Pre-registration for the next Transformers: Legends event; Last Stand Of The Earth Defense Command is now live.
The event will begin in few hours. "The DECEPTICONS attempt to get their hands on the plasma energy chamber, in order to further their goal of universal conquest. But HIGHBROW, CHROMEDOME, BRAINSTORM, and HARDHEAD recover the key and escape the depths of Cybertron in their overcharged ship. Sent spinning out of control, the ship ends up crash landing on Earth, leaving the AUTOBOTS badly in need of repair. APEFACE and SKULLCRUNCHER, sent to retrieve the key so that the DECEPTICONS can use its power to destroy the Earth Defense Command and conquer the Earth, arrive shortly after the AUTOBOTS’ crash. Working together with some anti-Earth government forces, the duo prepare to ambush HIGHBROW and his allies. Meanwhile, some agents of the Earth Defense Command have found the crashed Cybertonian ship and begin to render aid. Just as the AUTOBOTS are getting back on their feet, the DECEPTICONS and their partners begin their brutal assault. Will HIGHBROW and the Earth Defense Command master their fighting abilities and prevail over the DECEPTICONS? Or will APEFACE and SKULLCRUNCHER crush the heads of their AUTOBOT foes and eliminate the E.D.F.? Find out on TRANSFORMERS: LEGENDS – “Last Stand of the Earth Defense Command”!"

In-hand images surfaced on Twitter overnight of the just released Cloud Rodimus and Shockwave. These repaints of Generations Springer and Whirl (respectively) continue Takara's trend of odd and perhaps inspired use of existing molds in the Cloud line.
First up is Rodimus, arguably the most anticipated of the line to date. The figure is the closest rendition to the co-captain (not even a proper rank!) of More Than Meets The Eye's Lost Light fans have received to date. As noted, Shockwave is a repaint of fellow empurata victim Whirl. The figure features Shockwave's classic purple deco and single yellow eye, and looks surprisingly convincing despite being a dramatically different take on the character. Check out these and many more images in the thread below. Also, look for both of these figures to be hitting major retailers soon! |

Weibo.com member Toyszone posted new images of X2 Toys Rotor and Furrow figures. These are the first color prototype pictures we've seen of X2's take on the G1 "clones" Cloudraker and Fastlane. Along with their Decepticon counterparts Pounce and Wingspan, these figures feature the shockingly underused gimmick of nearly identical robots that transform into dissimilar alt-modes.
Has X2 hit the mark with these figures? Click the link to view the updated pictures and let your opinion be known in the thread below! |

Here is a new twist on Lucky Draw Transformers, friends. We've seen Lucky Draws given away through tokens obtained by buying retail Transformers, Lucky Draws obtained by mailing in a token in a book or just a simple blind draw. But now Takara-Tomy has upped the ante in a new way.
This gold version of Age of Extinction's High Octane Bumblebee will be given away in a draw conducted on Twitter - which we think is a first for Transformers Prize Campaigns on its own. But it's also what you have to do to compete that is unique. Nippon Television Network is running a program called "Real Robot Battle" - a show that pits teams and their home-built robots against each other. In Tuesday 2 December the finale of the show will air, with the winning team going on to face Optimus Prime himself in a special exhibition battle! The contest - which is open to Japanese residents only - is to tweet their predictions for which of the six competing teams will win the contest and see if they have the touch when it comes to facing the heroic Autobot leader himself! Full details are on the Takara-Tomy page for this event (Japanese language) - and yes, it sounds as though this gold Age of Extinction Bumblebee is going to be one of a kind. |

Prime 1 Studio have updated their Facebook page with pictures and details of a bust of Brawl, from the Transformers' live-action debut in 2007. Brawl's head and shoulders are lovingly realized here in excellent detail. Check it out - no word on when it is due for release or how much, but it looks gorgeous.

Via Blacklai and Cybergeeks Alliance on Facebook, we have a look at the new Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Dragstrip in hand. The Decepticon is the first of the four members of the Stunticons to appear in the Deluxe class, and should be hitting shelves in the new year.
These images show us both modes of the Stunticon, along with a look at how the combiner accessory part can form both a hand and a foot (the foot then seems to double as a shield for the robot mode). Check out the images and see what you think. |

Check out the Black Friday weekend savings from site sponsor HobbyLink Japan.
Black Friday Discounts on All In-Stock Items HobbyLink Japan’s Black Friday Sale campaign on HLJ.com starts at 9:00am Friday morning, Nov. 28, and runs to 6:00pm Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 2 (all Japan Standard Time, UTC + 9; check your time zones HERE). 2014 BLACK FRIDAY SALE CONDITIONS: • In this special sale for in-stock and low-stock items, if you place and pay for an order of in-stock items during the Black Friday Sale period, you’ll enjoy these discounts: ◦ Total in-stock merchandise up to 9,999 yen: get an extra 5% off. ◦ Total in-stock merchandise between 10,000 and 19,999 yen: get an extra 8% off (plus another 2% off if you pay by PayPal Billing Agreement). ◦ Total in-stock merchandise between 20,000 and 29,999 yen: get an extra 13% off (plus another 2% off if you pay by PayPal Billing Agreement). ◦ Total in-stock merchandise of 30,000 yen or more: get an extra 15% off (plus another 2% off if you pay by PayPal Billing Agreement). • You’ll be shown the potential Black Friday Sale discount on the final page of the checkout. Your actual discount will depend on the price of the in-stock merchandise in your order at the time we invoice you for it, so be sure not to cancel anything before then! (Otherwise, the actual discount may be less than the potential discount shown when you first placed the order.) • Our Black Friday Sale discounts apply only to in-stock items ordered and charged during the campaign period. Any order handling method is fine. • These special discounts are on the price of merchandise only, and don’t apply to shipping costs. • The Black Friday Sale discount is per order that you’ve placed and been charged for during the campaign period. If you have multiple orders in payment processing, we’re afraid they aren’t able to be combined to make a greater total value, sorry! • This special sale is for all in-stock items except books and other publications. • Availability of stock is subject to change without notice. An in-stock item in your cart may go out of stock if our last piece was ordered by another customer before you placed your order. • If you enter a promotional code when checking out, that discount will be applied first, so will lower the price of the items in your order. The Black Friday Sale discount will be applied after that, so your order may not qualify for as large of a Black Friday Sale discount due to your order’s lower price from the promotional discount. • In the event of unforeseen circumstances, we reserve the right to end the campaign early. • All sales are final on orders placed during the Black Friday Sale campaign period of 9:00am Friday morning, Nov. 28, to 6:00pm Tuesday afternoon, Dec. 2, 2014 (all Japan Standard Time, UTC + 9). We’re afraid we can’t accept cancellations or returns, in whole or in part, after your payment has been requested. • Private Warehouse items from orders placed during the Black Friday Sale campaign period are also unfortunately not able to be cancelled or returned, so please be sure you want the item before ordering it. |

In addition to yesterday's Brawl bust, Prime 1 Studio have announced that they will be making a bust of Ironhide from the live action movie series. A gruff mainstay of the first three live action movies, Ironhide is brought to life by Prime 1 Studio in exquisite detail in their latest premium bust.
Like the Brawl, there is no word of a release date or price yet, so for now, just feast your eyes on these pictures. |

TFW2005 member griffin-of-oz dropped by to share with us some juicy information on the DVD release of Transformers Rescue Bots in Australia.
Rescue Bots in Australia is getting DVD releases courtesy of Beyond Home Entertainment, who have so far released four volumes covering the first 20 episodes of the show's first season. They are following this up by releasing a fifth volume, covering the remaining six season 1 episodes in January 2015. This means that all 26 episodes of Rescue Bots season 1 will be available to purchase on DVD in Australia (and consequently can be enjoyed by fans worldwide, as long as you can view a Region 4 PAL DVD). Furthermore, Beyond Home Entertainment have stated they are expecting to have a complete season 1 boxed set available in around March. This is significant, as Shout Factory has previously stated they do not intend to do season box sets for Rescue Bots in the US, and have skipped some episodes from their DVD volumes in favor of doing "themed" DVD releases. So if you want to enjoy Rescue Bots as a complete season set, it looks like your best bet at this time is Beyond Home Entertainment and their Australian market releases. Major kudos to Griffin for sharing this with us. |

It's said to stand around 20cm tall, with light up elements in the chest and eyes, fully transformable into all three modes without any partsforming. Check out the new images attached to this post.

Some images have been posted on Weibo showing off a color test-type of the Unique Toys Ordin. The image gives us our first look at the group's take on Abominus in its full combined mode - giving us our first taste of the remaining three members in the group.
Furthermore, judging by a color mold test stood right in front of the Abominus prototype, it looks like the third unofficial Terrorcon from the group will be their version of Sinnertwin. |

More images have been shared via Weibo from the SG Collect Convention. These ones show off a new upcoming release from TFC Toys, which is a very boxy version of Generation 1 Ironhide. It might be the angle of the image, but it looks like Ironhide's upper body is much bulkier than his lower body - check out the images and see what you think.

Nonnef and Fakebusker have announced their next two collaborations.
First up is Trivia, a little 'bot based on the Rewind design from More than Meets the Eye. Trivia is being done in Eject, Rewind and Rosanna colors, and turns into a data slug, which we're told also fits into robots who turn into cassette players. Next is Jumbo Scrap, a 1.5 inch tall version of the Scraplets from Transformers Prime. Like the characters in the show, they feature a mouth that flips back to reveal their lethal Transformer-devouring maw. Check them out and see what you think. |

These tin balls contain red and purple candies, and feature the original Generation 1 artwork on the front for characters including Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron and Soundwave.
