In a previous report, we heard about a rumor that the third season of Transformers animated would be the final one of the series. Now we have even more information on that from s250 on the TFW2005 forums.

s250, who in the past has been a very reliable source for various Transformers spoilers and confirmed rumors, has shed to some light on this rumor. Unfortunately, it seems to be true.

The Transformers Animated series will conclude after its third and final season coming soon in Spring 2009. But that's not the half of it. Yes, there's even worse news.

A major character who has been on the show since episode one and has become very popular among the fans will make the ultimate sacrifice in season three. I will not say who, but you can read s250's post in the thread to see who it will be. For some of us, this will come as a shock, but a few of us who bought the season 2 DVD and watched the audio commentary on "Garbage In, Garbage Out" will remember hearing a mentioning about someone dying in season 3.

Finally, it would seem that there were plans for a fourth season, but all connections that would've been made to it have been scrapped.

You may view this sad, spoilerific piece of information here.

So, I guess that means we'll get some other series after ROTF.
