    Since it seems that no one else is going to make a thread for this...

    It's out. Discuss.

    Spoiler warning is in the title so no need for tags.

    I'd like to hear the story behind Triple-Changer Megatron, and what (if anything) is said about Sari's origins.

    I love this book. I get all giddy every time I turn the page and see something else that's epically awesome, which happens to be EVERYTHING IN IT!

    Reading this makes me want to try to drum up interest for a season 4 or Alien Force style sequel even stronger.

    Does that make me a bad person because I'm unrealistic?

    I dont think he means an exact copy of alien force, with the three person cast, i think he means the darker tone of the show.

    Every second page of this book contains nuggets of "AWW MAN, WHY WAS THIS CANCELLED?!?!?" I am really happy they made the book, but I'd be even happier if the series was continued.

    Buy this book. Even if you hated Animated, because it's actually a good insight into the process of making a cartoon show/toy line.

    Knowing TFW, some over-eager person will take great pleasure in setting you straight.

    Darn it. Probably will have to wait a while to get it since i ordered thru' Amazon. I expect reading it will make me sad again over the premature cancellation of the show.
