script there is additional dialogue between Jazz and Spike which was not recorded during the session that this tape was used.]

JAZZ: Could be the Decepticons, all right. I'll tell Prime!
*NEW* PRIME: Autobots ready! To the Air!
*NEW* WORKER: Run! They're coming!
*NEW* WORKER 2: Get back!
MEGATRON: I am Megatron - leader of the Decepticons! you will do exactly as I say!

*NEW* MEGATRON: Skywarp! Thundercracker! Transfer the electrical power
MEGATRON: Soundwave, prepare the energon cubes.
MEGATRON: Quickly, quickly!
****************************************


****************************************
[NOTE: In the scripts Wheeljack is with Bumblebee and it's Ironhide who is with Trailbreaker. During the recording session that this tape is from the characters have been changed]

IRONHIDE: Stop talkin', tighten your shock absorbers, and get in! We're gonna make a new river!

OPTIMUS PRIME: Autobots - To the power plant!

****************************************
CLIFFJUMPER: For someone who doesn't like to fight, heh, you're not bad, Mirage.
*NEW* MEGATRON: It's a long way down Prime!
MEGATRON: Any last words??
OPTIMUS PRIME: None you'd wanna hear, Megatron!
****************************************

NOTE: Shortly after the previous dialogue Megatron say the following lines. 
MEGATRON: You fool, Starscream! Help save the Energon cubes! Get them out of here! Follow me!
NOTE: On the tape we own the line "Follow me!" is missing from this exchange.

NOTE: The tape of the recording session we own has slightly reorderd dialogue from Spike as Rumble emerges from the water. The dialogue is spaced out so that it could be cut and edited together and so we have decided not to include it within this video
SPIKE WITWICKY: Hound! Hound! You all right down there?
SPIKE WITWICKY: Hey!
*Line order swapped* SPIKE WITWICKY: Whoa!
*Line order swapped* SPIKE WITWICKY: Where's Hound?
SPIKE WITWICKY: Heelp! Heeelp!

NOTE: As Act 2 closes Megatron says the following line
MEGATRON: Who's the scrap metal now, Prime? You'll never stop me! (Laughs)
NOTE: On the tape this is then followed by the "Follow me!" cry that was missing earlier.
[ONTO ACT 3]

SPIKE WITWICKY: Look, Dad, no hands.
TRAILBREAKER: Heheh, big deal. I'm driving!
SPARKPLUG WITWICKY: Uh-oh,

SPARKPLUG WITWICKY: we've got company!
