    The official Transformers FB page has an interview up with James Roberts, about the recently released issue 12 and beyond.

    There's spoilers in here, so be warned. As well as teases including that we're getting a Marvel UK-style epic down the road.

    Well, this'll be interesting.

    Anyone else think that Chromedome is the Issue #15 guy?

    The only characters that should be untouchable are Ultra Magnus, Rodimus, and Ratchet. Otherwise, it's fair game. I bet they pick up Guzzle and Impactor somewhere down the line.

    Hmm. No real important questions asked in this interview. I think I'll go to a convention and personally ask Roberts why he is not using more of the original '84 line up.

    Drift might be untouchable at this point as well.

    nope him, Ultra Magnus, Cromedome, Hound and Dipstick are on the Necrobot's list which i think will start happening in issue 16 and i bet Rewind would love to see the list. :)

    Then they get nostalgia'd over and eventually come back.

    Probably because these characters have been used and re-used and re-interpreted over and over again since 1984. Show me a writer who makes me care about z-list characters, and I'll show you a great TF writer.

    Hmm, anyone hoping that they collect the remaining Wreckers?

    Because I think it'd be cool to see Impactor, Guzzle, Roadbuster and Springer all turn on Whirl and help Cyclonus kill the guy.

    Shhhhhhhhhh, ignore him and he might go away. Let's not have another thread de-railed by his insane gibberings.

    They're all either on Cybertron in RiD or aboard The Lost Light in MTMTE. Other than Optimus Prime who is in space and Thundercracker who is on Earth.

    Most of the 1984 guys are over in RiD. Or are you seriously wanting the likes of Prowl, Wheeljack, Sideswipe and Bumblebee in MTMTE as well as RiD?

    Do you even read Robots in Disguise?
