I actually spoke with HD today about that very point. We will be releasing information next week once all members of the team confirm their involvement.

Guys,
Firstly thank you from Heroic Decepticon and I regarding this project.
We are both working hard on it, and putting together the website, business case and setting up alot of things to make this a success.
Once we have finalised some major details in the next 2-3 weeks we will be asking all of you to help us support this in all the world forums. (i.e. once our website is done and rockin!
The ideas that have been coming our way are just awesome and for any G1 (or influenced) collector will love whats coming your way.
If theres anything I can do happy to help. Though probably cant do anything:o:(
We have just got the in principle nod from one of our first choice writers to pen the 'tech specs' portions on the back of box!!!
Very excited and will have more news to announce when we work out further details with him.
Obviously, the first ones he (yes, its a he) will write are Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Jazz and Jetfire.
Clue: He wrote one of the Transformers mini-series for IDW...
I don't think it will matter who writes them or what the bios say, the spectacular front artwork you have shown off is enough to buy it for anyway.
I just really, really, really hope this gets off the ground, and becomes real and not just ambition. I would still buy them as unofficial, but would much prefer to buy something licensed, even if it meant paying a lot more for that.
