Play With This Too Astro Blast

While not a true "third party" release, we thought this might interest you. Several former Hasbro staff have set up a new toy company to deliver a series of 6 inch action figures with interchangeable parts and weapons. The company, called "Play With This Too", will feature "intergalatic heroes vs ferocious monsters". Each figure will also come with a Tech Drone, which is a transforming sidekick figure.

You might recognize a few of the concepts at work here - spacemen vs monsters was ultimately the main paradigm of the 1988 Pretenders series of Transformers, which the Tech Drones might play into. On the other hand, the designs are original, so maybe we're seeing patterns where there are none.

Check out the Play With This Too homepage for more information.

Angry Birds: Transformers Released In New Zealand & Finland - 25 Minutes Of Gameplay Foota

Originally posted by: SilverOptimus @ TFW2005.com

Forbes and mobile gaming related sites are reporting that Angry Birds: Transformers is now available for download in New Zealand and Finland with Canada and Australia set to follow soon afterwards.

This release is a "Soft Launch"; a growing trend where apps are released earlier than their worldwide release dates for publicity and testing purposes.
Currently, iOS users are the only users who can download it early, if they are living in the above mentioned countries. Download link: iTunes.

Forbes had this to say:
"The game starts with Optimus Prime (Red) and Bumblebee (Chuck) as they fight against the Eggbots created by Eggspark. During play, you tap the screen to shoot different targets and power up your transformation and special powers.

This builds on the kart racing of Angry Birds Go!, role-play action of Angry Birds Epic and the most recent projectile play in Angry Birds Stella. Adding this new mechanic may attract a new set of players to the franchise, as well as long in the tooth Transformers fans.

This is where Hasbro comes in:
"The game makes use of toys to unlock additional characters by placing them over the camera of the tablet or smartphone device. It’s the kind of approach popularized by Skylanders (and more recently Disney Infinity) and should make the game popular with children."

Family Game TV has released a video of the first 25 minutes of the game. The gameplay footage reveals that this game is more of a Rail Shooter than an Endless Runner. Check it out, after the jump.

For those of you who have been waiting....it's here. Thanks for your patience!
Release date is October 7th. It's been a pleasure putting this together with the fine folks at La-La Land Records, big thanks to them.
My homework assignment for this weekend: finish signing a couple hundred copies, which will be available on La-La Land's website as well as a handful of randomly signed ones going out to whatever places still sell CDs. So if you get a copy that has some weird black scribble on it, that's probably my signature.
As always, thank you everyone for all the love and support. You guys are the reason I pushed to get this out.
Steve

Hisashi Yuki has shared a real blast from the past on his Twitter account, TFYuki. He's posted up some of the original pen concept sketches for Beast Wars Second Galvatron. Beast Wars Second (or BWII as some know it) diverged from the US Beast Wars continuity and introduced a host of new characters. Galvatron was the Destron leader in this series, a triple changer who possessed dragon and drill tank forms. These sketches show the earliest ideas of Galvatron, from the first concepts that Galvatron with the drill as one of his arms to the finalized design.

Renderform heads for FansProject Code and Smart Robin

Third party garage kit company Renderform have also announced that they will be making a series of heads for the FansProject Code (aka Chromedome) and Smart Robin (aka Brainstorm). The heads are based on the More than Meets the Eye comic artwork and do not transform - they do however stow in the alt-mode cockpit and they look sharp.

There are a series of different heads available to suit all tastes. The Code head "Chromey" comes in both modern and "retro" versions, the latter being inspired by the look of Chromedome in the Shadowplay arc. Both of these heads have a choice of painted or translucent yellow visors.

The Brainstorm "Stormy" heads are also available in multiple versions, with painted or translucent eyes in both blue and yellow on offer, four versions in all. Red and silver "Virus" versions of all three heads are also going to be released, in limited numbers.

Check out the Renderform homepage for more information!

Renderform Steel Magnum and Iron Magnum heads for Fansproject Steelcore

Board member and Renderform extraordinaire, Venksta, gave us an update on some add-ons for the Fansproject Steel Core figure. You can read his update after the jump as well as view the images of the head mirrored to this news post!

"Originally presented at TFCon 2012, the Renderform Iron Magnum and Steel Magnum heads are up for preorder.

These heads are for Fansproject's Steelcore figure! The heads are inspired by the Armada Overload/Energon Ultra Magnus, which many people felt initially was the homage that Steelcore was based on.

The RFX-009 Iron Magnum head is based on the original prototype design shown off at TFCon 2012. While the RFX-008 Steel Magnum is based on my custom head design. Both heads are available in Steel Core colors and Energon Ultra Magnus colors. The Steelcore colors are limited to 150 sets each, while the Magnus colors are only 100 sets each.

Also available is the RFX-009R Red Sentinel kit, which comes with a metallic red Leo Justice Sword. This head is based on a concept design I did, which the Steel Magnum head is based on. Its also intended to create a new variation and look, when you swap the Steel chest for the upcoming Soleron Ruthen from the FPCore.com membership! This set is limited to only 50 pieces. I included a CAD mockup of how the Red Sentinel will look like with the Steel Core and Ruthen combo, below.

Kotobukiya Z Prime Figure

Originally posted by: Sol Fury @ TFW2005.com

Quote:

Via Autobase Aichi on Facebook we have a reveal of what seems to be a new licensed Transformers figure from the 54th All Japan Model & Hobby Show. This figure, named "Z Prime", does not homage an existing Optimus Prime design - rather, it is a redeco or retool of Kotobukiya's A03 Type K Z Knight figure.

From the image we can work out that this figure mostly seems to be a straight-up application of Optimus Prime colors onto the Type K figure (we can't tell if the head is different as the forearm is in the way, but we think it's the same between both versions). There's some new tooling though, as Z Prime comes with a Matrix. There's no word on if Z Prime will feature the sword and shield of the original release.

This figure would seem to be a crossover between Transformers and an obscure offshoot of Tomy's Zoids line, called Z Knights, from the 1990s, which took the Zoids model kit formula and applied it to bipedal robots patterned after warriors of various cultures around the world.

No word on a release date for this one yet - so keep it TFW for more news and information on this release. You can check out more images of the A03 Type K Z Knight, which this new Prime is based on, over at HLJ to get a flavor of what to expect from this release.

GCI G1 Toy-styled Shoulder Cannons for MP-20 Wheeljack

The newly-formed 3rd party garage kit company, the Guild of Concoctionous Intent (or simply "GCI," for short) announce that they will be making a set of add-on accessories for the recent MP-20 Masterpiece Wheeljack. One of the founders of GCI, Dr. Killinger, had this to say:

"Hello ladies an gentlemen, today I am very proud to present a GCI original product, G1 Style Cannons for MP Wheeljack. These cannons are designed by TFW2005.COM's very own ATP Designs and will be produced in black resin by Froggy.

These will be a The Chosen Prime exclusive and the prototypes will be on display at his booth at TFcon Chicago.

The cannons will attach to Jack's connector ports on his shoulders and will swivel up and down. They will also include a connector to attach them in alt mode! The pegs are the same as the MP Lambo's, which means they can use them too

Jack's Cannons release date is set to December 15 and will retail for $39.99 for a pair and the "wing" clip.

You can jump to the preorder here: Guild of Concoctionous Intent - Jack Cannons"

Notably, GCI is owned and operated by TFW2005.COM's members Megatron31 and Dr. Killinger, who not only make their own projects, but also continue to add contributing TFW2005.COM Customs and Fan Art artists to their projects, as evidenced in the release above. Both of these members are long-time contributors to our Radicons Customs, and you can see their work and the work of many others in our Creative Forums here.

Play With This Too Reveals Desolataur

Originally posted by: StayingInTheBox @ TFW2005.com

Quote:

Independent group Play With This Too, the company started by several former Hasbro employees, provided an update to their first pair of figures, this time we are introduced to Desolataur. So far we have a design layout of this monster figure and a confirmation from Play With It Too's website that Desolataur "will feature the same articulation as our other characters and also come with a Tech Drone." The concept of spacemen vs monsters continues to remain in play, which was the main model of the 1988 Pretenders series of Transformers. We may be reading too much into this being the Transformers fans that we are, as there have not been concrete homages connected to these original designs.

Also interesting to note in this latest round of updates is a little background for the toy designers of this company, specifically regarding the head sculpts which will be made available in three packs: "Along with our figures, we’ll also be offering sets of three heads. These heads work with most 6″ action figures – not just figures produced by PWTToo. We’ve given our designers free range to create what they want to create. “After years of working for huge micromanaging corporations with lots of unnecessary oversight where designers are told what to design by marketers, non-product purchasing focus groups and huge brick and mortar stores, our designers can finally get back to being just that… Creative designers.” – Rik Alvarez" The three head sculpts featured are Terribull, Skull-FCKR, and Madwing, designed by Steve Redinger.

Check out the latest round of updates after the jump and continue the speculation about this new company's toy line.
