It remains unclear whether this project will expand into a larger venture involving Studio Trigger, but the studio’s connection with the Transformers franchise is not entirely new. Earlier this year, Hiroyuki Imaishi, artist and co-founder of Studio Trigger, created tribute illustrations of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. Additionally, Studio Trigger has explored the mecha genre in previous projects like Darling in the Franxx and SSSS.GRIDMAN.
