Thanks to Yuki over on Twitter, we have our first look at Transformers Legends Scourge in package. The Takara version of the figure features a much more cartoon accurate deco over the Hasbro release. Scourge is due out late this month.
Awesome news for comic fans, more specifically those in Florida, as Tampa Bay Toy Expo, in partnership with Read More Comics, has just announced an exclusive variant cover for the first issue of the upcoming Revolution series!

More than Meets the Eye 56 hits stands this Wednesday – will you be picking up this subscription cover? Share your thoughts in the discussion linked below.
Via @TFYuki on Twitter, we’ve got a look at Transformers Legends Blurr in package. Takara-Tomy’s Blurr comes in a pleasingly animation accurate deco, and his box homages the style of the box which the Headmasters and Targetmasters came in. Blurr, along with Scourge and the Shockwave with Headmaster Cancer set, are due for release at the end of this month.
Last week was huge when it comes to Transformers: The Last Knight.
TFW2005 along with several other sites, were invited for a Press Tour to check out what’s going on at the movie set. The team had tons of fun and took tons of photos. We even got a chance to talk with the cast and crew. While you can enjoy over 100+ photos we have to show, you can anticipate a write up on the coming days. So, stay tuned with our site as it goes up. (To answer your question, yes; the image on this news post is from the coverage. Check out the photos if you still haven’t.)
Meanwhile, the Social Media Team associated with the movie decided to show us some more (a lot more) robot modes. Starting with Sqweeks, the week went on to show Crosshairs, Hound, Barricade, Megatron and Bumblebee in that order. There are some more characters left to show. Hopefully, we’ll see them this week.
Let’s take a look at some humans. First we have William Lennox (Josh Duhamel) and his Allied Team (known as TRF on certain cases) who appeared on the official Transformers Weibo Page. Though the video description says “Captain Lennox will lead his assault team as Autobots’ best helpers! Looking Forward to it!“, the fans are still debating whether they are the good guys or the bad guys.
Speaking of good guys, here we have Isabela Moner with the Navy Seals who are definitely the good guys.
Mark Ryan also announced that he will be doing voice work on Transformers 5. This of course is a delightful news considering his awesome take on Lockdown in the previous movie.
Actor Mark Wahlberg took a break from filming to greet his fans at his own restaurant in Detroit. Titled as Wahlburgers, the fast-food joint was quickly filled up with fans who greeted  Mr. Wahlberg with absolute delight. The cast and crew of TF5 were also invited but were not able to come at that time due to busy schedule. They later visited the place following a hard day’s work.
Once again we thank everyone for contributing. Have a great week ahead, folks. Tune into TFW2005 for the best Transformers news.
After an unfortunate event involving Hasbro submitting a withdrawal from London Toy Fair this year, Hasbro is back in UK to discuss the future of their brands in Europe.
The company will be attending this year’s Brand Licensing Expo under the name Hasbro Brand Licensing & Publishing with several popular brands including Transformers.
“Hasbro is committed to leveraging its beloved brands, including TRANSFORMERS, MY LITTLE PONY, MONOPOLY, LITTLEST PET SHOP, NERF, PLAY-DOH, MAGIC: THE GATHERING and our newest franchise HANAZUKI to Create the World’s Best Play Experiences. At Brand License Europe 2016, Hasbro will continue to bring our stories to life across multiple mediums including entertainment, publishing and branded experiences. Hasbro will also showcase a successful range of High End Fashion from industry taste-makers, as well as a broad range of consumer products including Toys & Games, Back to School and Apparel & Accessories at this year’s show.”
The expo will take place on 11th October at the London Olympia Hall.
With the 10th Anniversary of Transformers 2007 just around the corner, Hasbro has applied for the Trademark rights for Transformers under Live Action Movies.
What’s interesting is that as a proof of usage, Hasbro has submitted a screenshot of the IMDB page of Transformers 2007 along with their Trademark application to the United States Patent And Trademark Office.
Here are the details:
You can check out the documents at USPTO.
Well, this is certainly a surprise. Transformers: Robots In Disguise Decepticon Island Showdown 2-Pack was on display just few weeks ago at San Diego Comic Con 2016.
Already, member Paulbot from fellow site Ozformers spotted the new 2-Pack in Australia.
The packaging is based on the Clash Of Transformers line and the set features Bumblebee and Steeljaw Warrior Class). The pack also contains several weapons featured on the episode of the same name and two stasis pods.
Check out more info at Ozformers.
Thanks to UK Retailer Smyths’ we have with us a set of new stock images of Transformers: Robots In Disguise 3-Step Changer Bisk.
Features
Bio:
Bisk is a lobster-bot Decepticon who was a prisoner on the crashed prison ship, the Alchemor. He likes making up ways to rack up points and track his achievements during battle, even if he’s the only one who understands how to keep score. (No one’s really sure if he wants to defeat the Autobots or just level up.) He blasts steam from his antenna and his armoured shell is strong enough to deflect blaster fire.
Thanks to Brazilian site Hobby Brinquedos, we have with us some more official stock  images from the Transformers: Generations Platinum Edition “Rise of Rodimus Prime” set.
The set features Rodimus Prime and Galvatron, who use the Titanium Rodimus Prime and Universe Galvatron molds respectively.
This new image reveal came at a rather appropriate time as this is the 30th Anniversary of Transformers: The Movie.
Check out the images, after the jump.
