Whoa Hasbro! That’s two days with two reveals… Oh yes, you read the title… here’s the story from your favorite Transformers Website:

Hasbro has applied for a brand-new Trademark (at the United States Patent & Trademark Office) under 2 categories:

Toyline: toy action figures, toy vehicles and toy robots convertible into other visual toy forms.

Cartoon Series: entertainment services, namely, an on-going animated television series for children.

And the Trademark is… Beast Hunters.

Fans of the Beast Era would immediately recognize the new trademark as the original working title for Beast Machines.

We don’t know how this will eventually turn-out to be… but we do know that there are thousands of TFW2005 Beast Era fans dancing at the moment. Party tonight, people?

Thanks to Neo-Bombshell of the 2005 Boards, we have a possible confirmation of the recent “Beast Hunters” Trademark. According to a document he’s sharing with us via Google Docs, the new Trademark is the title for the upcoming Transformers: Prime Season 3. It is stated that we’ll get to see it in Fall 2013.

Also it is worth noting that Hasbro has plans for Transformers: Prime even beyond 2014 and Transformers: Generations will go until 2014.

We are yet to hear more about the upcoming season and the proposed IDW tie-in comics featuring Prime incarnation of the Dinobots and the recent Thundertron may even play a pivotal role. You can view the PDF formatted document via a Google Docs account Neo-Bombshell is sharing. He is also kind enough to translate the document and has posted at the thread.

Tomorrow night new episodes of Transformers Prime continues with the new episode entitled "The Human Factor". Thanks to Comicvine.com, we have three new promotional images to share with you this evening. The first is a close up of Breakdown's face, looking extremely creepy and "hollow" if you will. The 2nd features Megatron standing next to Breakdown. And lastly, the third image shows Soundwave hacking into a computer system.

If you'd like to read about this episode's description and get an insight into what may be happening in these images: After being granted a new start in his life, the ever stone-faced Silas begins to see the world in a new light and makes an out-of-character decision to go to Megatron in the hopes that he will be allowed to join the ranks of Decepticon.

Make sure to tune into the Hub tomorrow night to watch all the on a brand new episode of Transformers Prime! fsd
