A picture has recently been posted on TFCToys' Weibo account of a possible upcoming weapon that may or may not be for their Hercules toy. The rifle seems to be a modular weapon with different configurations for the gun depending on where you attach the parts. There is no word on a release date, price, or even if this weapon will be released.

Here's the latest buzz on Transformers 4. E! Online is reporting that while Michael Bay may be returning, several actors including Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Shia Labeouf and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley are not. Speaking to Josh Duhamel at a launch event for the Playstation Vita, Josh stated that he does not know that any of the leading players are doing this new instalment in the live action movie series. In his own words,
"I haven't heard anything about it. They haven't called me." This may change of course - Transformers 4 is still over two years away so must be very much in the very earliest stages. Casting / recalls may simply not have taken place yet. Although it is also a real possibility with the word that this will be a "reimagining" there might be a complete change of the cast. More news will be posted here as it reaches us. |

The official Transformers Facebook page has updated with a whole bunch of official images of the Bot Shots series, including our first look at some official pictures of what we're assuming is going to be the Wave 3 of the single packs!
The new official images give us a look at the robot and alternate modes of: Thundercracker Jetfire Lockdown Topspin (Dark of the Moon style) Megatron, a different one based on the Dark of the Moon truck mode. Cast in translucent plastic, he is probably the "Super Bot" chase figure for this assortment. Check out the official pics by clicking on the link above. |

Igear has updated their Facebook page with a new image of a project they've been working on for some time. Presser is the name of this figure and it is based off of the comic book only character, Impactor. Teased last year, this is the first update we've had for the figure and the quote on the Facebook page reads, "Finally, not so far away..."
Take a look at the new image and then discuss away in our 3rd Party Discussion Forum! |

Next up is the 2nd 2012 exclusive from the Transformers Collectors Club (and also courtesy of 2005 board members Agent Adam and mitchsantona) is a Classics update on one of the Generation 1 Battlechargers, Runabout. Renamed Over-Run for this release, this figure uses the Generations Wheeljack figure for a base and features a brand new head mold. Included in these pictures is an alternate transformation cooked up by 2005 Board member General Tekno, that gives the figure a more "G1ish" backpack. Over-Run's partner in crime, Runamuck, will be available for free from the Collectors' Club if you're a subscribed member by March 16th.
Check out Agent Adam's very cool pictorial review in our feedback forum here. You can watch MitchSantona's video review by clicking the discuss link or by watching the video embedded below. |

Thanks to 2005 Board members Agent Adam and MitchSantona we have two reviews of Shattered Glass Drift. One is Pictorial Review flavored while the other comes in the form of a video review. One of this years highly anticipated offerings from the Transformers Collectors' Club, Shattered Glass Drift uses the Generations Drift mold as a base and comes with Drift's swords and a pair of hand guns from the Blurr use of the mold. The character is based off of Marvel Universe's Deadpool character. So fans of Transformers and Wade Wilson will want to snatch this guy up.
Click the title bar for some pictures or visit the pictorial review in our Feedback forum here. The video review is embedded below. |

With the news of the seventh set in the six figure Hercules set being announced, now seemed like a great time to share with you these latest two galleries of the TFC Toys Hercules project! Here for your viewing pleasure are Dr Crank and Structor - the fourth and third members of the team to be released, both by TFC Toys and also by the numbering on the original Generation 1 backer cards for the toys they were based on. Funny coincidence, that one!
As with the rest of the set, these two are big, chunky figures, far removed from the more intricate, delicate feeling offerings of FansProject or Perfect Effect. That is not to say they are flawless though - Dr Crank really has a hard time supporting that massive crane on his shoulder, and Structor's shoulders click rather loudly! However, both are still good, fun releases, with enough features and mass to them that they go some way to justifying their wallet-slaying pricetags. Check out the galleries by clicking the links below: TFC Toys Structor Gallery TFC Toys Dr Crank Gallery |

Thanks to TFW2005's very own Seth Buzzard, we now have an image of an upcoming TFCToys product into the Hercules line, this time being an expansion set for the now completely released Hercules. Called the Rage of Herclues set, this set comes with a new headsculpt (with an optional "Rage Face"), forearms, shoulder extensions, and the gun we first reported a few days ago. As well as these new parts, the set also contains the 7th Bio Card for Hercules itself, and a new poster. This set will be released sometime in May. There is no news regarding price at this time.
UPDATE: We now have two clearer images of the banner. As well as this banner that was on show at the AOD Convention in San Francisco, Seth Buzzard also reports on Twitter that the planned TFCToys exclusive was not available at the show, as it was held up in Customs. |
