Thanks to the Facebook page of Autobase Aichi, we have new images of two Toys 'R Us Japan exclusives. The first new batch of images are of the Micron Carnivac, which is a dual homage of Carnivac, the Decepticon Pretender, and of course Lockdown's wolf-minions from the most recent Transformers blockbuster Age of Extinction (also known as Steeljaw). Carnivac is available in Japan with a purchase of Transformers product at TRU, while supplies last.
The second group of images is of Rollbar, essentially the rally race car of Shane Dyson from AOE. This figure appears to be the same figure that can be found in the Breakout Battle (AKA farmageddon) set. Rollbar will be an exclusive release in Japan through TRU stores. Check out the thread for Carnivac here, and head over to discuss Rollbar with the discussion link below. |

Following up on our recently reported sighting of the Platinum Edition Optimus Prime with Sideswipe two-pack, we have some more sightings to report as well as some better news on the pricing for these exclusives. TFW2005 cdavid3 board member has reported seeing the Optimus Prime and Grimlock leader class two pack at the Toys 'R Us in Times Square, with a price point of $127.99.
Along with this news we also received a tip from TFW2005 member HBCoffin that the Platinum two-pack with Optimus Prime and Sideswipe is listed on the Toys 'R Us website for a listed price of $169.99, a little easier to swallow than the first reported price of $196.99. We can hope that price for the Prime and Grimlock two-pack will also see a decrease. Make the jump to discuss with fellow fans! |

Third Party / Independent group Perfect Effect just dropped an awesome update containing new images of their Leonidas prototype! Leonidas is Perfect Effect's attempt at homaging the Beast Wars II character Lio Convoy. The prototype images show off the bulk of the figure, range of articulation in the arms (such as gripping the sword on the figure's hip), a side view of its beast mode, and a size comparison with MP-10, which shows Leonidas nearly eye to eye with Masterpiece Optimus Prime!
No pricing or release info was provided, only the message of "coming soon." We'll keep you updated as we learn more! Make the jump to discuss! |

A small bit of news for you to start your day with, one that may help a purchasing decision for you as well. Takara Tomy designer Hisashi Yuki tweeted a comparison picture of Takara's Legends Brainstorm and Hasbro's Generations Brainstorm. In the image provided we have a great look at the differences between the two figures, the biggest of which is Takara's added paint details on the wings, chest, and abdomen area. We'll let the picture do most of the talking, but be sure to sound off with the discussion link below and let us know which figure you're digging more!

Zap2it have updated their schedule with details of the next three episodes of Transformers Rescue Bots season 3. While as with previous updates, their details all just show today's date for the airing, we are of the view that these are going to air on the first three Saturdays of December.
Of note also is that one of the three episodes is "The Riders of Midwinter", which was a special holiday episode produced as a part of season 2's order of episodes, but was held back so that it would air in midwinter. Check out the full details of the three episodes below - and don't forget to tune in to Discovery Family Channel every Saturday at 1:30 PM EST for all-new episodes of Transformers Rescue Bots! S3 E7 Bugs in the System (Airs December 6, 2014) Doctor Morocco proves that even small pests can pose dangerous threats to Griffin Rock. S3 E8 Switcheroo (Airs December 13, 2014) A space nebula causes the Rescue Bots and Burns family to switch personalities. S3 E9 The Riders of Midwinter (Airs December 20, 2014) Terrible winter storm threatens holiday in Griffin Rock; the Bots take on new responsibilities. |

Next week's comics include the first issues of the Angry Birds Transformers and Drift: Empire of Stone miniseries.

Comic Book Resources recently sat down with the writer of the soon to be concluded comic trilogy of Autocracy, Monstrosity, and Primacy, Flint Dille, for an interview about the series as a whole and the final issue Primacy #4, which was released today.
The interview does contain too much as far as spoilers go, as it covers the series as a whole and some additional background of Dille, but as always proceed at your own risk just to be safe. Make the jump to talk more about Primacy #4 and the conclusion of this comic trilogy! |

Takara-Tomy's TF_PR Twitter account has shared a new image of the Amazon Japan exclusive redeco of Age of Extinction Hound. This redeco of the Autobot Voyager class toy sports a premium deco intended to be more accurate to his on-screen appearance.
This version of Hound is due for a release in early December and comes as an exclusive pack-in with the Japanese Age of Extinction DVD and Blu Ray when purchased through Amazon Japan. |

Kotobukiya have updated their website with new images of their D-Style Megatron. This poseable little Decepticon leader is done in the traditional Japanese super-deformed style and comes with alternate faces for different expressions along with his energy flail and even a little gun mode Megatron.

Composer Steve Jablonsky updated his Facebook Page to explain why Transformers: Age Of Extinction Score was removed from iTunes:
"Now because you guys are so awesome, the TF4 score hit 15,000 units really quickly. I honestly had no idea the score had been pulled down until fans started contacting me asking why the soundtrack had vanished from iTunes, only a couple months after the release of the film. I suspected the 15k limit was the reason, a little investigation proved that to be the case." Learn more, after the jump. |

The last Generations voyager figure of 2014 has been sighted in the USA! Transformers Generations Brainstorm was sighted in a Walmart in California by Shockwave14. As the holiday shopping season is upon us, with retailers ordering and restocking more product, hopefully this figure makes it's way to your area sooner than later.
Happy hunting! |
