Malunis_T: Amazon.com: Transformers Animated: Starscream Flies Again: Annie Auerbach: Books
An odd book popped up. It says Transformers Animated, but down at the description (only provides book info), at least on the Canadian version, it says "Publisher: HarperCollins Canada /
Movie Tie-in (Sep 2 2009)"
Movie tie-in? Animated? Curious.
The US release date is September 15, 2009. Guess we'll find out what it is by then.
--------------
I'd also like to thank Fire_flybot over on Twitter for bringing the listing to my attention.

She's in Canada, so that's how I saw the info on the Canadian listing.

Ok now, trying NOT to get too excited.
Can we hope???
Nachtsider:
Curious.

Seeker24:
Hopefully this is a sign for some more Animated.
KaRNiV8L PR1M3:

MushroomPrime:
My God. Animated is gone folks, except for a select few omics and books. Sheesh

Eh, well, you never know.

Orbital:
wouldn't be surprised if it gets canceled. Everything Animated related is getting canceled.

Oh come on MushroomPrime, let those of us who want to hope keep on doing so. It may be over, but then again, it may NOT BE. Only time will tell.....
Better to be optimistic than pessimistic or fatalistic (or any other listic)jk jk
blackout501st:
yes yes, animated might be "over" but that dsont mean we wont get any new material ever agen. but hell, even a kiddy book is good news. anything that could tie up the loose ends that they couldent squeeze in is excellent!
Wheeljack_Prime:
*waits for Kickback*
Scythe:
I like all the: "Animated?? Bah-Hum-Bug!" -people coming out of the woodwork cuz it's a gasping thread to hang onto.

Not getting my hopes up - yet!
Fort Max:
Does seem rather interesting, title seems fitting/believable after yesterdays events too. It certainly wouldn't fit the bay movie verse.
Not getting my hopes up though, could be just a mistake of some sort.
Digilaut:
Stop jumping to conclusions, people!
Cyberwolf1980:
I'm not gonna jump the gun yet. With the cancellation of figs lately, this could just be a late listing. Hopefully if this does come out the book takes place after Endgame as I did not like the way they handled his death. Interesting on the movie tie-in bit. I'm guessing a mix up however

Nope, not even slight optimism allowed, lest you invoke Kick-Wrath.
DieMaus:
Wow, you really can't keep a good Starscream down, can you?
planetjacker:
I found this on amazon yesterday and did some looking around. It seems this company has done a few of this style book which appear to be screen shots from the show with dialog bubbles.
I miss Animated as much as the next person. However I feel this is just a late release of a kids book, not an indication of the continuation of the show.
Omega Charge:
Yay, he lives!
*sigh*

And you're posting this in a thread ABOUT an Animated
book.
DiamondHead:
I put this up months ago it's funny how nobody cared about it untill animated ended
Dran0n:
September seems a little late to release something Animated related.
Dinobot Nuva:
Forgive them Kicky, they know not what they say!
Fort Max:
Rats, false hope.

Yep, that was my conclusion too. I think that book series is republishig all of the old stories and I think they are just getting to the part in season one where we see Screamer again.
Don't get excited. Not about this anyway.
The Primes:
Even if it is just a small new thing at the end of the line, I really hope this means that Animated Starscream will come back. He's one of my favorite characters.
saberconvoy:
so he may still have life in him and starscream still may come back after the show has ended but i doubt it
abutor:
This book is supposedly taking place when Prowl has all those upgrades and goes after Starscream.
I do not think it has anything to do with a continuation of the series.
I have no idea why it is coming out in September, though. Seems a bit long to wait.

You did? o_O I'm sorry - it seemed recent considering the release date.
