The 12th and final article covering the 25th years of Transformers was published, which featured developments since the 2007 movie.

There is a two page feature of the Japanese release of Transformers Animated in 2010 including a note that the story and characters will be changed to try to make them tie-in to the live action Transformers films which should be interesting to see how that works out.
