The official Transformers Facebook page has uploaded some nice clear official images of the next two assortments of Transformers Prime Deluxe toys. First up is Wave 4 with the Wheeljack remold Dead End, which features a new head and new mold Airachnid. Shadow Strike Bumblebee, a redeco of wave 1 Deluxe Bumblebee, rounds out the assortment. Word is Airachnid will be shortpacked in this assortment so be sure to get in early when you see her!

Then to follow that chunk of awesome up the Transformers Facebook page is also sharing pictures of the Wave 5 Deluxes, Sergeant Kup and Decepticon Rumble. Both are all new molds - Sergeant Kup is a straight-up redeco of Ironhide, but since Ironhide's not been slated for a release in Deluxe class yet, Kup will actually hit retail first. Amazingly the head sculpt does great double duty as both of the gruff older Autobots, in this fan's humble opinion.

The first set, DW-PT-03 Prime Guns, has a pair of silver blasters for your Transformers: Prime Optimus Prime. These blasters appear to be identical to the official one that comes with First Edition Voyager Optimus Prime, so be wary if you're looking for official weapons.

The second set is a prototype of DW-PT02a Dark Force, which is styled after a shard of dark energon. It appears pink in the photos, but we are being told it is not the final color.

Here's something that is completely and utterly cool that we thought was worth sharing with you. A pair of clever Japanese model car enthusiasts have built an RC Car that is more than meets the eye. This creation of Kenji Ishida and JS Robotics is capable of transforming from a fully operational RC car into a robot - and when we say a robot, we mean one that is fully capable of moving under its own power and even throwing punches like a boxer. Some real time and effort has gone into bringing this one to life - a possible sign of the future of high-end Transformer toys, ones which can transform by themselves and even move for themselves...?

Here's a new release for those who missed out on some of the Reveal the Shield Legends Class toys the last time out. Kabaya and Takara-Tomy are furthering their partnership by releasing five EZ Collection toys (Legends or Cyberverse Legion to Western audiences). The five toys to be released are EZ Chronicle Generation 2 Optimus Prime, Generation 2 Megatron, Rodimus, Prowl and Starscream. They may be unaltered from their previous release in the Transformers United EZ Chronicle series, but indications are that the five may actually have slight variations in their deco - at the very least, Starscream's gray sections look darker and shinier than the last time out, and Rodimus looks a little shinier too. Could these be metallic versions like the Kabaya Micron series of ten years ago?

Check out the listing on Amazon Japan. They are due to hit Japanese grocery stores at the end of July this year.

After many months MIA on the 3rd party scene, Fansproject is back with a preview of their next figure, WB-002 Warbot Steel Core. Although prototype photos had been released long ago, it seems Steel Core is close to release, as indicated recently on Fansproject's Facebook account. Members of Fansproject Core are now able to access new artwork and renderings of the Warbot himself, and his unnamed companion.

Fansproject has also indicated that members of Fansproject Core may have a change to pre-order Steel Core early. Registration for Fansproject Core is free!

While past Fansproject figures had been inspired by official Transformers characters, Steel Core's inspiration is less transparent. Head over to the discussion thread to comment on who this may be, whether new or homaged.

Staff Note: This is an unofficial product not produced or endorsed by Hasbro or Takara/Tomy.

Here is something cool to share with you. Ken Christiansen, who did the concept work for the character of Transformers Prime Ironhide (and by extension his redeco Sergeant Kup) has received permission to share the concept artwork he produced for the character. You can check out the concepts along with the creator's notes on how it all came together over at The Bad Flip Blog.

Transformers Prime Ironhide Concept Art

Ken Christiansen has updated his blog with concept art for Transformers Prime Ironhide! Christiansen actually came up with this design over a year before Transformers Prime footage was shown at SDCC.

Now that the Cyberverse toy is out, Christiansen has posted 2 images of his Ironhide design, showing Ironhide in vehicle and robot modes. Here's what he had to say:

"As always, the way my brain works, I want the vehicle completed first. I want to see the vehicle cues, and get a sense of weight, that can be translated into robot form and characterization. And colors of course. I turned it in originally all red, (G1 all the way, baby!) but feedback suggested all black to match the current movie version. I may have done all black with the yellow and red stripe, but then Archer suggested a two-tone look, and that sealed it! What a great idea, and I have seen it used since on other versions of Ironhide.

I'm super proud of this design - I think it captures G1, with Movie, and a sense of something new. Of course, I had help, with Aaron Archer's input, and my man crush Eric Siebenaler at Hasbro was directing me on this project, he took the legs of one of my designs, and combined it with the torso of another drawing I'd done, and outlined the movie style gauntlet guns, and did a quick redesign of the gut, and gave it that cool shape where the Autobot emblem sits. Then I took that image, and painted it out, and that's what you see above."

See the Ironhide concept art for yourself, after the jump!

Transformers Fall of Cybertron Official Website Launched

High Moon Studios have relaunched transformersgame.com to promote the upcoming Transformers Fall of Cybertron! The slick new Fall of Cybertron themed site currently features the following:
  • A basic run-down of the game and its features
  • A section for the characters - Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron and Shockwave are present so far, with the promise of more to be added soon.
  • A media section collecting all the trailers and other videos released so far
  • An online version of the "timeline" document High Moon Studios and Hasbro have co-produced, showing where the War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron fit into the larger mythos of the Aligned Continuity
  • Game pre-order details and links
The character section will already be of interest to some of you - it features 360 turnarounds on the CGI models of all four characters added so far - Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron and Shockwave - giving unprecedented early views on the new game's character models, in particular Megatron who now looks like he is evolving from his tank form in War for Cybertron into a form that now also has some slight superficial resemblance to his Transformers Prime design.

You might also wish to draw some conclusions from the character pages on which of these we get to play as in game - Optimus Prime has "Air Strike" under his bio, while Megatron has "hover", Bumblebee and Shockwave meanwhile just get their respective factions. Does this imply that of the four, only Optiimus Prime and Megatron will be playable? Stay tuned for more information as it becomes available, and in the mean time, check out the new look transformersgame.com

CHMS Cage for Classics Ravage
 
Originally posted by: Sol Fury @ TFW2005.com

Here is a real oddity to share with you - 2005 Boards member Sidecutter of online store Captured Prey sent us over these images of an item currently being solicited. The supplier deals in CHMS products, so we're assuming this is one of theirs.

As you can see from the pictures, it's a cage for Classics / Universe Ravage. But not just any cage, as it is based on the cage that the Autobots imprisoned Ravage in after he was caught in the pilot of the original Generation 1 cartoon, More than Meets the Eye. The set even comes with a key to match the cage, based on the one that Hound taunted Ravage with (and later conveniently dropped to let the Decepticon free himself all as a part of a plan to lead the Decepticons into an ambush)

The downside is this piece is likely going to cost $40 as it is made by hand from ABS sheet and rods. Which may well price many fans out of the market for this quirky bit of Generation 1 inspired fun.

A recent Facebook update from Robot Kingdom confirms what some among us waiting for iGear's take on a Masterpiece grade Ironhide & Ratchet had feared - they have been delayed once again by iGear. Originally revealed way back in last June, these two highly anticipated releases have been delayed repeatedly since then.

The new release date is said to be in July 2012 - keep it TFW for more news on these and all other things Transformers related, be it news of a release or a further delay.
