Thanks to the "Transformers Cars" Facebook page we have some pretty cool set photos from stunt driver Corey Eubanks. The on set photos include actor Mark Wahlberg, stunt driver Corey Eubanks, and director Michael Bay posing for what could be some promotional shots and one very cool photo where Bumblebee is avoiding some type of explosion!
Hat tip to TFW board member neevnav for the find! See the images after the break. |

Entertainment Tonight (ET) has aired Part 2 of their Transformers: Age Of Extinction Special and it's off to Hong Kong.
Again, the report seems to confirm few names from the movie, but this time they are humans: "However, setting up the many explosions, while also simultaneously dealing with distractions from onlookers, leaves the cast with plenty of downtime. When Mark Wahlberg wasn't giving Rocsi tips on how to throw football, he and Jack Reynor were up to no good playing pranks on Nicola Peltz. "We got Wild Weave Wednesdays...when Mark and I rip out Nicola's weave every Wednesday," shared Reynor (Shane), who plays Peltz's (Tessa) boyfriend in the fourth installment of the Transformers live-action film series." But it's Director Michael Bay who caught our attention, when he reveals a Plot Secret from the upcoming movie. Spoiler!

File this away in the rumors and speculation folders, but we have some potential exciting news for you this morning. Coming way via the Facebook page of Transformers Cars, we have some photos of a crew member's hoodie revealing what potentially could be our first look at Grimlock's robot mode!
At this time it is still speculation as we don't have a concrete source for this hoodie and if it does belong to crew members, but some characteristics of this image of "Grimlock" do seem to match up with promo art we've already seen. What do you think of this possibility? Speculate after the jump! |

Fan favorite 3rd party company, Fansproject, has updated their website with new pictures of their next figure in their Warbot line - Revolver. This unofficial Roadbuster was previously revealed at this years TFcon. He will sport the Wreckers orange and green color scheme and the weapons will be able to connect to the figure or his vehicle mode in whatever manner fans want. This figure will also be one of their Heartmaster figures, similar to their previous release Steelcore. The Heartmaster figure, which is more or less a Powermaster engine, plugs into the back of Revolver as opposed to his chest.
Check out all the new images after the jump! |

Amazon has listed a new pre-order page for "Transformers Armada - The Complete Series". As per TVShowsonDVD, the distributor is Gaiam Americas which also does distribution for Shout! Factory. Shout! is the company that does most of the current Transformers dvd/blu-ray releases now. If you missed out on Transformers Armada back when Rhino put them out last decade, this could be your chance to pick the series up minty fresh, if it pans out of course.

Hisashi Yuki has shared some new images of the upcoming Japanese Transformers Generations releases on his TFYuki twitter account. On show here are the Japanese release of the IDW Deluxe Bumblebee, who is being released in Japan as Goldbug, with metallic paint on his forearms, headlights, and chest, plus a blue helmet in robot mode. There are also new images of the Hoist and Trailbreaker two-pack, both of whom feature some metaillic paint applications, and a toy accurate red visor on Trailbreaker. Check out the images attached to this post to see what you think of Takara-Tomy's versions of these toys for the Japanese market.

Recently, we reported of images of the Transformers Cloud Optimus Prime and Megatron figures. Now, official images have surfaced of these figures. These figures are exclusive to the new Transformers Cloud: Guardians of Time collaboration venture with e-Hobby and TakaraTomy Mall. The availability of the exclusives are split between both companies, as TFC-A01 Optimus Prime figure is available exclusively from TakaraTomy Mall while TFC-D01 Megatron is available through e-Hobby.
The photos have been mirrored here, and you can check those out after the jump, as you can even see a few photos of Prime and Megatron locked in struggle! Notably, Optimus' wind vane/rifle is painted black and sports a silver Autobot symbol on the top. Also, his thighs appear to be a light gray or white, mimicking the Generation One cartoon design a bit more than previous releases. Megatron also sports a color scheme very reminiscent of his Generation One cartoon counterpart. If you missed your chance to pick up either a Classics Optimus Prime, Henkei Convoy, or a GDO Megatron, you can take advantage of ordering these for ÂĄ 5,940 each (roughly around $59 USD). |

Ken Christiansen has shared some concept work he did for what would become the Bot Shots line on his Facebook. He explains that the vehicle designs were "just some fast vehicles" to fill out a Hasbro presentation. He did not work on robot modes for these.
What might be of interest is that Ken also did concept work for two more Bot Shot vehicles, Dino and Dark of the Moon Soundwave, neither of whom made the final cut. |

2005 Boards Member GabrielPrime is bringing us some Images and a Video from General Motors Advance Design Center, featuring the design process of Transformers: Age Of Extinction Bumblebee; a Concept Chevrolet Camaro.
The images also show off an unused design with a color scheme similar to the Dark Of The Moon Bumblebee. Chevrolet Camaro is the biggest Product Placement seen on the Transformers Live Action Movie Series and it has helped GM to bring back Camaro's popularity. |

By way of 2005 Boards member uranusdd we have a look at FansProject's Smart Robin, the third of the Function-X Headmasters series. Smart Robin is an unofficial version of Brainstorm, the Headmaster Autobot scientist most recently seen playing a role in the More than Meets the Eye comic series. Check out these images to see what you think of FansProject's offering compared to the one from ToyWorld - and don't forget also that Hasbro will be releasing a Voyager class Brainstorm of their own in 2014, according to a recent leak of toy listings.

For our next gallery update we are sharing with you an advance look of one of the upcoming Transformers Generations Deluxe Class releases. Goldfire is an IDW comics pack-in strongly inspired by Generation 1 Throttlebot Goldbug, the upgraded and matured version of Bumblebee. As well as featuring a sharp deco, Goldfire features a head sculpt which draws inspiration from the original Goldbug's head design.
Goldfire is a redeco of the Deluxe Bumblebee inspired by the IDW Comics Transformers Ongoing series. As mentioned, Goldfire features a new and, in this fan's humble opinion, superior deco. In place of the too-bright yellow plastic is a nice deep golden plastic, with black and navy blue used on the robot mode as a contrast. The head is a brand new sculpt for this toy, and helps to give this mold its own identity as well as taking a few strong cues from the original Goldbug. Overall the look of the toy is superb, although it is the same base mold as the Generations IDW Bumblebee underneath, which had a few flaws which are present here too, such as limited lateral elbow motion and a large number of car parts hanging off the robot mode. That being said, if you passed on the earlier IDW Deluxe Bumblebee, then this is certainly the better version of the mold to check out. Take a look at our gallery and see what you think for yourself: Generations Deluxe Goldfire Gallery |

The GAC Trumpchi E-Jet concept car was on show at the 2013 Guangzhou Auto Exhibition this weekend. The concept car is set to feature in Transformers 4 Age of Extinction, although it is currently unclear if it will be a Transformer or just a cool car for Mark Wahlberg, Jack Reynor and Nicola Peltz to race around in. This concept car though does feature some Age of Extinction inspired decals including claw marks, bullet holes, and special Transformers E Jet logo - though we expect these are just for the sake of the exhibition rather than any indication of what will happen in the movie. Check out the images of the E-Jet, courtesy of Chinese auto news site Cheshi.

Unique Toys have released the final product images for the fifth and final of their Beasticons, Sharpclaw. Sharpclaw is an unofficial version of Generation 1 Razorclaw and is very much an articulated version of the Generation 1 toy. With his upcoming release, the five Beasticons will be able to combine into the mighty War Lord unofficial Predaking - there are some images of him in this news post too.

The latest edition of Dengeki Hobby also had a brief writeup on the outcome of the outcome of the Transformers Masterpiece Fans Choice Poll. As you may be aware, the heroic 5th commander of the Autobots, Star Saber, topped this poll. What makes this exciting is that Dengeki Hobby's coverage of the poll results is accompanied by some lineart of Star Saber, which might potentially be our first look at this new Masterpiece Transformer. Take a look at left and see what you think.
