Rhino's Generation One DVDs
BIG thanks to Mr Ghoul for catching this.
Those praying for a complete box set may be disappointed, but the 3 part episodes "Rebirth" and "The Ultimate Doom" will be Rhino's first DVD releases. If these sell, more will come...

X-E Dissects the later years of Generation One
Matt always writes goofy articles, and this retrospective of some of the goofier ideas of the Transformers universe is no exception. Some small facts are wrong, but its best to overlook that and just laugh.

Takara to Re-Air G1?
Prime Z found something odd on Takara's web page, so Dru put it through a translator, with interesting results. It appears that Takara has plans to re-air G1 from 8:00-8:30 on "Channel 63." (NOTE: this is Japan, folks) More information is available by clicking on the link.
Oh, and sorry about the lack of updates over the past few days... after the rush of Toy fair information, nothing of much importance has come out. Sonic Attack Jets were spotted at a Target in St. Louis, though.

Figures.com RID pictures
Nothing we haven't seen already really, but pictures are pictures. A lot of these pictures are really blurry though.
EDIT - The link now points to separate part of the page where you can not only access the Autobot cars, but the leaders, the minicars, and all the Predacons

Robots in Disguise Episode Guide
Well, not exactly... but MrGhoul of the AllSpark has converted a Car Robots episode guide taking into consideration the thus-far released names that will be used when Robots in Disguise hits this fall. It's not going to be exact because when it arrives it will be edited somewhat for continuity, but that's the general idea of what we'll see seeing, episode by episode.

The Dead Brawn Sketch
I (Zac) took the classic Monty Python sketch and did a slight re-write to further the debate on whether Brawn is dead or not.
This was inspired by the name "X-Brawn" in the RID line as compared to "This is an Ex-Parrot!"
