It's been about a month since we showed off the early cover art for what was then labeled "Transformers: Animated - The Movie", which is the triple-length pilot feature for the new series called "Transform and Roll Out!" After we posted that, fans complained to us that the studio shouldn't change names that way, for a lot of reasons...not the least of which named was the potential confusion with the recent live-action film by Michael Bay.
It seems that the folks at Hasbro/Paramount have heard this complaint loud and clear! The old box cover's picture was labeled "Artwork Not Final", and now the studio has taken that to heart, and made drastic changes to both the key art and the title for this package. You can see the final artwork below, released by Paramount Home Entertainment earlier this afternoon. So look for Transformers: Animated - Transform and Roll Out! on store shelves this June 17th, or else just lock in your copy at the provided Amazon pre-order link:
