The Hub website has put up its Launch Line up page and some rather interesting images appear: Ratchet (this time a full body shot) and a sinister purple car which may well be a Decepticon drone.
Artist Ken Christiansen, one of many artists asked to submit concept sketches to Hasbro for use in an idea pool for the 'TF: Prime' Character Designers of Hasbro Studios, has updated his blog. In one post, he provides pictures of some of the art he submitted, including concepts for Bumblebee and Jazz. In his most recent post, he clarifies that he is not a Designer for Hasbro Studios, and that these are merely rough concept sketches for use by the actual Designers. He also provides insight and detail on the design process and all the steps involved in designing characters for shows like Transformers: Prime. Head on over to Ken's blog to see his ideas for TF:Prime Autobots, and then read about the design process in his newest post.
Jim Sorensen has updated the Disciples of Boltax blog with another image from the Ark Addendum. This time it shows background images from the Transformers Generation 1 Episode "Roll For It".
This time, we move to the interior of the science complex, a maze of computers and lab equipment. The close-up of the key pad was because it was a minor plot point; Reflector observed it from some distance away to allow the Decepticons to gain entry to the complex.
