Harry Potter and Transformers Claim Top Summe

Harry Potter and Transformers toys ranked high among children over the summer. Toy News Online reports that, in a survey of children aged seven to eleven, of all this summers licensed toys, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 toys took 19.12% of the market. Transformers: Dark of the Moon was second and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides was a close third.

Unsurprisingly, comic properties like Thor, X-Men and Green Lantern failed to make much of a dent. Just check your toy store shelves for proof. Some properties, like Captain America didn't even make the top 10.

More of this news story after the jump.

Some additional images of the Perfect Effect PE-12 unofficial Arcee from Super Festival 57 have been posted on Tomopop. These new images show this Generation 1 / Prime hybrid design in more detail in both robot and alternate mode - the robot mode can also be seen from the back for a better idea of what her backpack looks like. In motorcycle mode, Arcee can take one of the previous Perfect Effect mini-figures as a rider. Read on for our mirror of all the images.

TFW Dark of the Moon Darksteel Gallery

As a little follow-on to our Sideswipe gallery we featured earlier, here's Sideswipe's remold, Darksteel, in all his glory! Darksteel features a new head which has a unique charm all of its own, very different to your typical Movie Transformer's head. His vehicle mode deco is excellent, in black with teal tribal details which looks really sharp. Robot mode is a departure revealing a lot of mustard yellow, which contrasts nicely against the darker vehicle parts. He's a homage to Beast Wars Quickstrike, and the resemblance comes out when the two are stood together - but make no mistake, Darksteel has an identity all of his own! He's been in stock on Hasbro Toy Shop recently, though there has not been a US bricks and mortar store sighting yet.

Well worth checking out as and when he arrives, he's a great redeco of a fun mold.

A fun new commercial for Transformers Prime has begun to air on The Hub. We don't have a recording of it yet, but it was too brilliant not to mention. The gist is that the commercial features Megatron - in detention! (He was sent there because he has "anger issues")

Keep your eyes on The Hub to catch this brilliant little commerical for Transformers Prime!

EDIT: Oh hey, look at that. Thanks to TFW member angelus2402004 we now have video of the (very short) commerical.

TFW Dark of the Moon Air Raid Gallery

Next up in our countdown to the release of Transformers Dark of the Moon on DVD & Blu-Ray is Air Raid! Air Raid is a part of wave 5 with Darksteel, who we put up a gallery of yesterday, and Armor Topspin. Air Raid is the lone new mold in the assortment, a radar / spy plane to shore up the Movie Autobots' air force. In robot mode he's a bit quirky, with a flail on one arm, and the radar dish transforms into a shield - very much like a gladiator! But when you need more firepower, the radar dish MechTech transforms into a blaster weapon. Air Raid also has a variety of different sockets to attach weapons in robot and jet modes, and the fully kitted out jet mode is a sight to behold!

Click on the link below to view the full gallery:

New 3rd Party Quintesson Figure

A new 3rd party group has stepped up to the plate and unveiled their first project. Super Robot Creaticon has updated their Weibo account and their blog with pictures of a new Quintesson figure called Legend Heros-01 Q's Judge. While these look similar to the previously released 3rd Party Quintessons from Impossible Toys, they do indeed have some slight differences. Mainly in their size. They are displayed in these pictures with Dr. Wu's W-01 Non Transforming Shark Clones but whether or not the two projects are related remains to be determined.

The Legend Heros-01 Q's Judge figures are listed as coming soon in 2011. We'll keep you updated on TFW if these indeed come out before the new year. But for now you can check out the new images and join the discussion after the break.

Darren Norris is off to the side as well as another great VA who will be playing a new (to the show) autobot I can't name yet o_0

So as well as more confirmed Knockout for future episodes, we've got confirmation that a new Autobot character will be joining the cast! Who will be voicing them though? Could this be David Kaye's character, or someone else entirely? Join in the speculation on our 2005 Boards!

TFW2005 Member and my good friend shadow2879 told us that he recently had the privilege to visit Hasbro.

Here’s a list of upcoming toys according to what he found out:
  • Two Movie Wheeljack/Que toys – One toy with the movie head and another with the “Classic” head [In my opinion they may have gone for a Transformers: Dark of the Moon Prequel Comic – Rising Storm Wheeljack]
  • Two Mirage/Dino figures
  • Mirage/Dino Human Alliance figure
  • Decepticon Remold of Mirage [Just like DarkSteel from Sideswipe]
  • Purplish Laserbeak repaint with a different head [Buzzsaw]
We thank Shadow for bringing us this juicy toy news. If these do go into production, then I’m sure many of you will have lighter wallets very soon.

A quick nuggets of information for you from the Transformers Collectors Club today. Shattered Glass Drift, the Mech with the Mouth, shown off in issue #41 of the Transformers Collectors Club magazine (arriving now) has had a question hanging over his head for a while - guns or swords? Well, here's the answer straight from the TFCC's Twitter feed:

People are asking. Does SG Drift come with swords or guns? Well... He comes with BOTH! Big ol sword, two small swords and two small guns!

So there you have it, Shattered Glass Drift will have both swords and guns - just like a certain Merc with the mouth...

Coming at you via ACToys is a new image (two actually but the other is largely the same and a little blurrier) of the TFC Dinobots. Exactly what these guys are was something of a question for a long while, but these new images appear to clear it up - they're unofficial third party Dinobots. Just check out how close to the original, official Generation 1 toy Swoop is. In lieu of real Dinobots from the good people at Hasbro, these might find their way onto a few shelves.

Also shown in the same thread is a new look at the TFC Toys Star Cat robot set. This one's got nothing to do with Transformers (its based on a different, Chinese animated show) but the toy design borrows a cue or two from Transformers. Worth checking out if you are a fan of TFC Toys work and want to support them branching out into more original properties.
