We've received some information via our sponsors Robot Kingdom, suggesting that the rumored Masterpiece Transformer MP-14 is actually Red Alert. The reported MP-12A is now promoted to have his very own numbered release, if this information is accurate. We'll find out for sure when the news comes in from the Tokyo Toy Show on 18 June, which will include the first public unveiling of the new Masterpieces.

On the same report is an update about Masterpiece Soundwave. There's a bit of a cost increase reported (from 12000yen to 15800yen) but also of interest is the confirmation that Soundwave will only include the one cassette, and that one cassette will be Laserbeak.

Again, treat this all as unconfirmed for the time being (although Robot Kingdom has never steered us wrong in the past). The truth will out in good time, on 18 June at the Tokyo Toy Show 2012.

The 2012 Tokyo Toy Show will be held very soon, with its two exclusive Transformers releases and Masterpiece series reveals set to please many fans. Among the exclusive Transformers to be available at the show is the Black Convoy / Optimus Prime, a full on Decepticon version of the Autobot leader in black and teal. A couple of new images of this cool exclusive have been posted on Twitter by Hisashi Yuki, one showing a rather powerful looking pose and the other showing the Decepticon Optimus back to back with Henkei Convoy in a nice juxtaposition of good and evil Primes.

Auto Assembly has sent us an update. They are proud to announce a new exclusive item, in association with Calloway Customs and Kapow Toys.

At Auto Assembly 2012 there will be a kitbash seminar, to teach attendees some of the tricks and techniques for converting a Transformers toy into something new, unique, and personal to yourself - a tutorial in the basics of customisation. This exclusive piece ties in with that seminar, giving you an exclusive head to go with Generations Wheeljack to make a truly unique character! The new head is based on the alternate "Diaclone / Marlboor" Wheeljack head, and will only be available in very limited numbers at Auto Assembly 2012! Several different packs are available for order:

Gold Pack – Base figure (Generations Wheeljack – never released in the UK), exclusive head, uncut sticker set. Strictly limited to 30 sets produced, Auto Assembly 2012 attendees only. £35

Silver Pack – Exclusive head, uncut sticker set. Strictly limited to 30 sets produced. £25

Bronze Pack – Exclusive head. Limited to 40 sets. £20

Basic Pack – Unpainted Exclusive Head. Limited to initial orders. £15


Those gold, silver and bronze packs are limited to one per person - that's one of any pack, so if you go for the gold you can't also take the silver, etc. Did we also mention the head in everything but the basic pack will be hand-painted ready for your finished custom?


Find out more details including how to get your paws on one of these awesome sets by hitting that discuss link below!


Auto Assembly will also be offering a non-attendee package for this year's convention! As well as all the usual goodies, you can get the silver, bronze and basic packs for this head this way! Find out more here!

Here is something rather cool. The Transformers the Ride experience at Universal Studios Hollywood has its own giftshop and dining area attached, and in the dining area, we've got some cool Transformers themed eats and drinks. For soda, there's a sharp Energon themed commemorative cup - Energon, preferred fuel of Transformers! It's cream soda, with a light in the cup which pulses and flashes.

There's also a milk chocolate version of the Allspark cube from the 2007 movie which is a deliciously nice take on confectionery. Every detail is painstaking recreated - all the better for you to eat! It's tagged as exclusive to the Ride, so the only place you'll get this one is at Transformers the Ride at Universal Studios Hollywood.

A while back, third party group Beelzeboss released a head and weapons set for Classics Cliffjumper. Today, the Facebook group Meteor Operation posted a teaser image showing linework for an all-new headsculpt, and perhaps more interestingly, a suggestion that this will be an entirely new and complete figure. This comes months after Beelzeboss posted plans to create standalone figures, so far based on the Throttlebots.

This time up, we have a Developer Diary specifically regarding Optimus Prime, and narrated by none other than Peter Cullen himself. Transformers: Fall of Cybertron hits stores on August 28th in North America (and the 31st of August for our friends across the pond) for the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.
