Editing More Than Meets The Eye

{{Template:Disambig2|the Dreamwave-produced bio series|the three-part animated miniseries|More Than Meets the Eye, Part 1}}

A series of profile books published by Dreamwave Productions in 2003 and 2004 that introduced readers to every character within the continuities of [[Generation 1]], ''[[Armada]]'' and ''[[Energon (franchise)|Energon]]''.


===More Than Meets The Eye (G1)===
This is an 8-issue series that profiles all characters that were released by Hasbro between 1984 and 1991, as well as a few characters that appeared only within Marvel/Sunbow animated projects between 1984 and 1987. The series also introduces new content in order to establish parameters for stories within the Dreamwave continuity. It should also be noted that a number of personalities were created from scratch for the Micromasters, many of whom were little more than toys and names prior.

One volume, eight issues; published April-November, 2003. The series was also released as a 2-volume trade paperback edition in December 2004, which included introductions by the authors, and bonus artwork.

# Aerialbots through Combaticons.  Also contains a one-page intro story in which [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] (or the Dreamwave Universe's version of him) gains access to [[Vector Sigma]], with the intent of reading all these files.
# Constructicons through Grand Slam.
# Grapple through Megatron.
# Meltdown through Pretender Monster.
# Protectobots through Sidetrack.
# Siren through Tailspin.
# Tailwind through Wreck-Gar.  Plus, the Targetmaster, Powermaster, and Pretender upgrades of Blurr through Starscream.
# Special topics, from the Ark through the Wreckers.  Plus, a one-page conclusion to the Megatron story begun in issue 1, and a glossary.
The Dinobots, the Insecticons, and the combiner teams (excluding 2-bot combiner teams like Squawkbox and any Micromasters) are alphabetized by their subgroup names.

===More Than Meets The Eye: Armada===
This three-issue limited series profiled all the characters that appeared in the Armada product line between 2002 and 2004, as well as background essays on subjects like humanity's involvement in the Armada conflict and the Mini-Con Moonbase. The profiles followed the Dreamwave storyline in its Armada comic book series, though it took cues from the Armada cartoon for various characters that did not appear in the comic series.

:* 1 volume, 3 issues; published May-July 2004.


===More Than Meets The Eye: Energon===
This was a planned three-issue guidebook following the format of the earlier G1 and Armada books.  The series was left incomplete (in that no issues actually got released) due to the insolvency of Dreamwave Productions in late 2004.

:* Unpublished; planned 3-volume series beginning in January 2005. Some finished artwork has appeared on the web from artists who worked on the project, but the status of the text is unknown.
