Director Michael Bay and Producer Steven Speilberg return this summer for the third film in the Transformers franchise, Tranformers: Dark of the Moon. The amazing visual effects in this film are complimented by the talented efforts of the sound team including Re-recording Mixers Greg Russell and Jeff Haboush, and Supervising Sound Editor and Sound Designers Ethan Van der Ryn, and Erik Aadahl.

This is the first 3D film of the series and will also be presented in regular 2D, Real D 3D and IMAX, featuring Dolby Surround 7.1 sound.

Our friends and sponsors TFSource have updated their facebook page with a couple of new images of the upcoming JustiToys World's Smallest Transformable Sixshot, one of three upcoming entries into their unofficial continuation of the much-loved WST Transformers series. This guy was teased early last year along with a Blitzwing and an Astrotrain - so it is good to know they are still in the pipeline.

I had the opportunity to attend an advance screening of Transformers Dark of the Moon last night in Toronto thanks to the fine folks at Paramount. While I will keep the front page here spoiler free I do want everyone to know it is so much better than Revenge of the Fallen and worth seeing in 3D. I came out of ROTF disappointed with so many aspects of that film, to the degree that it gave me a long lasting disinterest in Transformers collecting after 10 years. DOTM made me care about the Movieverse again. It was a solid movie. Not because it was about Transformers, but because it was well done. Read on for a quick review by clicking the title bar.

Several users on the boards are receiving emails from the TFCC regarding the status of this year's free figure, Sideburn.

"We are still waiting on the Sideburn figures to arrive from China. They are in the United States but have not cleared customs. We are not going to give you an estimated date as we don't know when they will release them to us. As soon as we receive them, they will go to the mailer.

As soon as we mail them, we will send out another email. Thanks for your patience as we don't have control over these different government agencies."

TFcon's expansion to a 2 day convention was made possible through merging with the Canadian 80s Toy Expo on the Sunday of the event. This was necessary due to many dealers completely selling out of merchandise on the Saturday requiring a dealer room restock if a 2nd day was to be added. This year is no different with the Sunday bringing us Canada's largest dealer room for 80s toy related merchandise consisting of dealers selling Super Heroes (Marvel, DC etc), Star Wars (new and vintage), Transformers (vintage and Japanese imports), G.I. Joe (vintage and modern), Masters of the Universe (vintage and classics), Wrestling, and tons of other Action Figures and collectibles. We will also welcome new guests to the convention on the Sunday.

TFcon features Canada's largest dealer room for Transformers merchandise, question and answer panels and autograph sessions with many special guests including Transformers writer Simon Furman and Transformers voice actors Garry Chalk and Paul Eiding; artists Joe Ng, Alex Milne with more TBA, a costume and customs contest and fan discussion panels.

TFcon - Canada's 10th Annual Transformers Collectors Convention is July 30th and 31st, 2011 at the Delta Meadowvale Resort and Conference Centre in Mississauga, Ontario with free parking. You can book your hotel room for TFcon 2011 via the hotel reservation website and preorder the TFcon 2011 exclusive Stronghold figure and preregister for TFcon 2011 before July 15th.

Fansproject have carried out a major overhaul of their website. The new website offers, amongst other things, firm release dates of the next three Causality releases (CA-03, 04 and 05, aka the Not-Insecticons. Pictured is Backfirey, or "my boy" to 2005 Boards Admin Kickback). The new website also features a product catalog and an ability to choose from one of three factions, Alpha Core, Beta Exodus and the Crystallon Horde. This is touted to directly affect one or more upcoming products, though how is unclear.

Check out the new look Fansproject Core.

Transformers Dark of the Moon has officially premiered to the general public in the United States (I just got back myself). Since we are a community with a very active message board, it's time to sound off!

What did you think about Transformers Dark of the Moon? Better than the 1st? Better than the 2nd? Best movie ever? Or, do you think it was scrap?

Let us know by sounding off in our Transformers Movie Discussion Forum. There are tons of different threads on every aspect of the movie, and if there isn't one for what you're thinking, you can start one!

Have fun, keep it civil, and then go back and see DOTM again tomorrow.

Enjoy!

We have recently received some interesting news from BTS Toys. What you see here is a look at a proposed redeco of their Sonicron. Sonicron Black Version is a homage to Soundblaster, the black redeco of Soundwave originally from Transformers The Headmasters (called "New Soundwave" in the STAR TV dub). This is a hand-painted prototype here, but it should give you a flavor of what BTS intends to do with the Sonicron's redeco - and the mold looks exceptionally sharp in red and black.

As with the regular edition, Sonicron Black Version comes with multiple weapons and two heads - a Generation 1 styled one, and a War for Cybertron inspired one. This leaves it in your hands if you want Sonicron to be a straight out recolor on your shelves, or a version with an alternate loadout of weapons and a different head - a very nice touch.

Stay tuned for more news and our own review / gallery of the original blue Soundwave inspired Sonicron.

Peaugh has posted a very informative review of Optimus Prime, which Hasbro proudly states is the biggest Optimus Prime figure. The trailer doesn't disappear, instead it become an exo-suit.



This figure has been a source of debate since it was unveiled at Toy Fair. Whether you were wondering about its articulation, if it was mistransformed in the official images that Hasbro sent out, or just wondering how it turned out, the video should clear things up!

According to Deadline, Transformers Dark of the Moon did a total of 13.5 Million for Tuesday IMAX 3D and Midnight and later Wednesday showings. This is less than Revenge of the Fallen, but it's a different world today, and people are less likely to spend 40 bucks to stay up late during the week . Plus, not all folks had access to IMAX or 3d Theaters late last night and want to wait for that.

Some are predicting 200 Million by July 4th, and 1 Billion worldwide in the end. What do you guys think? Sound off in here: Early Midnight Totals Are In!

An update from Shout! Factory regarding their Transformers The Headmasters DVD release - it's not coming to Walmart or Target brick & mortar stores. The official word came to us earlier:

Because it is Japanese w/ subtitling and so appeals to a specific Transformers fan, it is not physically in WalMart or Target stores. It is in Best Buy and Transworld (FYE) stores and many other retailers. Fans can certainly get it directly from ShoutFactoryStore.com

Variety has posted an article regarding the upcoming Universal Studios' Theme Park Ride; Transformers: The Ride.

The motion-based ride will tell an original "Transformers" story and use 3D animation, animatronics and the latest flight-simulator technology to place guests in the middle of a battle between the heroic Autobots and villainous Decepticons.

"We're always looking for ways to engage people and show our characters where people want to experience them," Aaron Archer, Hasbro's VP brand creative, brand design and IP development told Variety.

Chip Largman, senior VP of creative at Universal Studios Hollywood, calls the ride "a natural follow up to the films" that serves as "an extension" of what auds have already seen in theaters. "But it's not dependent upon your experience in seeing the film."

Given the popularity of the films, Hasbro is naturally eager to keep the property alive on the bigscreen, as well. Until more films are made, it has the ride to keep auds interested.

To do that, Hasbro enlisted Industrial Light and Magic to reprise its role from the films to create the photorealistic 3D characters and visuals and for the ride, and hired Peter Cullen to voice Optimus Prime and other actors from the series.


Read the entire article @ Variety.

There was a time when Transformers Prototypes were a fairly hard thing to come by. But now, if you want to own a pre-production toy, it's not as hard or even as expensive as it used to be. However, like a few listed below, some pre-production figures are still a bit harder to find than others. So for today's Featured Ebay Auctions, we have a sampling of some of the currently available Transformers Prototypes.

Unpainted Alternators Prowl Prototype
Transformers Cybertron Primus Prototype
Transformers "Battle In A Box" Unreleased Drench vs Smokescreen Test Shots
Transformers Universe Nemesis Prime (Big Convoy Redeco) Prototype
Beast Wars Rhinox Proof Card
Transformers Go-Bots Aerobot Prototype

McDonalds will soon be having a Transformers promotion in Japan, including a Happy Meal campaign. Harking back to the days of the McChangeables (and the photos shown at the Tokyo Toy Fair a few weeks ago), the toys are of various Transformers Prime characters turning into McDonalds' food with Optimus Prime having a and Bumblebee turning into fries. The promotion starts late July, and only in Japan.

In addition to giving us a look at the Japanese McDonalds Happy Meal Transformers, Snakas also provides us with a look at a clear Cyberverse Bumblebee. This one uses the Revenge of the Fallen Legend Bumblebee mold, rather than the current Cyberverse Legion Bumblebee. It's out understanding that this will be given away free with the September edition of TV Magazine - if you missed out on the Tatsuya Japan clear Legends Bumblebee two years ago, this is a good chance to add a clear Bumblebee to your collection.

Snakas also provided a small scan of the magazine showing off clear Bumblebee - check out our mirror of it at left.

Linkin Park is always into revolutionary evolution. 3D is no exception.

Here is Linkin Park bringing their Transformers: Dark of the Moon single; Iridescent in 3D.

What’s special about this is that you can watch it in ANY available 3D method including the Cross-Eye method (without using any glasses at all). All you got to do is to select your preferred method of 3D and you are all set to go. Now, that’s just Prime!


Watch the 3D version of our music video for "Iridescent" featured in @TF3Movie. It will work with any set of 3D glasses.

As we reported earlier, Hasbro has launched their Official Transformers Kre-O Website.

You'll find Cool Products, Digital Builds and yes, those absolutely marvelous Character Bios.

KRE-O brings quality and innovation to the construction aisle. Each KRE-O Transformers set is ‘More Than Meets the Eye,’ with two types of builds: create a robot and then disassemble to build a vehicle, disassemble the vehicle to build a robot. Packed with play, most sets come complete with themed accessories and a poseable KREON mini figure in robot or human form.

Shout Factory has sent an e-mail to it's customers letting them know that pre-orders for the Transformers Takara Collection have been cancelled due to a production delay of 8-10 weeks.

If you've had the set preordered through Shout Factory you're going to have to go back and re-order the set once it becomes available again.

We'll keep you posted as more information becomes available for this highly anticipated DVD release.

2005 Boards member jimmynguyen41 has received and reviewed the latest Headrobots add-on kit, Gyro. Headrobots Gyro is an upgrade kit for Revenge of the Fallen Whirl, from the Masters of Metalikato two pack. It was exclusively available through online store Megatoyfan. It's a true garage kit, made of resin and hand-painted, and for the best fit of parts some sanding is needed. Check out Jimmy's review of this kit to see how it stacks up.
