Update time! To be honest, I didn't get to upload everything I planned for this update, but I plan on making a few short updates later this month (expect lots of comics!). In the meantime, enjoy the new material, much of which was sent in or suggested by readers.
We begin with Hemlock Grove--the first episode of the third (and final) season has yet another skin-ripping transformation. I've already made clear that I'm not fond of that method of metamorphosis (by over-emphasizing gore it skimps on the rest of the process) but I know some folks would like to see it. Keep in mind that the special effects budget seems to decreased this season, so this TF is not as convincing as the show's first (which can be seen, along with the later TF scenes, at Dutchbull's site).
On a related note, our friend Ogrebear came across this Brazilian video made for Hemlock Grove's promotional campaign. It's supposed to be prank video, though I bet the bystanders were really actors.

Gladiators of Rome (Minotaur Transformation)
Thanks to the anonymous reader who suggested this 2012 Italian animated feature, which has a surprisingly well-done and dynamic Minotaur transformation (especially for a computer animated film--characters are usually stiffer than in 2D cartoons).
Werewolf Roundup (Werewolf Transformations)
Some howlingly good lycanthropic discoveries from Daymon:
Link (from the Legend of Zelda) has turned into a wolf/werewolf a couple of times, but his most memorable transformation is from the manga of a Link to the Past.
Lycanthrope Leo was one of the first modern manga to be translated for American audiences. Technically Leo is a were-lion, but he's easily mistaken for a werewolf, and hey, he is a lycanthrope. His first metamorphosis starts here.
More manga, with a proper werewolf this time, from Ch. 21 of Cat Paradise.
From the 1987 anthology cartoon The Comic Strip, here's episode 3 of Mini-Monsters, "Adventures at Camp Mini-Mon." The wolfman character is permanently transformed, but during the full moon he gets a bit wolfier.
A fake commercial, titled "Side Effects." The shift happens 30 seconds through.
A transformation from the manga Battle Angel Alita (Vol. 02. Ch. 01).
For Halloween the pug from the Men in Black animated series (season 2, episode 6) transforms into a werewolf (technically that makes him a dogwolf, except the werewolf is anthropoid--forget about the terminology).
Thanks again Daymon!
Here are two last last items--a short animated film on Vimeo (the transformation is at the 0:20 mark) and a neat little wolfman gif.

Panic at the Disco: "Emperor's New Clothes" (Demon Transformation)
Thanks to the anonymous reader who suggested featuring this music video and wrote "the whole video is basically an artsy demon transformation." Indeed, and the make-up is pretty impressive.
If you want to skip to the TF, that starts at the 47 second mark.

Transformation Round-Up (Various Transformations)
All of the following transformations were discovered by Daymon, our resident TF sleuth-hound.
A gnarly lion-monster transformation from the anime Flame of Recca (episode 24). The character gets even more monstery in the next episode.
A caveman TF from Totally Spies (Season 3, Episode 23: "Head Shrinker Much?").
Here's a cartoon I remember from growing up in the 80s: Tiger Sharks, which ran as part of an anthology program called the Comic Strip. The characters were humans who could turn into marine animal hybrids. In this clip from the first episode you see Walro going walrus, and then, after a few seconds, Mako becoming a man-shark. In the next episode, Lorca turns into--well, you can guess from the name.
From the first episode of another 80s show, Galaxy High School, a bulldog turns into a two-legged dog-man.
In episode 24 of The Men in Black cartoon, Agent K turns into a well-muscled rock humanoid at the 6:05 mark.
More for the muscle-growth fans: a bulking-up from the film Heavy Metal.
And one more treat for muscle-growth fans--a scene from the 2006 cartoon Biker Mice From Mars (Season 4, episode 3; "The British Invasion"), wherein mouse-man Stoker transforms into a feral rat-like monster when exposed to sunlight. The scene begins at 1:06 and continues past the opening credits, with a reversion at 11:08.
A humanoid-dragon morph from the manga Kajika by Akira Toriyama.
A dinosaurian TF from the manga Animal X (Vol.01 Ch.02 "Aragami no Ichizoku").
No update would be complete without a NSFW entry, and this one is from a doujinshi called Saimin Sennouen, which has two transformation scenes. In the first (starting here) a man has a bear mask placed on his head, which transforms him into a metaphorical bear and then a literal one. In the other story, a guy is turned into a Minotaur/bull (the artwork's by Nojo).
Daymon was also curious if anyone knew the source anime of a certain muscle-growth gif.
If you enjoyed these clips and scans (you'd be crazy if you didn't!) please thank Daymon!

Ferals (Werewolf Transformations)
I gave up on this comic after finding no transformations in the first several several issues, but Far23 persisted and sent me these pages from the final issues (17-18). The scans are in Spanish.
Thank you Far23!
Rick and Morty (Monster/Muscle-Growth Transformation)
Thanks to Jesse for suggesting this scene and to Serpentstooth for locating the video. It's from season 2, episode 10. Trying to put it in context would just be futile, so enjoy.
