Transformers, the globally popular transforming robot character series originating from Japanese toys (manufactured by Takara Tomy Co., Ltd.), has had many official manga adaptations created by Naoto Tsushima. This is the first collected volume of his representative work, "Transformers Allspark" (serialized in "Monthly KeroKero Ace," published by KADOKAWA, from November 2012 to September 2013).

Based on the settings and story of Transformers G1, the manga incorporates elements from "Transformers: Henkei!", "Transformers Generations", and "Masterpiece". Tsushima's signature powerful action depictions, based on the meticulous toy designs of the 21st-century Transformers, and the exciting developments typical of shonen manga are its greatest appeal, captivating many Transformers fans.

This special edition, marking the first time the series has been compiled into a single volume, includes not only "Transformers GT MISSION GT-R" (published in "Monthly KeroKero Ace" by KADOKAWA), but also one-shot stories that were published in the official Transformers yearbooks "Transformers Generations 2010" and "Transformers Generations 2018". Furthermore, it will also include new material drawn specifically for this book.

Included Works

・"Transformers Allspark"
・"Transformers GT MISSION GT-R"

・"Transformers Allspark EPISODEE10: The Approaching Threat" (TFG2018)

Transformers Generations 2026 'Mook'.

NOTE: There seems to be some confusion over the 2026 release and the 2025 version of this mook. The 2025 edition is an old, already released item (as I've already had it delivered by Amazon and it can be delivered so right now. Amazon has got a listing for the 2026 edition, but it's not available to order at present. It might be that some TF sites have confused the 2025 edition with the upcoming 2026 edition, which might be coming out on the 19th of June, 2026?)

The information below is thus about the 2025 edition (mentioned at some other TF sites) and thus now behind spoiler tags.

Transformers Generations 2025 'Mook'.

Released by: - Hero X Hen
Date of Publication: 19/06/2025
ISBN: - 9784801945180
Paper Size and Page Number: - A4 and 96
Price: - ¥3,905 (tax included)

This is Hero X! We're back again this year! Transformers Generations 2025 goes on sale June 19th! We are proud to unveil for the very first time in the entire universe, its official cover art!

The stunning new illustration was created by Director Tetsuo Amemiya, who helmed the *Transformers* 40th Anniversary commemorative film!

"Transformers," the world-renowned hero robot brand born in Japan, is back with its latest official yearbook, "Transformers Generations"! Following its 40th anniversary in 2024, "Transformers" has launched a series of new developments under the new hobby label "T-SPARK." This year's special feature thoroughly examines the hot new generation of Transformers, including "Age of the Primes," "Missing Link," "Adamas Machina," "MPG," and various collaboration items.

Furthermore, it completely covers "Transformers/ONE," which was released last year, including items not yet released in Japan. The newly numbered Studio Series also includes information on that intriguing combiner! In addition, the cover illustration and comics are newly drawn by artists associated with Transformers! This is a must-have visual book that will satisfy all Transformers fans!"

Context for those unaware: These are old designs for the original 1986 figure, not for something new.

Wow, they kinda screwed Octane over, didn't they?

If he had all that going on, he probably wouldn't have to worry about Decepticons hunting him down.

We already have a good translation of that, since three months ago.

And that one is still mediocre with typos and inaccuracies all over it.
