Ralph and I were blethering the other day and the subject came up about how seldom the Transformers actually transformed on the covers of the comics.
An odd thing as you would think, especially in the early days you would want to sell the idea hard.
Marvel US -
Transformers 42 - Hi-Q transforming into the engine block
Headmasters 4 - Firebolt transforming from Nebulan to gun
Transformers 56 - Storm Cloud and chum transforming
That's it - none for G2.
Now Marvel UK fares a little better
Issue 27 - Shockwave transforming to vehicle mode
Issue 33 - Wheeljack and Frenzy transforming
Issue 89 - Insecticons
Issue 91 - Stunticons
Issue 94 - Battlechargers
Issue 163 - Cloudburst exiting his pretender shell* might need an adjudication on that.
Issue 174 - Cerebros head transforming into Spike
Collected Comics 4 - Brawn and Starscream transforming.
Fleetway G2 Issue 2 - Grimlock transforming.
Dreamwave
The War Within Issue 1 - Lenticular cover
Armada Issue 4
