Pre-Registration for the next DeNA Transformers: Legends Team Event; Rules Of Disengagement is now live.
Event Description: Aboard a dimly lit DECEPTICON spacecraft, TARN turns to KAON and asks for a situation update. KAON reports that everything is going to plan, and that they should be close to their targets soon. The leader of the DECEPTICON Justice Division nods, and prepares to set their ship down on planet Clemency. On the surface, BLACK SHADOW seeks refuge in the wrecked hulks left behind from a previous war. On the run for taking bribes from the AUTOBOTS to destroy a fleet of DECEPTICON War Worlds, the Phase Sixer stops and takes a breath inside a ruined ship when he runs across FLYWHEELS and the other Scavengers. As the group finishes their conversation, a crunching noise outside alerts them to the presence of TESARUS, VOS, and the rest of the DJD. Unwilling to roll over and die, FLYWHEELS and BLACK SHADOW draw their weapons and prepare for battle. Will BLACK SHADOW and FLYWHEELS escape the clutches of the DECEPTICON Justice Division? Or will TARN and his deadly crew eliminate their targets with extreme prejudice? Find out on TRANSFORMERS Legends - “Rules of Disengagement”! |

Thanks to TFW2005 member Nevermore for linking us to new product images of the Robots In Disguise One-Step Changer Drift, Fracture and Thunderhoof. We previously saw photoshopped versions of these figures back at Toy Fair, so these new images are much closer to what can be expected on store shelves.
Check them out after the jump. |

We recently learned that the the Fan Built Combiner would be an Autobot hailing from the Sea of Rust - and now, the third and final round of poll voting has begun! This round is notable for containing the oft-discussed gender option, which had been hinted at by Hasbro previously at Toy Fair and in interviews.
This time, the following choices are offered: • Gender (Female, Male) • Personality (Loyal, Leader, Independent) • Name (Victorion, Slammoth, Quakebreath) • Nemesis (Devastator, Galvatronus, Menasor) Make sure you get your votes in by downloading the app here - iOS: Transformers Official App Android: Transformers Official App And discuss your choices after the jump! |

Huge thanks to TFW2005 boards member CautionLowSign for sharing two very cool videos with us. At Toy Fair 2015, Hasbro revealed two big time Transformers: Leader Class Ultra Magnus and Combiner Wars Devastator!
We're going to let the videos do the talking, but needless to say this is a great up close look at two figures that will be highly sought after! Check them out below! |

Ladies and Gents we have our first official retail sightings of Combiner Wars Motormaster. Board members worldsgreatest and RudyWilson have provided picture proof of their purchases with receipt from their local Target stores in Columbia, Maryland and Wheaton, Maryland. As per normal, the coasts get all of the love first, but that just means that Motormaster is out and about and headed your way soon.
Be on the lookout as the hunt is on! Also, be sure to discuss what you think of the newest Combiner Wars torso-bot on the boards. |

We are sad to report that veteran actor Leonard Nimoy has passed away. Leonard Nimoy provided the voices of Sentinel Prime in Transformers Dark of the Moon and Galvatron in Transformers the Movie in 1986, but he will perhaps be best remembered for playing the role of the science officer of the Enterprise, Mr Spock, in Star Trek, in a role that spanned almost 50 years from his debut as the Vulcan in "The Cage" to his final appearance in "Star Trek Into Darkness".
On behalf of the site, of fans of science fiction, and anyone who has gazed skywards and imagined traveling the spaceways, we offer our condolences to Mr Nimoy's family, and we also warmly remember one of the greatest men to have graced our screens in both his acting and his voice acting roles. Live long, and prosper. |

More new Transformers toys are making their way to US store shelves. Another one that was recently spotted at US retail is the Three Step Optimus Prime from Robots in Disguise. Three Step Optimus is the sole new release in Robots in Disguise Three Step Changers Wave 2, and as the name should make clear, he transforms in three steps.
Be sure to keep up to date on what is being found in your area in our Transformers sightings board! |

We're kicking off our galleries for the toys from the new Robots in Disguise show with a look at one of the guest Autobots - it's time for Drift to take the spotlight! Like his incarnation in Transformers Age of Extinction, this version of Drift is very strongly influenced by the look of Japanese samurai, though unlike the movie version, this Drift isn't wearing a facemask.
Robots in Disguise Drift is a Warrior class figure, transforming between robot and car mode in a handful of fairly simple steps. He's big and chunky, and definitely feels like a throwback to the simpler style of Transformers from the Transformers Armada / Cybertron days. The look is quite streamlined, giving the figure a very "animated" look to him. Drift wields two swords, which he can stow in his waist armor in robot mode, and they fit beneath the car in vehicle mode. Drift has a decent range of articulation, and can strike some nice poses. All in all, he's a great representative of the Warrior size class. Check out his gallery and decide for yourself: Robots in Disguise Warrior Drift |

TFW2005 member Nevermore has done some sleuthing and uncovered a derth of information on the future of the Transformers Hero Mashers line.
The line will carry on for the forseeable future with Robots in Disguise themed releases, starting with the set of Bumblebee, Sideswipe and Steeljaw (who are out in Canada), and then continue with the three we saw at Toy Fair 2015 - Optimus Prime, Strongarm, and Clampdown. There's new images of the latter three, via Hasbro Canada, for you to enjoy. From there Amazon Canada has posted listings of what appears to be six more releases in the line, which will give us Hero Mashers versions of characters like Quillfire, Thunderhoof, Fracture, Bixk (we assume they mean the lobster, Bisk), Jazz, and Drift. It sounds as though the Hero Mashers have a long future ahead of them - and also, that this may be the only way for fans to get versions of some of these characters to add to their collection. |

We're carrying on with our galleries of the new Robots in Disguise line, and it's time to bring on the bad guys! We're doing a two for one today folks with a look at both the Warrior class Steeljaw and the One Step changer Underbite!
First up, Steeljaw is the wolf-man and leader of the Decepticon escapees in the new show. He's got a cool design, complete with an articulated wolf-tail, but suffers a bit with a heavy backpack and needing to use the tail to balance. The design of the elbows also scares me - they feel like they could break (a real fear, given Grimlock's). Not one of the best releases in the line, all things considered. Next up is Underbite. The villain in the pilot episode, he's one of the debut One Step changers for the line and is quite fun as a desk fiddle toy. He looks decently accurate to his on-screen version, and does have some limited poseability in dino mode. The pair are by no means perfect, but they are decent representations of their characters. Check them out and see what you think. Robots in Disguise Warrior Steeljaw Robots in Disguise One-Step Underbite |

X-Transbots isn't slowing down any time soon with their product announcements. They have released colored renders for two more upcoming figures in their MasterMini line. They have teased these figures since last summer, but this is the first good, detailed look at their bot and alt modes in full color and from multiple angles.
Masterpiece Boost "Windcharger" and Hatch "Tailgate" are designed to scale with the Takara Masterpiece line in both bot and alt modes and look to be on a comparable level of engineering. Both figures come with interchangeable faces, plus Hatch comes with an interchangeable chest plate as well for either a cartoon-accurate or toy-accurate look. Look for pre-orders to be up in the near future at your favorite site sponsors. |
