Today marks the return of the original Transformers comics continuity to publication, nearly 21 years after the original series ceased publication. That's right, today sees the release of the greatly anticipated IDW Transformers series Regeneration 1! Kicking off where Marvel's Transformers #80 left off, we are right back into the classic Transformers saga complete with the original writer / artist duo of Simon Furman and Andrew Wildman!
To go with this very special release, the
Transformers Facebook Group has put up a commentary with the creative team giving some insight on what went into these first few pages of the new issue - the pages that bring us back to the original story arc and particularly that first striking splash page.
Check it out!

By way of
Amazon Japan &
Autobase Aichi on Facebook, we've got a look at the front of case artwork, price and release date for the Beast Wars Neo DVD set release. The second of the two Japan-only cel-animated Beast Wars side stories, Beast Wars Neo is a direct sequel to Beast Wars Second, featuring the one-robot army Big Convoy and a crew of raw recruits assigned to his care searching for the scattered capsules of Angolmois energy before the Destrons led by Magmatron can recover them for their own faction's nefarious uses.
Beast Wars Neo has never had a DVD release - until now! Come 26 September 2012 this chapter of the Transformers Beast Era will finally be available on Japanese DVD - no English subtitles unfortunately. The set will not be cheap either as is the way with these things, with an expected retail of ￥23,940.

Entertainment Earth has posted some details of those Kre-O Kreon Mini Changer figures we heard about via MTV Geek earlier this week. Bad news though - these will be blind-bagged. The first assortment comes in a case of 32 and features twelve figures. Six have been named in the listing so far. The six feature a couple of surprises including the first Beast Wars Kre-O! Yes, Hall of Fame Hartman Award winner Waspinator is getting his very own Kreon - along with the one true Emperor of Destruction, Galvatron! The full assortment listing is as follows:
Waspinator
Sunstorm
Spinster
Galvatron
Crankstart
Scorponok
Who could the other six be? Hopefully there will be some Autobots to balance out this Decepticon-heavy initial listing - and hopefully we will get a glimpse at all these and more at the San Diego Comic Con - coverage of which you can follow on here and on our fellow network sites.

Amazon.com has posted photos of their exclusive Jetwing Optimus Prime and G2 Bruticus. Pre-orders for both were
recently reported, although availability has fluctuated.
While the Bruticus image appears to use the same promotional photo from when it was
originally teased, the higher-quality photos reveals the use of the G2 Decepticon logo. The Jetwing Optimus Prime features a new deco, with the jetwing itself color-matched to the Autobot leader.
At the time of this news posting,
Jetwing Optimus Prime is still up for pre-order. The G2 Bruticus listing has been mysteriously removed from Amazon, although he remains in your order history if you were able to pre-order him.
