Thanks to an ebay store selling off a handful of scripts by writer and then-Sunbow Producer Doug Booth, I've managed to win and add the full script for season 2 episode Sea Change to the Sunbow Marvel Archive. As Doug notes in his covering letter, the finished first draft runs 57 pages (down from 71). So we're talking a rough runtime of 28 minutes. 6 or 7 minutes of deleted scenes lie within. With thanks to Jim Sorenson for storage and scanning.     |

All 9 scripts of Volume 6 have now been added. Used my primitive video-making skills to put together a roundup of all the TF scripts and storyboards revealed by the Archive this year:

As an appropriate way to close out a bumper year of G1 cartoon production material being uncovered and brought to the public. The Sunbow Marvel Archive is now able to add one more full storyboard set before 2022 comes to an end. David Wise' debut episode - Attack Of The Autobots - now joins S.O.S Dinobots, Heavy Metal War, City Of Steel, Atlantis Arise!, Sea Change and Cosmic Rust as the seventh storyboard set available online. Drawn by six artists, including Peter "Aeon Flux" Chung, this set appears to be working off the first draft script instead of the finalised one. As the majority of dialogue is completely different to what was broadcast. Also, Act II includes a vastly different look and approach to the episode's central plot device: the recharging chamber To view Attack Of The Autobots directly, head to the dedicated gallery page: The Sunbow Marvel Archive: The Transformers MP 700-19 Attack Of The Autobots full storyboard    |

With thanks to Sharon "Tut" LaBorde and tfwiki mod Monzo, the Sunbow Marvel Archive now plays host to 108 voice actor audition sheets from all four years of the G1 cartoon. With thorough notes from voice director Wally Burr, it is perhaps not an exaggeration to say that some of the characters present have more dialogue on a single sheet of paper than they do in the entire show To view them all in gallery format, head to: sunbowmarvelarchive.blogspot.com/p/transformers-voice-actor-audition.htmlRoll Call Abominus, Afterburner, Air Raid, Apeface, Arcana, Astrotrain, Beachcomber, Blast Off, Blot, Blitzwing, Bombshell, Bonecrusher, Brawl, Brainstorm, Breakdown, Broadside, Bruticus, Bumblebee, Caliburst, Cerebros, Chromedome, Cliffjumper, Computron, Cosmos, Crosshairs, Cutthroat, Dead End, Devastator, Dirge Divebomb, Drag Strip, Fireflight, Gort, Grapple, Gravedigger (Scrapper), Grax, Hardhead, Haywire, Headstrong, Highbrow, Hoist, Hook, Hound, Hun-Grr, Inferno, Ironhide, Jazz, Kickback, Krunk, Lightspeed, Megatron, Menasor, Metroplex, Mindwipe, Monzo, Motormaster, Nightstick, Nosecone, Onslaught, Omega Supreme, Optimus Prime, Perceptor, Pipes, Powerglide, Predaking, Prowl, Ramhorn, Ramjet, Rampage, Red Alert, Rewind, Rippersnapper, Rodimus Prime, Runamuck, Sandstorm, Scattershot, Scavenger, Scrapper, Seaspray, Shrapnel, Silverbolt, Sinnertwin, Skydive, Sky Lynx, Slingshot, Slugslinger, Smokescreen, Soundwave, Spoilsport, Starscream, Strafe, Superion, Sureshot, Swindle, Tailgate, Tantrum, Thrust, Tracks, Triggerhappy, Trypticon, Vorath, Vortex, Warpath, Wheeljack, Wideload, Wildrider, Wreck-Gar, Zarak   |

Added to the Sunbow Marvel Archive recently is a plethora of G1 cartoon material, with storyboards from the following: Unproduced pilot miniseries/Season 1 intro sequence More Than Meets The Eye, Part 2 More Than Meets The Eye, Part 3 Transport To Oblivion Roll For It The Ultimate Doom, Part 3 Countdown To Extinction Unproduced Season 2 intro sequence Unproduced commercial bumper Autobot Spike The Immobilizer Additionally, a quartet of story premises, written by storyboard artist Wendell Washer during early Season 2, have also become available. Along with the early version of the 1985 New Product briefing he was given for reference. Three of the unused stories focus on Omega Supreme (then under the working name of Fortress Maximus), and a fourth focusing on Seaspray. All of these can be viewed at sunbowmarvelarchive.blogspot.com/p/mp-700-transformers-part-1-1984-1985.html  Below is an animatic, edited by me, of the unproduced season 2 intro sequence: |
