Human Alliance Mudflap Emerges At TJ Maxx

In what can only be described as sightings too good to be true that came out of nowhere, the elusive Mudflap With Agents Simmons And Chromia from the Human Alliance line has emerged at TJ Maxx stores. Released at the tail end of the Revenge Of The Fallen line, Human Alliance Mudflap turned out to be a complete pain in the ass to find until earlier this week. Most times, collectors would usually find Tuner Mudflap instead; in sheer abundance.

The initial sightings were reported by 2005 board members Somafreak38 and diggs74, meanwhile Savage590 sent photographic evidence to fellow boards member Matrix Soul to post up, and this editor even found the set. So yes, it's out there folks. Prices is $19.99 although someone reportedly found one for $12.99. Hit the title bar for evidence that has to be seen to be believed! To give your fellow the collectors the heads up on where to finally find Human Alliance Mudflap in your area, post your sightings in our Transformers Sightings forum!

Review
By the end of Transformers #10, the select group of Autobots suffered defeat in South Korea against the Combaticons who were employed on behalf of the emperor of North Korea. Due to the need to keep the secrecy of the mission hidden from the US government and the world, the Autobot remained in vehicle mode for the entire battle. The battle not only resulted in defeat but resulted in severe injures to two Autobots when Jetfire crashed into Broadside. To combat the aerial supremacy of the Combaticons and Vortex, Bumblebee reaches out to Thundercracker at the end of Issue #10. Transformers #11 opens up with Bumblebee attempting to convince Thundercracker to assist the Autobots in the specific Korean mission. Back at in the US, the Autobots left behind bicker while working in close quarters. Round 2 of the battle against the Combaticons moves to North Korea, with the Autobots taking a new and more effective approach against the Combaticons.

Ongoing writer Mike Costa turns in his best effort yet in Transformers #11. The opening dialogue between Bumblebee and Thundercracker was well written. While not asking Thundercracker to join the Autobots, he asks for his assistance in battle because of the nature of the Combaticons’ mission. In trying to convince Thundercracker to assist the Autobots in this battle, Bumblebee touches upon the regard Seekers are held in as well as the honor of being a warrior. Costa mixes a little humor into the conversation to keep it light, referencing television phrases and finding a means to actually use the phrase “emo” without making it seem forced. Costa also reminds the readers that not everything in a-okay back home. There is still some dissatisfaction in the Autobots ranks and between certain Autobots and Skywatch over Ironhide’s death in Transformers #1. The final act of the issue, the second showdown between the Autobots and Combaticons, kicks the issue into high gear. While injecting a little humor into the battle, the reader definitely can feel the intensity and stakes of the battle. Costa also satisfies groups of fans by giving time to several underutilized fan-favorite Mini-Bots!

Guido Guidi continues on art duties for this issue and also turns in a spectacular effort. His artwork continues to blend in aspects of new designs from the first arc of the ongoing, Classic/Universe designs, and movie characteristics while keeping the look of the character as identifiable to long-time fans. Quite a few close-ups of characters give Guido the chance to portray emotions through facial expressions, and he succeeds in doing so. Action sequences are also drawn well, retaining the detail in the characters while illustrating destruction around the battle.

Transformers #11 is a result of top-notch efforts by both the writer and artist. The issue is a perfect mix of dialogue and action with highly detailed and familiar art. Transformers #11 is a nice long read, which is refreshing in a comic world nowadays where the issue feels like it ends before it beings. If you haven’t picked up the ongoing in awhile, this is an issue to return to the fold. Given the cliffhanger at the end of the issue, it appears that there is more of this effort to come!

- Spoiler tips move inward to appear higher up the back

As previously announced Rodimus will be available in January for around $200 USD

CDMW-12 Master Commander Power Parts Revealed
 
Originally posted by: Sol Fury @ TFW2005.com

CrazyDevy recently posted a teasing image on their website advertising that their twelfth release would be something called the "Master Commander Power Parts", with no further hints to what it might be. Speculation ranged from everything from an upgrade for Powermaster Optimus Prime to armor for Masterpiece Ultra Magnus.

Well, wonder no more. Site sponsors Big Bad Toy Store have put up a preorder for the enigmatic Power Parts set 12, and with it comes an image. It can be revealed that the Master Commander Power Parts are nothing less than a new Master Sword for the one and only Fortress Maximus! In the Japanese Headmasters cartoon series, Fortress Maximus wielded a huge sword, and his Japanese toy came with an additional sword accessory to represent this fact. But fans have long been denied the pleasure of having their Fort Max slice Scorponok in half with a gigantic sword. Well, this piece, measuring 520 mm (about 20 1/2 inches) long is an expensive solution to the problem, but it comes with the added bonus of being more show accurate than the original sword as well.

Check out the preorder at Big Bad Toy Store by clicking here.

We've got a double-whammy of sightings for you tonight - if you live in the UK like me, that is. First up, and it's a first sighting worldwide, is "The Ravage Infiltration" scene battle pack. Costing £26.99, it was spotted at Sainsburys in Hazel Grove, and includes a redeco of Legends Class Ravage and Autobots Flak and Rollbar (plus some military guys for Ravage to maul or for the Autobots to defend).

Second, without picture proof at the moment, is the big one. He Grimlock have arrived in Great Britain! He was spotted at the extremely reasonable price of £60 at a Toys R Us in Harlow by 2005 Boards member ALPHA PRIMUS. Reports indicate that Grimlock is in his US packaging with a 12 language sticker over his bio.

Happy hunting my fellow UKers!

Challenge at Cybertron not getting US release

The first answers from the latest round of Hasbro's Transformers Q&A are filtering back to various sites and with it some news on upcoming Transformers releases.

First of all, there's news on a new Walmart Exclusive two pack. We knew about both toys that we suspect are involved, but here is the confirmation, as posted in a response to CoolToyReview - Walmart will be getting two exclusive Transformers Movie series Two Packs, each containing a Voyager and a Deluxe. Images have already surfaced for the first, containing Starscream and Mudflap. The second which we've suspected for a while contains Ironhide and Bonecrusher. Granted, we don't know which Ironhide and Bonecrusher toys these might be - but we've seen images of an unknown blue Recon Ironhide and an unknown Battle Damaged Bonecrusher. Could these be destined for the same two pack?

Also revealed in the CoolToyReview response is another exclusive - Costco will be getting an exclusive pack with Battle Ops Bumblebee and a pair of Legends - Mudflap and "Premium Bumblebee". We're not sure what this Premium Bumblebee Legend is, so stay tuned to TFW2005 for more news on what he might be as it becomes available.

On a sour note though, The Allspark got to be the bearer of bad news. Asking about the Challenge at Cybertron set, which was initially rumored to be a Target exclusive, they received a response that the set is actually an Asian market exclusive and is not planned for a US release.

Rumor – Transformers 3 Patrick Dempsey’s Char
 
Originally posted by: NIBMRatchet @ TFW2005.com

A month ago, there were some rumors flying around regarding the name of Mr. Patrick Dempsey’s Character for Transformers 3. In the rumor his name was Dylan (No surname specified). Now, TFLAM Blog has received a supposed image of a Call Sheet revealing a particular scene from the movie. According to the Call Sheet that scene is called “Dylan’s Penthouse”. From what we know about Dempsey’s Character, owning a Penthouse is right up his alley.

Let’s take a look at what we know of this “Dylan” Character…
Patrick Dempsey stated that he will be in Transformers 3.
Patrick Dempsey will play the boss of Mikaela Banes in a roll that is "significant to the plot" and he is “much 'darker' than the others."
Patrick Dempsey revealed that his character in Transformers 3 is a Race-Car Driver and has a great car collection.
And we also saw him having a fight with Sam Witwicky.

Speaking of Mikaela Banes, look who just said that she’s going to watch Transformers 3 after all…
Megan Fox may have left the cast of "Transformers 3," but that doesn't mean she's completely snubbing the franchise. In fact, when MTV News caught up with the actress at the Toronto Film Festival, Fox insisted that she plans to check out the latest installment of the fantasy juggernaut.

"I will see it," Fox said while promoting "Passion Play" at the Toronto International Film Festival. "I'm gonna see it."

The actress did admit that watching the battle of the 'bots continue on without her will be fairly odd. "I might be a little jealous when I see somebody kissing my Shia [LaBeouf], wearing my jeans that I ... already had been fit for," Fox conceded. "It's kind of weird, actually."

KOToys have posted a trio of new galleries. First up they have a brief look at the Takara-Tomy release of Voyager Class Battle Blades Optimus Prime. The Japanese release of this Optimus Prime is different from the US one, in that he features the hooks he used in the forest battle sequence of the film instead of swords, and also that his Matrix is painted silver rather than molded gray plastic.

Second, there are a couple of in-hand and in box images of the Famimart exclusive Transformers Animated Deluxe Optimus Prime without battle damage. But the main bulk of this update concerns Animated Jetpack Bumblebee. There are rather a lot of in-hand images of this little Autobot who was recently released in Japan, including size comparison images with other Bumblebees and with Voyager Optimus Prime. As one of the last Transformers Animated toys to be released, he helps the line go out on a high note.

- Opening chest compartment for the Matrix.
- Ability to be posed opening the Matrix, Transformers the Movie style.
- Face transformation system is demonstrated in a series of step-by-step images.
- Double jointed knees - Rodimus can sit down on his knees, in a replication of a pose he was drawn in during Season 3.

- Flip-down visor to go over Rodimus' eyes.
- Rifle is confirmed to disassemble into two pistols for Hot Rod.

This is it, Animated fans - the last of the unreleased new mold Transformers Animated toys have hit retail - in Japan. The latest assortment of Transformers Animated toys from Takara-Tomy, including Wingblade Optimus Prime, Jetpack (aka Hydrodive) Bumblebee and Cybertron Mode Ratchet, have been released at Japanese retail and were purchased by 2005 Boards member Masabon. While there are still some Animated releases in the pipeline for Takara-Tomy, this marks a milestone - it's all redecos and Japanese releases of toys already available in the US from here.

But for those of us waiting on these last couple of molds to finish our collections, the wait is oh-so nearly over!
