Good news, third party unofficial transforming robot collectors! Preorders for the fifth and final member of the FansProject Causality Intimidator combiner group - an unofficial Stunticons / Menasor group - have gone up online. Diesel and the M3 Crossfire set are due for a release in fourth quarter 2013 and will be priced at $149.99 - however there is an early-bird pricing in operation so if you get in before 26 September 2013 then the damage to your wallet will "only" be $119.99. These preorders include new colored prototype images of Diesel in both robot and vehicle mode as well as the Intimidator combined mode.
Check out preorders for Diesel the not-Motormaster at our sponsors: Big Bad Toy Store TFSource |

Yesterday a toy show in Vancouver, Canada called Retro and Relevant had a special guest in the form of fan favorite 3rd party group, Mastermind Creations. Mastermind Creations weren't shy at the event either, they brought along not one, but all five prototypes of their upcoming unofficial Predacon figures, the Feralcons. Most note worthy however, is our first look at the colored Prototype of the core bot of this set, Leo Dux (aka Razorclaw). Thanks to several TFW members, we have a nice little gallery of this figure! Complete with robot, vehicle and comparison shots.
Check out the images after the break and discuss in our TFW Feral Rex Mega Thread! |

Site sponsor, Robot Kingdom, has updated their Facebook page with additional images of the recently revealed and speculated upon Calvin Johnson IDW Generations Deluxe Megatron figure. Detroit Lions wide-receiver and Nike endorsed, Calvin Johnson, has a nickname as "Megatron". These new images give us a better look at the fun details such as deco featuring Calvin Johnson's autograph, a football with a Decepticon symbol, and the G1 inspired gradient seen on CJ's previous Nike/TF sneaker releases.
No word yet on when or how this unique Transformer figure will be available, but since it this sample has ended up at the Robot Kingdom office, chances are preorders may be up soon! Watch TFW for more updates! |

Word comes from China about a very large Transformers exhibit taking place, showcasing, well, almost everything! There seems to be cases upon cases of figures from the last 30 years, along with intricate dioramas and large human sized recreations of scenes from the Movies. It even has it's own store apparently, selling high end recently released items. It really is a sight to see. You can check out some of the images attached to this story, but to see them all, head on over to the thread on ACToys. Note - ACToys is a Chinese message board, it may take a while to load, due to its location and the large amount of high res images shown in the thread.

The third party group Planet X has updated their Facebook page with new prototype images of their upcoming unofficial Fall of Cybertron Swoop figure. Planet X is the group responsible for the massive War For Cybertron Unofficial Omega Supreme figure, Genesis. Their second offering, while considerably smaller in stature, appears to be just as high quality as Genesis was thus far. This figure is shown in a green plastic prototype and the generous amount of images shows his robot mode, Cybertronian dinosaur mode and several of the toys features including; removable weapons that are also compatible with Generations Fall of Cybertron Grimlock, loads of poseability and the ability to attach to Grimlock's shoulders just like in the video game, Fall of Cybertron. Planet X states in their Facebook update that they're open to suggestions regarding color and preorders should be available soon.

Takara-Tomy have updated their website with the first images of the Transformers Go! store exclusives. The exclusives redeco the leaders of the Samurai and Shinobi combiner teams, Kenzan and Gekisomaru, in black. Kenzan gets a very sharp black, white and gold deco, while Gekisomaru gets a Nemesis Breaker inspired deco of black, gray and teal. According to the website, these black redecos represent powered up forms in-story, where Kenzan and Gekisomaru are powered up by the Black Legendisc.
The duo are both due for a release in November. Gekisoumaru is an Aeon store exclusive, and Kenzan is a Toys-R-Us Japan exclusive. |

Emiliano Santalucia has updated his Santalux blog with a piece on his work for the San Diego Comic Con 2013 Bludgeon Tech Specs art. The Bludgeon in the set as you might already know was a repurposed GI Joe figure - however what might surprise you is that the directive Emiliano was given in creating the art was to make it look like the vintage Generation 1 artwork as much as possible - to the point that Hasbro requested it referenced the original toy and comics more than the actual GI Joe retool that the Tech Spec accompanied.
Check out Emiliano's blog post for the full story. |

Transformers Korea has updated with a pair of new images of some upcoming Takara-Tomy Transformers releases. One of the images showcases the Generations TG-25 Megatronus VS Orion Pax set, with a slightly misleading image that makes it look like the stealth bomber Megatron is larger than Orion, rather than being of a similar height. The other new image shows off the Transformers Go! Hunter Arcee, a Japanese market release of Beast Hunters Arcee decoed more closely to her appearance in Transformers Prime.
Both toys are due out in October 2013. |

Perfect Effect has updated their Facebook with new images for their next release in the PE-DX line. PE-DX-03 is the previously shown at Botcon, unofficial Fortress Maximus figure. This figure is roughly a little larger than a deluxe/close to voyager scale. The pictures revealed today show off the characters poseability, a mid transformation picture and the head mode attached to a Generation 1/Reissue Fortress Maximus figure. For this newsie, what's exciting is the ability to attach optional IDW More Than Meets The Eye tank treads to the figures back. There is a promotional image which is 80% blurred out attached to this update, so there definitely seems like more will be revealed regarding this 3rd party release!
Keep watching this space for details! |
