Following Mr. Michael Bay’s footsteps, Actor Jason Statham addressed the recent Transformers Movie Rumors…
"You know, I don't know how those things start. You read them. Someone told me about it. [But] the internet is a dangerous place," Statham laughed. "There's a lot of stuff out there." Not to say that Statham would be completely opposed to a "Transformers" movie: "I've got a lot of stuff in front of me, but Michael Bay is a talented man. This last one just made a billion dollars around the world, so people like his films. He's a talented man." Here is the interview courtesy of MTV*. *The video may not be available for some countries. |

According to Hobby Search, there is now a listing floating around for a MP11 Masterpiece Starscream. The details are translated, but it seems to imply this is a new mold with new features, including a crown, coronation gear, and a hologram pilot. Set to release in March 2012.

Amazon Japan has added images to its product pages for Encore 21 Soundblaster and Encore 22 Twincast. Each of the new pages includes new, high resolution official images of the two tapedeck-bots along with their cassettes. Twincast comes with Nightstalker and Stripes, a black (Shattered Glass?) Steeljaw and a tiger-striped Ravage, who have swapped weapon pods to give each a unique look. Soundblaster comes with Enemy and Wing Thing - Enemy is based on the Microman colors of Rumble / Frenzy and is named for the Generation 1 voice changers and walkie-talkies that used his visage. Wing Thing meanwhile is a homage to Action Master Soundwave's partner, also named Wing Thing.
If you've not got these two characters, these Encore releases are a perfect way to get them and some new cassette characters in the bargain. They are set for a release in December 2011. |

Spanish convention JDT 2011 have unveiled an exclusive item for their event - a fully custom "Nemesis Headprime" statue. This cool little item is a superdeformed (large head on smaller body) statue, in these early images it's complete with the traditional Nemesis Prime black and teal, but also a Scourge styled Sword of Fury! It's still an early version so details are subject to change. A limited run of 50 pieces, priced at 30€. It's based on an original concept by one Raúl Mozas with the collaboration from IaconToys. More information available here.

Earlier today, MP11 Masterpiece Coronation Starscream went up for preorder. If you were on the fence and wanted to see more images, RED MERCURY has come through with all new color images.
Of note is the more G1-centric paint scheme, as the US version of MP3 was white, meanwhile the Japanese version was a green tone of grey. Also, mold-wise it's closer to the original prototype of MP3. Check out more images of the new Masterpiece Starscream after the jump! |

Another new Transformers: Fall of Cybertron article from Game Informer.
High Moon feels like it has some added AI complexities to deal with in Fall of Cybertron. “AI systems generally work by assessing the situation and then reacting,” says game director Matt Tieger. “Which is fine if your character is moving at a baseline speed, or even if you are at a run. In most games you can’t get that far from your initial position, before your enemies have decided what to do.” However, in Transformers, players can transform and fly half a mile away in the time that it takes most enemies to process and commit to an action. This means Transformers’ AI systems need to be extra speedy. “Our guys sometimes have to do some radical things in the background to compensate for this problem,” says Tieger. Check out the full article and Images at Game Informer. |

Ever feel that your Christmas tree is lacking something? Maybe what's missing is robots fighting an intergalactic civil war. If that's the case, American Greetings has you covered. According to 2005 Board member Junior, the new American Greetings catalog for this year's Heirloom Ornaments features a movie Bumblebee tree ornament. Fans can look forward to a Bumbleebee head with lights and strangely enough, movie phrases from "Revenge of the Fallen", not Dark Of The Moon.
The 2011 Bumblebee Heirloom ornament will retail for $25. Take a look at the attached pic and discuss in the thread how you plan deck the halls this year... with Transformers! |

ACToys has shared some images from Transbot's Weibo account (registration required). These new images show off the packaging of the upcoming X-Transbots Glider figure. While the packaging looks great, and the photos show off size comparisons with TFC's Hercules' box, the interesting thing to note here is the cross sell on the package. They tease an upcoming product called "Tyrant". Who appears to be an unofficial 3rd party Not-Galvatron figure.
Take a look at the images attached and head over to the thread to share your thoughts! |

Transformers Dark Of The Moon didn't go home empty handed on Tuesday nights 2011 Scream Awards. The award show on Spike TV features awards for categories such as "Best Comic Book Movie" and "Most Memorable Mutilation". While our favorite Robots in Disguise certainly could've won that last award they did in fact win for Best 3D Movie. Dark of The Moon was also nominated for "Best Science Fiction Movie", but lost to Super 8.
Congratulations Transformers Dark Of The Moon! Check out their win and other winners here at inquisitr.com Discuss Transformers Dark of The Moon's victory after the jump! |

The hunt begins again, I suppose! The Walmart exclusive of Track Battle Roadbuster (which is a redeco of the Roadbuster deluxe from the first wave) has been sighted at three different Walmarts in Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. This toy appears to be in a case all by itself, similar to how the Walmart Exclusive Deluxe Optimus Prime was released.
A bit of a fun fact, this redeco is actually based on a real life redeco as the NASCAR itself has been redecoed into several other variants including this color scheme, which was used for some DOTM concept art. Have you recently found anything in your area? Want to share that information with your fellow Transfans? Swing on by the Sightings forum and share the love. |
