TFClub has posted the final images for its TFC-005 Gear of War 2 accessory set. We already knew that it would include a regular size G1-style rifle with bulit-in LED function, minisize G1-style rifle and a detachable LED attachment. What we can now see in detail is the movie style add-on set, which combines with the regular size rifle to create movie style rifle, and can also be used as a backpack rocket launcher (or gatling gun) with its LED shining through Classics/Henkei Optimus' lightpiping!

Want to redecorate your Transformers collection room? RoomMates has just the thing for you! Measuring an impressive 9' by 15', their Revenge of the Fallen Wall Mural comes prepasted - just add water - for easy installation. The mural features all the major players (sorry Jolt) from Revenge of the Fallen in an impressive image. The only downside is the price - $225 - but if that is not an issue for you, be sure to check out RoomMates' website.

Bumblebee visits Sydney in Australia to promote the launch of Transformers Revenge of the Fallen on DVD and Blu Ray! This life sized model of Bumblebee stands 5 metres tall, weighs nearly three tonnes, and took LA Special Effects firm FXperts about six weeks to build. It is being displayed as a part of a mini exhibition which also includes several pieces of original concept art, including concepts for Alice (here simply called "Pretender: Hot Chick") and an early concept of "The" Devastator. The pictures of the display were taken by Optimus 1 of the Australian Transformers fan site Ozformers.

Reprolabels have sent us their November update, and once again it's packed with awesome reproduction and upgrade label sets for your Transformers. There's a special offer running now - for every $10 spent on Transformers stickers, you receive a free Energon Cube sticker (or alternatively you can buy a set of 3 for $7). These cool stickers transform standard playing dice into Energon cubes for your classic Transformers displays! But don't use up all your playing dice, because you'll want one for the Allspark Cube set. This set transforms a standard playing die into a metallic textured, 3-D finish version of the Allspark from the Movie series to go with your Movie toys.

On the subject of Movie toys, be sure to check out the Revenge of the Fallen Bumblebee and Ironhide upgrade sets. Both add many extra details to the vehicle modes for extra realism. Best of all - the Bumblebee set is compatible with any 2009 Bumblebee mold!

Last but not least is an upgrade set for Animated Lockdown. This set includes labels for all three versions of the Decepticon bounty hunter, and adds extra show accurate details for the original version (including for the chainsaw arm of Blazing Lockdown if you want to mix and match the parts), awesome metallic flame detailing to make your Blazing Lockdown well and truly blazing, and details to cover up the plain gray plastic on Stealth Lockdown and complete the illusion of invisibility.

Check out these sets and many more at the Reprolabels homepage!

The next Revenge of the Fallen exclusive toy has been released, but not where you would expect! The Target Exclusive Revenge of the Fallen "Burning" version of The Fallen has been released in the UK and Ireland, through Smyths toy stores. 2005 Boards member tikgnat spotted him first at the Smyths store in Borehamwood, and 2005 Boards member Cungitron spotted him in a Smyths store in Ireland and kindly provided us with the picture proof that accompanies this story. The best part of this deal is the price - Burning Fallen is retailing for €17.99 or £15.99, well below the average price of a Voyager. Will this low price trend continue when he hits the US?

TRANSFORMERS in Space

New comics miniseries launches in January

Rounds out trifecta of new TRANSFORMERS comics

San Diego, CA (November 10, 2009) – The TRANSFORMERS action just keeps coming, as IDW introduces a third new series in January - TRANSFORMERS: Last Stand of the WRECKERS. Under license from Hasbro, Inc., IDW explores yet another action-packed storyline, following the AUTOBOTS special operations crew on a mission to space to confront a new foe.

Fan-favorite writer and artist Nick Roche helms this five-issue series, which spins out of IDW's new ongoing TRANSFORMERS series. This story line gives fans a taste of what's been happening off of Earth as the WRECKERS investigate a prison planet that fell to the evil DECEPTICONS three years ago.

“TRANSFORMERS fans craving that outer-space action need look no further,” said IDW editor Andy Schmidt. “WRECKERS is straight science fiction and action—robots in space with the highest of stakes! But don’t look for all cheery fun and games here. It’s not called ‘Last Stand’ for nothing!”

TRANSFORMERS: Last Stand of the WRECKERS plots a course to a prison planet conquered by the DECEPTICONS during the war on Earth. With no communication in three years, the WRECKERS face an unknown foe, who just might tear SPRINGER, KUP, and their cadre of AUTOBOT heroes apart. Roche and All Hail Megatron’s Trevor Hutchison will provide covers.

TRANSFORMERS: Last Stand of the WRECKERS rounds out IDW’s new trifecta of TRANSFORMERS comics, which starts with the new TRANSFORMERS ongoing series on November 18th and includes TRANSFORMERS: BUMBLEBEE, coming in December.

“While TRANSFORMERS the ongoing series and TRANSFORMERS: BUMBLEBEE are both firmly rooted on Terra Firma, Last Stand of the WRECKERS gives fans a good indication of the impact the end of the AUTOBOT vs. DECEPTICON war is having on the rest of the TRANSFORMERS universe,” added Schmidt. “There is something great for every TRANSFORMERS fan right now in the IDW line-up of TRANSFORMERS comics.”


The TRANSFORMERS #1 ($3.99, 32 page color) will be available in stores on November 18, 2009. Diamond order code #SEP09 0852.

TRANSFORMERS: BUMBLEBEE #1 (of 4; $3.99, 32 page color) will be available in stores in December. Diamond order code #OCT09 0954.

TRANSFORMERS: Last Stand of the WRECKERS #1 (of 5; $3.99, 32 page color) will be available in stores in January. Diamond order code #NOV09 0819.

Transformers @ The Moon reports that Hasbro has applied for a new Transformers trademark. The trademark is for "Power Core Combiners" and is categorized as "toy action figures, toy vehicles and toy robots convertible into other visual toy forms".

It is not yet clear what a "Power Core Combiner" is. Could it be a new subline coming in 2010, or a new play pattern for whichever line follows on from Revenge of the Fallen? Click on the discuss button to join in the speculation on our 2005 Boards and share your own theories.
