Reprolabels have updated with some new sticker sets for your Generations and Classics toys! First up as seen at left is Reveal the Shield Legends Trailcutter aka Trailbreaker, for that added touch of Generation 1 accuracy. He is accompanied by a set for Reveal the Shield Legends Optimus Prime, who includes both Generation 1 touches and a few extra additions as well. The goodness is complemented by a set for Generations Thundercracker.

Generation 1 fans need not feel left out, as there are a pair of sharp new sets for Generation 1 Cloudburst and Action Master Wheeljack. Last but not least, Power Rangers fans, the Shogunzords and the Falconzord also receive the Reprolabels treatment.

Perfect Effect's Blog has been updated with some images of their next release, PE-03 and PE-04. That's right, Perfect Effect is backtracking to cover those two earlier numbers they skipped, and now you can see the reason why, because these two will be unofficial third party custom takes on Laserbeak and Buzzsaw. They are recolors of the previous Perfect Effect releases, The Sun and The Night.

Excellent, yessssssss!

David Kaye has posted on his twitter account that he will be appearing at Botcon 2011 as a guest. In his post he mentions that he will be at the convention on Friday June 3 from 1 to about 4. David Kaye is the extremely talented voice actor who brought Beast Wars Megatron, one of the most magnificently evil Megatrons ever, to life. He also voiced Megatron in Armada, Energon and Cybertron, before switching to the Autobots to voice Optimus Prime (plus Grimlock and Lugnut) in Transformers Animated. David Kaye is a first-class actor and all-round great guy to meet, so if you've not had the pleasure of meeting him before, and you're at Botcon 2011, be sure to take this opportunity to meet him.

More Botcon 2011 guest news for you! This time out we have word that the legendary Flint Dille will be attending. Flint Dille is, to put it plainly, to the Transformers cartoon what Bob Budiansky is to the Marvel comics run. He is credited as executive script consultant for the whole series, and wrote the Five Faces of Darkness story arc that kicked off season 3 as well as the episode Prime Target which gave us Lord Chumley. He is also credited as a story consultant for the 1986 animated movie. And that is not even beginning to get into his many and numerous pieces of work outside of Transformers. A chance to meet one of the people responsible for a large part of the franchise that we love does not come along everyday - but you will have a chance to meet the man himself at Botcon 2011.

We have a report from 2005 Boards member Sidecutter that a new case of Reveal the Shield Scouts - sans Windchargers - has been found in a Walmart in Louisville, KY. On the pegs were a pair of Chopsaws, together with the other toys in the case, in the correct numbers to be the Windcharger case. Windcharger himself was absent though.

Take this report with a pinch of salt of course, because it is possible this is someone purchasing the entire case online, then returning the rest of the toys to Walmart to recoup costs. Although, as Sidecutter himself points out, "the idea that someone returning ten other toys, with numerous duplicates and no receipt, wouldn't raise some eyebrows even at Walmart doesn't really seem plausible. Also, it wouldn't help the person doing it much, at $5 a figure."

Of course, with mere days remaining until Dark of the Moon is unleashed upon the world, it is questionable just how plentiful these toys will actually be at retail - if this isn't a return.

A post on ACToys.net has revealed that a custom add-on kit for the Movieverse Leader Class Starscream is in the works. The add-on set looks to add Starscream's back mounted afterburners from the CGI model that were not possible to realize in toy form, along with a buzzsaw attachment for his arm cannon. It is being made by a new group named "Fans Want It".

We'll update with more information as it becomes available.

With the impending launch of the new Transformers Dark of the Moon toyline, we thought that now might be a good time to share with you this look at some of the Movie toys from the past Movie universe related lines. Our photo staff have been hard at work filling in some of the gaps in our Transformers Toy Galleries so here for your enjoyment are:

Human Alliance Bumblebee by SydneyY - he's been in every Human Alliance assortment so far and he's a great, if overexposed toy. Check out this gallery to see him at his best!

Hunt for the Decepticons Terradive, also by SydneyY - I hear this guy is warming shelves in some stores. This is a great pity because as a toy he rocks! Check out this gallery to see why you should give one a spot in your collection.

Hunt for the Decepticons Sidearm Sideswipe by TFareCool - the swordbot turns gunslinger with this version of the character. He's also pretty sharp with his flame deco - check out the pictures!

Power Core Combiners Icepick with Chainclaw by thenatureboywoo - since evidently Icepick here is the same character as the upcoming Human Alliance Basic release (according to the bio), it makes sense to feature this fun and quirky figure here. Weird arms are all part of his charm, check out the gallery and see for yourself why this toy is so enjoyable!

Snakas has updated his blog with new details of an upcoming Lawsons Exclusive Optimus Prime toy. It is a black version of Hunt for the Decepticons Voyager Optimus Prime - the version with the blades that was released in the rest of the world rather than the hooks version released in Japan. According to Snakas, it is available for preorder with the advance purchase of a ticket for Transformers Darkside Moon aka Dark of the Moon in Japan. The pre-purchase period began on 1 May, and runs through to 28 July. The toy itself is expected to release on 9 August. The item is priced at 6760 yen (covering the advance ticket sale of 1300 yen and Optimus Prime at 5460 yen).

Lawson is also offering a limited edition Optimus Prime metal strap. Priced at 735 yen, there is no need to pre-purchase a ticket for this item. Pre-ordering on it runs from 1 May to 30 June, with the item being sent out from 14 July.

iGear have updated their Facebook photo gallery (requires account) with some images of their unofficial unlicensed Masterpiece Seekers. On the one side, we have a new addition to their production line - a blue and white jet named Current. He's based on one of the many generic Decepticons seen on Cybertron during the run of the early Generation 1 episodes. Talk about him here.

On the other hand, we have some actual prototype images of the iGear Sunstorm. He's very orange! Talk about him here.

Please note these are very early images, and Current is probably just Storm photoshopped to give an indication of colors, given it's the same two images. Please note also that these are completely unlicensed and not authorized by Hasbro or Takara-Tomy in any way.

5Fay of HK-TF.com has shared some new images of the ARX-01 Polaris head add-on kit for Transformers Animated Arcee. The aim of the set is to make Animated Arcee into a better representation of her Generation 1 self by way of a new head and new guns. While the sculpt is pretty good, and we've got to give props to the rather nice looking cube packaging, from these images the finish of the material looks rough and uneven, which unfortunately does not look good on any toy but especially not on a design as sleek and smooth as Animated Arcee. Hopefully, this is just a result of these pictures being an early painted prototype rather than an indication of the quality of the whole run, but we will not really know until these start arriving in people's hands.

We'll keep you updated on the latest involving this set.

Once in awhile we like to do a mix of different auctions with our "Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed and Something Blue" posts. For those who aren't familiar, we do auctions for an old item, a modern item a licensed item and a blue (or something that rhymes with blue) item. It gives a nice cross section of some of the great items we've seen from Transformers over the years.

Something Old
Transformers G1 Skids & Sunstreaker VSZ Giftset MIB

Something New
Transformers Generations Kup, Wheeljack, Warpath and Thundercracker

Something Borrowed
Transformers G1 Sealed Tyco Train Set

Something Blue

With a week to go before the street date officially arrives we have news of another new at retail sighting. This time out, it is the Robo Power Activators series, the successor to the Revenge of the Fallen Activators and Gravity Bots rolled into one big-shouldered package. They were sighted at a Target in Washington state by 2005 Boards member jimmynguyen41.

Canadian fans, don't feel left out! Canadian boards member Megatroptimus reports sighting these same toys, and the Cyberverse releases, at Sears and Zellers.

We have received the latest newsletter from our friends at TFSource! This week, there is a nice restock on some older items from years past you might have missed out on, including Alternators like Mirage and Decepticharge, Armada toys like Optimus Prime and Starscream, plus Energon toys including Energon Optimus Prime and the rare Shockblast (a good substitute for Classics Shockwave). If modern releases are more your thing, how about the cool translucent Animated Activators Optimus Prime - "The Cool" Edition, a Japanese magazine exclusive? Don't forget the Hyper Hobby Black Rodimus is also in stock and ready to ship out. Last but not least, there's a new preorder for the iGear Masterpiece Prime trailer - not the one they canceled from years back but a different one, upscaled from the THS-02 version. Read on for the full newsletter.

2005 Boards member hierojux reports on another early release item from Transformers Dark of the Moon - the Walmart exclusive bonus value pack of Optimus Prime and Comettor. Optimus Prime is the Voyager Class toy from Hunt for the Decepticons, with the hooks on his arms instead of the swords and a starry detail on his windshield. Comettor is a recolored version of 2007's Landmine and Revenge of the Fallen's Armorhide, and is decoed to look like the lunar buggy. They were sighted in a California Walmart, and doubtless are in stockrooms ready to go out on endcaps next week with the official launch of the Dark of the Moon toyline.

Keep up to date with the latest sightings in your area in our Transformers sightings forum.

On May 8, 1984, the first issue of Marvel Comics Transformers miniseries was published, and our favorite Robots in Disguise were unleashed upon the world. 27 years, dozens of cartoons and two blockbuster summer action movies later and Transformers is still going strong.

Botcon has announced its next guest for Botcon 2011! Greg Berger will be appearing at Botcon 2011. Greg is responsible for providing the voices of many of my personal favorite characters from Generation 1 including Hall of Fame hopeful Grimlock! He also voiced Skyfire, Outback and Longhaul in Generation 1. Beyond Transformers, Greg Berger provided the voices of Spirit, Firefly, Cutter and Ripcord on GI Joe, and Cornfed on Duckman, and that's just the tip of a very impressive resume.

Be sure to meet Greg Berger this summer at Botcon 2011, or if you're in the UK he will also be attending Auto Assembly 2011.

At this point, it is becoming obvious that just about every toy due for a release on 16 May is going to be found in advance of the street date. Today's sighting: the Robo Power Bash Bots! This assortment consists of a pair of two packs with "smash and bash" action - the toys are attached to little bases that allow you to crash them into each other, transform them and make them duke it out, just like the head on collision shown briefly in the film trailer! They were sighted at a Target in Washington by 2005 boards member jimmynguyen41.

It's been awhile since we've heard anything about Transformers Prime toys, but now thanks to UK wholesale listings obtained from FullMetalHero.com we now know that we will be getting voyager figures in the line!

Not that we thought they wouldnt but its nice to finally see some Transformers: Prime listings at UK wholesale, confirmed this month we have the following assortments listed from Hasbro UK
  • 1) Prime Deluxe Assortment
  • 2) Prime Voyager Assortment
  • 3) Prime Entertainment Pack
  • 4) Prime Role Play Blaster
No release date is currently scheduled but hopefully more news will follow soon. With Botcon and SDCC coming up we're sure to get more news on when our cousins in the USA will be getting their fix aswell as being able to get their hands on that sweet SDCC Exclusive Deluxe Transformers Prime Optimus with Matrix.

Which characters will be in the 1st wave of Transformers Prime voyager figures?

Thanks to Red Leader from Kapow Toys, we have the first images of the ALL NEW Masterpiece Convoy from Takara and Hasbro, MP-10. The figure seems a bit smaller than the previous version, in line with the recent Rodimus Convoy. A more animated look. And a trailer with repair bay bot and roller!

Transformers: Dark of the Moon star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley had a chat with Ellen about the plot of her 1st flick.

“.... I had such a blast on this movie, it looks insane... It was such a great shoot. The movie looks insane. It starts back in 1969 when NASA went to the moon, and they unveiled a top secret when they were there and it’s been kept under wraps until now. And now the Decepticons, if you’ve watched the last movies, the bad ones, they want the top secret that we’ve found.”


After the recording, Rosie tweeted…

“Hi guys I just did my very first talk show!! I went on the @TheEllenShow it will air 4pm on Tuesday, May 10th on NBC. Check it out! X”

Hasbro Hong Kong have updated their t.sina account with our first official photography of Nitro Bumblebee. Nitro Bumblebee is Bumblebee kitted out with armor and thrusters like the Wreckers - not sure if he will appear like this in the film or be a toy only character, but he's a nice looking toy at any rate. Check out the mirrored image by clicking the thumbnail to the left.

There's also a new image of the Dark of the Moon Deluxe Autobot Skids, still of interest though we've seen official images of that guy before now.

She is also tipped to be in this year's script reading as Decepticon Drag Strip. Check out the full announcement at Botcon.com.

Recently revealed Transformers: Dark of the Moon Posters and Banners as well as new Banners are starting to show-up everywhere.

The most recent news comes from MTV, who took a visit to take a look at the decorations going up for the 2011 Cannes Film Festival in France. We are treated with a new banner of Starscream for Transformers 3.

Meanwhile, TFW2005 member ElectricPrada09 is super cool enough to share with us the Official DOTM Poster we saw not too long ago. He is also sharing with us a valuable information regarding the poster. As it turns out… this poster is a Teaser Poster, very much like the “Fallen Poster” we got for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Therefore there is a good chance that the Theatrical Poster is on its way.

Also, he is bringing us the In-Hand Look at the Shockwave Banner as well.

Checkout ElectricPrada09’s Poster Thread here and the Banner thread here.

Another guest announcement from Botcon.com - Botcon 2011's fourth guest is Neil Ross, the voice of Springer! Springer is a quintessential member of the season 3 Autobot team and a major character in the 1986 animated movie. But Neil Ross also voiced some other pretty major Generation 1 Transformers such as Hook, Slag, and Bonecrusher. Hmmm, we've got half the voices of the Constructicons (or two of the Dinobots if you prefer) with Gregg Berger attending this year as well!

Remember the Starscream Banner we were talking about yesterday? It turns out that the Banner is no ordinary one. It’s a Digital Banner… Yeah! You know where this is going. So, long story short… New Footage; Mirage, Shockwave, Optimus Prime Transforming and Bumblebee Transforming (And it looks epic. Seems as though we got some great Transformation footage this time.), Simmons and much more.

The video is embedded below… take a look.

Sure, the name must be familiar… We’ve all known Fireburst Optimus Prime as the Legends Class version issued for the the Hunt For The Decepticons Campaign.

Well, now we have the Voyager Class Version.

Toys “R” Us, Hong Kong (who are awesome when it comes to Transformers Promotion Campaigns) has dedicated a page for Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

You’ll find info regarding Character Bios, Promotions for the Asian region and an upcoming Downloads section.

Oh! Transformers: Dark of the Moon Voyager Class Fireburst Optimus Prime Bio…

OPTIMUS PRIME® fights with the utmost valor, courage and power. His dominance over the DECEPTICONS® is due to countless centuries of battle experience, a mighty armament and a virtuous Spark. Even so, widespread threats to the AUTOBOTS® and OPTIMUS PRIME still exist - there is no time to rest, there is no time for defeat, there is only time for victory!

An auction has appeared on Yahoo Japan for Decepticon Hatchet in Package. The third of the Dreads is a Commander Class Cyberverse toy, who transforms into a jet. We've seen some pictures of him before, and his bio appeared on Hasbro's Transformers website when it relaunched, but here is all that Dread Decepticon goodness in one neat and tidy package. He's looking like another homerun for this sizeclass.
