Entertainment Earth has added an image to their order for Generations Wave 4, which includes Dirge and Blurr! The image showcases the official photography for Blurr, who is based on IDW's version of the character and is a remold of Drift with new weapons and a new head, and Dirge, who is a reuse of the Transformers Henkei Dirge mold. They will be released two each per case of eight, with the remaining slots filled out by one each of Red Alert and War for Cybertron Optimus Prime, Megatron and Soundwave, all of whom are due for release in earlier waves of Generations.

Jim and Bill will be known to Transformers Animated fans everywhere as the authors of the two extremely comprehensive Allspark Almanac Volumes. Their other credits include the two Generation 1 lineart compendiums, the Ark Archives. They will be joining Garry Chalk, Scot McNeil and Derick J Wyatt as guests of honour - so make sure you bring along those copies of the Allspark Almanac to get them signed by three of the people who made them possible!

Remember, Saturday day passes for Auto Assembly 2010 are now sold out, with Sunday day passes and full weekend passes selling out fast! If this news has convinced you to attend, head over to Auto Assembly's homepage quick and get yourself pre-registered.

It was another exciting day of movie magic in Chicago Saturday as shooting on Transformers 3 continued. This weekend, the Magnificent Mile has been center stage for all the action.

Hundreds of fans have enjoyed a front-row seat to all the filming, but some Chicagoans aren't too happy about all the traffic headaches and street closures associated with the shoot.

The film's stars and director are well aware of that, and offered a special message via CBS 2 : Bay said Chicago figures prominently at the end of the movie.

"Please allow me to formally apologize to the whole city for all of the traffic and for all of those extra blocks that you have to turn, just to get to where you're going," co-star Tyrese Gibson said. "But you know, we're bringing some energy to city, and we thank y'all for graciously allowing us to be here."

"This has been awesome," Duhamel said. "I hadn't spent any time here, more than maybe a day or two, and obviously this is the best time of year to be here, and it's just beautiful."

It was another exciting day of movie magic in Chicago Saturday as shooting on "Transformers 3" continued. This weekend, the Magnificent Mile has been center stage for all the action.

Hundreds of fans have enjoyed a front-row seat to all the filming, but some Chicagoans aren't too happy about all the traffic headaches and street closures associated with the shoot.

The film's stars and director are well aware of that, and offered a special message via CBS 2:

"Please allow me to formally apologize to the whole city for all of the traffic and for all of those extra blocks that you have to turn, just to get to where you're going," co-star Tyrese Gibson said. "But you know, we're bringing some energy to city, and we thank y'all for graciously allowing us to be here."

Gibson, director Michael Bay and co-star Josh Duhamel stopped for a few minutes Saturday to pose with one of the Transformers characters – Bumblebee, in its pre-robot, automobile form – before an appreciative crowd. They praised the city of Chicago for its cooperation in creating a mock disaster scene on Chicago's world-famous retail row.

"It's just a beautiful place. I've been all over the world, and this is truly a great place to shoot," Bay said.

Michigan Avenue is "the most iconic view of the city, in both directions," Bay added. "It's not like an alley. It's beautiful architecture, 360 degrees."

"This has been awesome," Duhamel said. "I hadn't spent any time here, more than maybe a day or two, and obviously this is the best time of year to be here, and it's just beautiful."

Bay said Chicago figures prominently at the end of the movie.

"That will get around the world, so it will be good for tourism," he said.

Daley, who toured the Mag Mile disaster set, was impressed with what he saw.

"It's unbelievable, especially when everything goes flying," the mayor said.

The traffic tie-ups will continue through Sunday. Michigan Avenue is closed from Wacker to Ontario. So if you're in the area, take Clark south across the river and Dearborn north. Michigan will re-open by 5 a.m. Monday.

The film production is expected to pump more than $20 million into the local economy and generate 200 jobs.

CBS 2's Suzanne LeMignot and Mai Martinez contributed to this report.

This version of Bonecrusher is redecoed to include battle damage, based on wounds that he took in his epic battle with Optimus Prime on the highway outside Mission City at the end of the 2007 live action movie. We still don't know how this toy will be released, but for now, enjoy these new images!

About two weeks ago we announced the San Diego Comic-Con 2010 Transformers: Prime schedule. And on that schedule, we learned that the talent behind the upcoming cartoon will be there to meet us. One such person is Jose Lopez; the Character Designer of Transformers: Prime.

Till now Mr. Lopez was in a silence about his involvement. Now however, he has updated his blog to let us know that he’ll be at the SDCC2010 to give us a sneak peek of his work.

"Hi everyone!

Comic-con is just around the corner and this year its arriving with a big Bang! Late last year I started designing and art directing characters for the new TRANSFORMERS - PRIME show and we finally get to share a very cool sneak peek of what we got in the works. So please come to the panel, hang with us and let me know what you think of our new show. I'll post more info as I'm permitted but trust me this is truly an all star team.

Also I'll be at my regular spot Table H9 in the small press area sharing my table with the amazing John Nevarez. Stop by and say hi, don't be shy, ask people around, I don't bite I believe John doesn't either, so you really have no excuse. I hope to see you there.

I'll be back with more info.

Lopez"

Mr. Lopez also kindly told us what exactly we will find and who we will meet at this year's Comic-Con.

The Transformers Prime animated TV series will premiere in 2010 on the new television network The Hub. Room 7A

Nelson over at the Shoot For The Edit stated that the NASCAR Trio are not Stunticons or Omnibots.

"...but all I'll tell you is that they're not Stunticons or Omnibots."

Again, we do not know whether this is a part of the Misinformation Campaign. But, now at least we have an official statement about them.

Just to make a recap... Nelson said :
#1 - The new robot is NOT Kup and Kup's not in the movie.
#2 - The new robot is NOT Perceptor.
#3 - The NASCAR Trio aren't Stunticons or Omnibots.

We will wait and see what Nelson might say next.

"Since February 2010, I have been working (as a storyboard artist) on a new animation project that has been kept super top secret. But I can now confirm that the show I've been working on all these months is: TRANSFORMERS PRIME. There will be a discussion panel about this show at San Diego Comic Con, on Thursday, July 22nd.

...So there you go... Don't ask me any questions about it cause that's pretty much all I am allowed to say at this point! If you want to know more about the show - get yourself to SDCC and attend this panel! And before you even ask, no I will not be one of the people onstage at the panel answering questions. As a humble storyboard artist I am just one of the many little cogs in the great big machine. But I'll certainly be in the audience and I hope some of you guys will be too.

Later, gang!

Also, he has updated his Twitter Account on July 10th with... "Today we got in some CG animation from Japan of a scene I spent most of March storyboarding. Just rough test footage but cool to see!"

You can visit his Official Website and his DeviantArt page to see his other work.

We are ending this article by thanking Mr. Baugh for linking TFW2005 for Transformers: Prime news. Thanks, Sir!
