HK-TF.com users lowbcousin and jinxm have shared some images of the Million Publishing Exclusive Elite Guard Optimus Prime! This version of Optimus Prime from Transformers Animated is a "what if" version of Optimus Prime - what if, instead of getting kicked out of the Elite Guard, Optimus Prime had carried on and joined the illustrious unit? Check out the images to see how the team in charge of designing this cool redeco envisaged that possibility.

Not only have the first promotional CGI renders of Dark of the Moon been shown off in Empire Magazine, but the first Dark of the Moon toy - a Movie Preview Cyberverse Optimus Prime - was released at US retail!

Oh, and the Reveal the Shield Voyagers finally made their debut at US retail. Now everyone can bask in the glory that is Lugnut! All this and a very cool JAM Project live concert version of Transformers EVO, the theme song to the Japanese rendition of Transformers Animated.

We can assume that the new update will happen on the same day the figure is suppose to release (or sooner). Put on the glasses coming with the toy (releasing 2011/03/16) and enjoy!

First we heard a rumor about an upcoming “Buzzard” toy for Transformers: Dark of the Moon thanks to DOTMToys.

Then on the Transformers 3 Super Bowl TVSpot we saw a dragon like Decepticon bird.

Still to this very day, many Transformers fans are speculating who this mysterious robot bird is.

Today thanks to Taobao auctions, we are taking a look at the possible Toy version of the said robot.

The description by the auctioneer calls the toy “Laserbeak”. Just to make matters more interesting the toy color scheme is similar to the original G1 Laserbeak toy as well.

What do you think? Will Laserbeak make his Live Action Movie debut?

Whoa! A never-before-seen-or-heard toy from the Transformers: Dark of the Moon toyline has emerged over at ACToys.

It’s hard to tell whether this Bumblebee figure is a custom or an actual real deal. At the moment we can give the benefit of the doubt as an official toy due to the authentic look it carries.

Take a look at the mirrored images after the jump.

Kmart.com have updated with a quartet of Transformers Dark of the Moon listings. While there is nothing sensational about this, what is noteworthy is that the listings come with new, non-photoshopped official pictures of Dark of the Moon Deluxe Crankcase, Bumblebee and Autobot Ratchet, along with Voyager Ironhide. That's not all. The listings for the three Deluxes come with their bios! We've seen Crankcase's already, although we'll include it here for completeness. What's new is we have Bumblebee and Ratchet's bios! They are relatively spoiler free, so read on in confidence that the packaging bio will not spoil your experience with Dark of the Moon.

JustiToys have updated their website with a very cryptic page, showing some sketches of a new custom Snarl toy, with the text "Project 2011 - Update Soon". The sharp eyed among our members have noted this is potentially the Hybrid Scale Snarl originally teased back in 2009. Whether it is indeed this finally moving forward, or something more, the implication is JustiToys are revisiting their first custom Transformer item, with a fully detailed (and articulated) update of the classic design.

As always, stay tuned for more information.

You're probably wondering what these 2 figures have to do with each other. Well a new image turned up today, showing that these 2 figures are in fact, a Walmart exclusive bundle for the Transformers Dark Of The Moon line. The image is small, but it looks like the Landmine repaint is named Comettor.

Australian Transformers Fansite OTCA is sharing with us the details from the Toy Fair 2011, Australia happening as we speak.

The site is updated with the Friday display of Transformers items to the general public (Yes, it's Friday 11th March there).

We’ve already seen almost every toy at the Australian Toy Fair, except one…
And what might this be?… Answer, only griffin of OTCA knows.

“A Super Secret item that they decided to hide from public display when I got there, and made me promise not to even say what it is until it is confirmed sometime in the next few weeks. But it is BIG... big news... something that isn't going to be released in America!” says griffin.

Hopefully the big reveal will come soon… We are here, We are waiting! (No pun intended, Optimus).

HK-TF has posted 2 galleries of upcoming Generations Warpath and Transformers: Dark of the Moon Human Alliance Basics Sandstorm with Private Dedcliff.

Sandstorm is a wonderful little figure and an awesome addition to the Transformers Movie Line. The review at the site starts with the statement “Never Judge A Book By Its Cover”. Transformers fans all around the world can agree with this idiom since, like the Cyberverse line, the Human Alliance Basics line is slowly turning into a fan favorite from the Transformers 3 toy category.

Warpath is getting some attention these days it seems. With the Transformers: War For Cybertron, Autobot Warpath came into the limelight again. Then we heard the rumor of a possible Generations Warpath which ultimately turned out to be true. It was only yesterday we saw Warpath making his Transformers: Dark of the Moon debut. Today we are getting a pictorial review thanks to HK-TF.

Board member Red leader has recently picked up Dark of the Moon Mech-Tech Sideswipe. He shares a gallery and his thoughts of the figure with us:

Dark of the Moon Sideswipe - nice toy but sadly not an improvement on Sidearm but he is equally good in different ways!.

Simplified transformation with no paint apps just molded plastic on most of the toy. Upper body is very nice with great articulation and swing out blades, he is more streamlined all over with the proportions being more movie-verse. The backpack folds up nicely and the wings are still there.

Legs are the problem, they have been made thinner but the rear bend in the knee is not there again it can however bend all the way forward which seems like a bit of a fail, the feet are also a little flimsy and with the heels make him hard to stand sometimes.

Car mode is awesome if a little delicate, if you look at the pictures you can see the gaps through the car where the seats should be.

It’s huge pleasure to take part in an exclusive preview of Transformers: Dark of the Moon Video Game. TFW2005 staff member Seth Buzzard had the privilege to take a closer look at this upcoming video game serving as the prequel to Transformers 3.

Although much information was kept under wraps by High Moon Studios and Activision, we can tell you what we saw, heard and played during this special preview. If what you read yesterday wasn’t enough to quench your thirst to know more about the game, you can listen to over an hour of discussion between the awesome dudes of WTF@TFW via the Supplemental 31 - WTF @ GDC 2011.

You can also take a look at this short G4TV interview with Sean Miller; the game director of Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

Over the last couple of days, more images have been filtering through of Dark of the Moon's Laserbeak. Like Ravage before him, Laserbeak does not have a robot mode - he has his mechanical bird mode, and a high tech bird jet mode. Plus gigantic gatling cannon weapons which look to be interchangeable so you can give them to your other Transformers to upgrade their arsenals. The initial new picture popped up on Ebay - thanks to the boards members who alerted us to that - and then some more new images appeared on ACToys, including a higher res version of the Ebay picture.
