Transformers Prime: Season Two Rolling Out on BD, DVD

Autobots, roll out! Even through the season hasn't finished just yet, Transformers Prime: Season Two is heading to DVD and Blu-ray November 20, 2012 (for the DVD), and November 27, 2012 (for the Blu-ray), from Shout! Factory, in collaboration with Hasbro Studios.

The four-disc set will collect all 26 episodes from season two. Here's a brief synopsis of the second season, direct from Hasbro, "With Unicron defeated by Optimus Prime, what was thought to be the end of Autobots’ darkest hour is actually proving to be just the beginning. The dynamic second season of Hasbro Studios’ acclaimed animated hit series Transformers Prime digs deeper into Transformers mythology as both the Autobots and Decepticons uncover clues relating to secret artifacts of Iacon, Cybertron capital city. Their discoveries could not only change the balance of power in the war, but also potentially revive their dead home planet.

Peter Cullen, Frank Welker, Josh Keaton, Jeffrey Combs, Kevin Michael Richardson, Ernie Hudson, Markie Post and Steve Blum lend their voices to this returning series produced by Hasbro Studios. Spearheading the creative efforts on Transformers Prime are co-executive producer Duane Capizzi and executive producers Jeff Kline, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci. The Transformers Prime series is currently airing on The HUB TV Network in the U.S. and on Teletoons in Canada."
