Just last month Transformers Cybertron: Volume 1 - A New Beginning was released in the United Kingdom. Now
Play.com has posted a listing for a Transformers Cybertron: Volume 2 DVD which is set to be released in the UK on November 6, 2006. The DVD is being released by Paramount as was Volume. There has yet to be any news of a release of Transformers Cybertron: Volume 2 in the United States, which seems a little odd since Volume 1 was released in the US long before it came out in the UK. Stay tuned to the
SEIBERTRON.com News Section for more information as it becomes available.
