Hasbro's Official Transformers Website Theme

Hasbro's Official Transformers Website has been updated to give it a more "Post-Revenge Of The Fallen" look.

The most notable difference is that the ROTF look has been abandoned and instead of the complete reddish look, we've been treated with more Silver, Yellow and a dash of Red ("Power Core Combiners", "Hunt For The Decepticons" and "Generations" colors respectively).

More up-to-date products from the HFTD, PCC and StarWars Crossovers line has replaced the usual ROTF toys at the "Transformers Products" section.

Transformers: War For Cybertron now has a dedicated new section with a Timeline replacing the previous Movie Timeline(Spoilers). There's an additional feature of War For Cybertron Character Battle Bios as well.

Transformers: Hall Of Fame too received a section with info about the inductees (robots and the humans).

"Transformers Videos" section now dons a List View instead of a Grid View.

Also, Transformers Cyber Missions #7 is now officially available alongside the brand new update.

In a recent interview by Aint it Cool News with acclaimed director, Sir Ridley Scott, there was mention about filming in 3D and how Michael Bay is tackling the project:

I was told it was going to slow us down… it didn’t slow (Michael) Bay down. Bay is moving like lightning. Once he realized, “Oh, Jesus… there’s no difference, really. Except I’m adding dimension.”

There has also been confirmation from Vince Pace that Transformers 3 will be filmed in Native 3D which you can read by visiting this link. Will Native 3D add a needed extra dimension to Transformers 3 or will it feel like a distracting gimmick?

While most of us have been busy deciding which of the three War for Cybertron pre-order exclusive character unlocks to obtain, UK online gamestore Shopto.net had a preorder exclusive of their own - a free Transformers Starscream toy. most of us paid no attention to the offer, as it looked like all they were offering was a Legends of Cybertron Starscream toy.

Well, to cut a long story short, I ended up buying the game from Shopto.net as I didn't care for the Escalation mode aspect of the game and decided a free figure was worth it because it was a free figure. You can only imagine how pleasantly surprised I was to find out that the free Starscream toy was, in fact, an all new deco of the Legends Starscream toy. Check out a gallery I have put together for you all to enjoy of this cool new Starscream toy:

We have also updated our Transformers Resources section with a page for this new toy. You can check out his page, which includes a review by yours truly, by clicking on the link below:

Starscream - War for Cybertron UK Exclusive Pre-Order Bonus

At this time of writing, it is not clear if this toy will be released at any outlet other than Shopto.net, or indeed even what the final production run was. Keep it TFW2005 for more information on this and all other things Transformers as soon as they are available.

Takara-Tomy have been releasing the latest wave of Revenge of the Fallen toys - the Hunt for the Decepticons imprint - in Japan as the Autobot Alliance series. So far, none of the Japanese releases have been noteworthy beyond simply being given the usual Japanese reference number. Until now, that is. Enter - Takara-Tomy's AA-08 Elita-1, a completely new toy unique to Japan. Well, maybe completely new is not the right term - she's a redeco of Revenge of the Fallen Arcee instead of the Chromia redeco that Hasbro has opted for. However, for those of you dissatisfied with the third bike sister shown already, now you have a choice of molds, colors and decos to finish the trio with.

We will keep you updated with more information as it becomes available as always. Special thanks to our friends and sponsors Big Bad Toy Store for sharing this listing with us.

Here we have some new pics from the filming of Transformers 3.

Pairing up for another day of work duties, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Shia LaBeouf were spotted on the set of "Transformers 3" in Los Angeles, California on Friday (July 2).

Both dressed up in their finest garb, the new co-stars were given instructions from director Michael Bay as they ran through the scheduled scenes.

With the pics, the Rumor of a Mercedes Benz spotted during the filming just came true. Whether it's a robot or just a prop car is another question.

Sega of Japan has gone live with their website for their two new Transformers Animated Japan themed arcade games - Transformers Animated The Chase, and Transformers Animated the Shooting. With every 100 yen game, the machines dispense a collector card which can be used to power up your characters in game. The cards themselves have photos of the Transformers Animated toys - including a group of new toy-repaints who have not been announced yet anywhere in the world! There are also some better looks at a couple of upcoming toys namely Rodimus, Waspinator and Swindle. The new toys shown off are Midnight Jazz (black redeco of Animated Jazz), Super Sonic Blurr (redeco of Blurr with red highlights instead of two-tone blue), Chromia (blue redeco of Arcee) and Blackarachnia Elita-1 Version (Animated Blackarachnia in Generation 1 Elita-1's pink colors). At this time it is unknown if these were created for the game only, or if they might see release somewhere.

The games also feature a selection of Generation 1 cards, all of which - bar one - are based on the Takara-Tomy Masterpiece Transformers series. The only exception to this is the card for Generation 1 Soundwave who is based on his original Generation 1 toy. Read into this what you will.

Tania Gunadi In Transformers: Prime

Few rumors were flying around that actress Tania Gunadi will voice a character in the upcoming Hasbro CGI TV Series; Transformers: Prime. But, Tania confirmed her role in Transformers: Prime via her Twitter account.

"Working with Peter Cullen (Optimus Prime) and Frank Welker (Megatron) is sooooo cool!!!!!"

Amazingly enough, this twitter update is 5 months old. TFW2005 Members know that the first documented confirmation of Peter Cullen's involvement in the series came only 2 months ago. Here we see that Tania not only mentioned about Mr. Cullen but also about Mr. Frank Welker as well.

Tania Gunadi (born July 29, 1983) is an Indonesian-born American actress. She co-starred in the Disney Channel Original Movies Pixel Perfect and Go Figure. Tania Gunadi has also had guest appearances in TV shows including It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Boston Public, and Even Stevens. Currently, she is a regular on Disney's TV series Aaron Stone as Emma. In 2009, she played a minor role as an alien Starfleet cadet in the movie Star Trek directed by J.J. Abrams.

If we come back to the rumor, it says that she will voice a character called Miko.

The Toys R Us brick & mortar store in question is located in Robinson's Place Metro East. The long awaited Dinobots leader arrived yesterday for the Philippine peso equivalent of a whopping $97.87(approximately).

MSRP in the US is $59.99 and was announced by Hasbro to be released on July 1st but unfortunately that did not reach fruition. Perhaps the earlier SDCC and post-con sell date is more likely the case. Hit the title bar to see more!

GogDog has reviewed the recently released Ghost Starscream from the Transformers Masterpiece line. This TakaraTomy release certainly lived up to the character, as the rumor for it was confirmed, disappeared, reappeared, confirmed, showed up again, and finally the figure was released(but perhaps not in that particular order)! Commemorating the time Starscream briefly usurped Megatron then got utterly decimated by Galvatron, then turned into a ghost and later showed up in Beast Wars, this figure is cast in translucent plastic, and GogDog states that this figure is not brittle in the least and that the parts fit is terrific.
