By way of Youtub member Walruslaw, we have a look at the third versions of the Japanese Transformers Prime opening and closing segments. The third opening is "TRANSFORMERZ (Version 2)" by M-Flo, and it's... not great, certainly not keeping in with the epic overtones of the series itself. The third ending, Discord by Tokyo Girls Style, is much better and features some cool visuals of both faction's logos being formed from stills of the respective faction's major players. Check the videos out below.

Out of the human characters appeared on the movieverse, Tyrese Gibson’s character Robert Epps has always been a fan favorite. Despite his fellow cast members openly stating that they won’t be back for Transformers 4, Mr. Gibson always said he’d be delighted to come back.

And here he is… stating that he and Michael are in the talks for Transformers 4. Below is a rough transcript of what he said to Mobli.

“I don’t know… me and Michael Bay, we’ve been exchanging e-mails… I mean Text Messages and I just hope that it works out… I mean things fell apart with Megan Fox and so we had to do what we had to do to pick up the pieces and keep moving with Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. And now things fell apart with Shia. Business is business I think. I think Shia has expressed his opinion. I think when you are associated with movie like Transformers other than the box-office sees you as an actor... a full-on actor, lot of people arguably can say they don’t take you serious… in this town called “Hollywood”... because the reason all these doing big is because of the robots, the big action and special effects and so in some capacity could diminish your value as an actor which you bring to the table. Even though it’s huge for your brand and your image and your celebrity around the world. But Shia is one of those real actors full-on real actors... whether gets an independent role where he just get paid Per diem or at some role he’s just passionate about and that he may do for free. As long as he gets associated with these heavy-weight actors… that’s the space he’s been. But for me I started this s*** with Shia, Josh, Michael Bay and the Team and sometimes you lose a team member. In my mind not be in a part with Transformers 4… if that’s even happening… it f**** me up. I’ll be honest… I love it. It was the childhood, movie, favorite of mine… you know I don’t really not wanna be a part of the franchise. Period. You know when you lose a team member sometimes you gotta keep going. Period.”

Hobby Ark Toy Store has posted a picture of the packaging for the Asia exclusive live action movie series Striker Optimus Prime. The Asia exclusive release is a premium version of the one released by Takara-Tomy in Japan last year. An out-of-package in-hand picture has been posted on the Hobbybase Facebook page, for those curious of how this one looks out of his box. As these pictures indicate, this release also includes the sword accessories that were Amazon Japan exclusives with the first release of the Striker Optimus Prime.

Talking with ET, Director Michael Bay stated that Transformers 4 will have a “different feel”:

"What I can say is that it's going to pick up where the other three left off," said Bay of the film, which will predominantly feature new actors from its predecessors. "It's going to feel very different. It's going to definitely open the franchise up for many more to come, and it's going to have a freshness to it."

ACToys has posted a selection of in-hand images of the Alternity Galvatron and Banzai-Tron. These two releases, who were originally intended for an Asia exclusive release last year but have only found a way to market now are recolors - no remolded heads - of Alternity Megatron and Starscream respectively. Although hard to judge from these images Banzai-Tron looks like a decent representation of his Generation 1 self - Galvatron though is only a purple Megatron and arguably suffers for the lack of a new head.

Check out the images and decide for yourself.

We haven't really seen much of the upcoming Generations Kickback figure since past cons, until now! Tekmen has posted his images of his Kickback testshot. His thoughts on this figure:

"The robot mode is gorgerous and posable
Yet the insect mode is a pile of junk. Can't properly stand as a bug, doesn't even really look like a bug;

worst of all, joints are ultra-limited in bug mode:
The kicking-back-legs can't kick AT ALL, they are positioned only the way you see in the photo, can't stretch any further;
The wings are somehow engineered to bend ONLY the way that could pop parts off... no idea what that's for......"

Tekmen also posted images of his FOC Starscream testshot, showing the transformation process! Check out the new FOCing pics after the jump!
