TFC Toys Teases G1 Inspired Combining Dinobot

Remember those Starcat combining not-Dinobot figures from awhile back? Well courtesy of a post on AC Toys, we have artwork teasing three of the figures in Generation 1 color schemes. Shown in the pictures from AC Toys are homages to Generation 1 Grimlock, Slag and Sludge. Since we haven't seen the original version of this combiner get a release, could this color scheme be the first offer from TFC Toys' Starcats line?

Also shown on ACtoys is artwork for their Starcats Protectobot themed combiner. You can comment on that artwork in the TFC "Defensor" thread.

Those familiar with this mold and the history of the First Edition line would know that this version of the toy was never released through the First Edition line and that it was confirmed at San Diego Comic Con to be one of the toys available when First Edition returns to retail this fall as a shared exclusive for Toys R Us, Entertainment Earth and TFW2005 Site Sponsor Big Bad Toy StoreBig Bad Toy Store.

Director Michael Bay stopped by his Official Website to reveal the Teaser Poster for his upcoming movie; Pain & Gain (starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson of G. I. Joe: Retaliation).

He dropped a tiny info regarding Transformers 4:

“The editing process is a bit slower on [Pain & Gain] because I'm in the middle of launching my three TV shows and prepping Transformers 4–which is going in a total new direction and in a way to really broaden the franchise to give it lasting legs.”

Mr. Bay’s statement strengthens what Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner told the press, not too long ago.

A bit of an oddball story for you this morning, as Micheal Bay has teamed up with Doritos for the grand prize of Doritos' Super Bowl Commercial contest for 2013: The chance to help Micheal Bay with the production of Transformers 4. As USA Today states: "The consumer who creates the top-ranked Doritos commercial aired during the Super Bowl -- as determined by USA TODAY'S Ad Meter consumer poll of best-liked Super Bowl commercials -- wins the chance to work with Bay on the next installment of the Transformers movie franchise, to be filmed in 2013." USA Today also states that if the winning commercial also tops the USA Today Ad Meter (which is their method to determine the most popular advertisement which premieres during the Super Bowl) the winner will also receive a $1 Million prize.

Michael Bay Talks Transformers 4 - Peter Cull

More Transformers 4 news pouring in. Michael Bay recently spoke with the Huffington Post and revealed that the series will pick up where it left off in Chicago -- with Peter Cullen back as the voice of Optimus Prime. Mr. Bay also addressed the number one question people ask about him these days, concerning the Transformers Franchise; “Why is he returning for Transformers 4?”

Why do you want to do it? I was under the impression that you were done after "Transformers 3"?
I thought I was done. Then the ride came out [at Universal Studios Hollywood] and the two-and-a-half-hour lines. And then you're thinking, Oh my God, someone's going to take this over. And you start doing a lot of soul-searching. Like, OK, I'm about to do a little movie, "Pain & Gain" ... and the studio says they want to restart the franchise. And someone could come in here and screw it up, you know? So I'm thinking that if I do this last one, we set it on a new footing, we change a lot of things -- but we keep the history of the three in place. But we broaden it so it can be set up and be carried on -- it would have a better chance for survival, I guess. You know?

So with the plot of "Transformers 4," it's not like the other three movies didn't happen? It's not a reboot?
No. We're basically taking from the history of where it was -- or where we left it in Chicago. And we're going to carry it on from there.

I spoke to Peter Cullen at Comic Con earlier this year. He said he doesn't know if he's going to be back as the voice of Optimus Prime or not. He'll be back, right?
Of course! Of course.

You can read the entire interview at Huffington Post.

The Allspark has posted up a translation of the first chapter of the Transformers United EX story, as published on the back of Jet Master Prime Mode's packaging. The story, set around or after the Return of Convoy part of the Japanese continuity (if the presence of Novabots, which were the creation of Dark Nova the villain of that story arc, are any indication) chronicles the development of the Power Core Combination technology and the first Transformer to make successfully achieve "Prime Mode".

Although not stated in the story, it is heavily implied in his bio that Jet Master - an expert in covert reconnaissance from planet Zone, home of the Micromasters - is Micromaster Treadbolt, a theory backed up by his deco.

Here is a strange update from out of the blue - our sponsors Big Bad Toy Store and other online retailers have started putting up solicits for preorders of Commorative Series Optimus Prime and Soundwave reissues - the same reissues that were available at Toys R Us in 2003 and 2007 respectively! We're not entirely sure where these preorder listings are coming from - it's either a distributor warehouse find, or as some are speculating, a possible new run for the Asian market.

Either way, good news if you've not picked up on either of these from their previous reissues.
