Transformers: Age Of Extinction Official Merchandise are still pouring in. This time we have with us a pair of Wristwatches representing Optimus Prime and Bumblebee from Transformers 4.

These licensed watches are distributed by Tourbillon; a company of the Swatch Group. The prices for these watches are not revealed yet, but it is categorized as "Luxury". The reputation of Tourbillon is the distribution of rather expensive watches all over the world… so, don't expect these watches available at your local stores. It is most likely that the Age Of Extinction watches will be available at the 19 Tourbillon Boutiques worldwide.

Check out the images, after the jump.

The Transformers Colombia Facebook page has updated once more, this time with new images of the Transformers Age of Extinction store exclusives in package. You can check out in package images of the Wal-Mart exclusive Legions Stinger, Optimus Prime and Grimlock, Bumblebee and Strafe two-pack, and Bumble & Strafe VS Stinger three pack, along with the Target exclusive Silver Knight Optimus Prime and Grimlock two-pack.

The packaging for the two-pack and three-pack are particularly interesting as they really play up the whole "evil clone" thing that Stinger has when compared to Bumblebee. Check the images out and see what you think.

USA Today had the pleasure to talk with Transformers: Age Of Extinction executive producer Mr. Lorenzo di Bonavetura and he is sharing with us 3 new stills (no; not humans this time) from the upcoming Michael Bay movie.

The interview and the images highlight the weapons of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee.


Optimus Prime goes from junkyard shabby to wielding a new power sword in no time.

"The sword is emblematic of what we've done to Optimus Prime as a whole," says Di Bonaventura. "He's been upgraded with more abilities."

Bumblebee takes his martial arts to another level with Chinese star-style adornments on his armor. The two also have new souped-up transformation vehicles. Optimus Prime eventually reveals himself "like a knight in shining armor" as an impressive Great Western truck, says Di Bonaventura. Bumblebee re-emerges as a new souped-up Camaro. Yellow, naturally.

The upgrades continue with the introduction of Dinobots, ancient creatures who enter the franchise "with their fists and feet first," says Di Bonaventura.

You can read the rest of the interview at USA Today and check out the new images, after the jump.

The Mr. Potato Head Transformers Mixable, Mashable Heroes have started to arrive at retail in the Philippines, giving us a look at the packaging of these figures and our first real look at the Bumblebee in the assortment, who is based on his Generation 1 self. The assortment contains an Optimus Prime and a Grimlock alongside Bumblebee - each one stands roughly 3 inches tall.

We should probably be seeing these at US retail soon, within the next six weeks or so if past trends are correct if not a bit earlier.

TRANSFORMERS MORE THAN MEETS EYE #29
STAND-OFF! While the crew of the Lost Light react to MEGATRON's arrival with characteristic maturity (calling him names behind his back and ignoring him when he speaks) one AUTOBOT is convinced that a more direct approach is needed. Guess what happens when a one-time tyrant is told he's not wanted? Yeah, exactly.

Entertainment Earth has updated with some new case listings of upcoming Transformers product releases. Key points of the new case listings include:

• Generations Voyager Wave 7 will feature 1 x Springer, 1 x Sky Byte and 2 x Roadbusters
• Generations 2014 Deluxe Wave 3 will feature 2 x Rattrap, 2 x Tankor, 1 x Armada Starscream, 1 x Mini-Con Combiner, 1 x Scoop and 1 x Fall of Cybertron Skywarp
• Age of Extinction Deluxe Wave 2 is due in July, and features 2 of Lockdown, Strafe, Slash and Drift per case. A revision case swaps out the Lockdowns for a Bumblebee and a Slug - so Lockdown is going to be the hard to find one, it appears.
• Age of Extinction Voyager Wave 2 is also coming in July, with two revisions. The first case assortment packs 1 x Grimlock, 1 x Hound and 2 x Galvatron, with the revision taking out a Galvatron for an extra Evasion Mode Optimus Prime.

There are also listings for Wave 2 of the One Step Changers which will feature one of each of Lockdown, Grimlock, Slash, Hound, Bumblebee and Crosshairs per case, and Power Attackers Wave 2 which will feature two each of Hound, Optimus Prime, Drift and Scorn per case.
