Posted on September 24, 2017 at 8:21 pm by Black Convoy under Transformers Movie (Just Movie)

Via Josh Nizzi On Instagram we have some great images of Transformers: The Last Knight Alternate Dreads Concept Art.

These concept arts look like modifications of the previous Dreads we saw in Age Of Extinction with a nice touch of war paint. Josh only gives us a brief description of them: “Anarchist Dreads don’t care about your society #transformersthelastknight“.

Thanks to Weibo user alucardlee, we have our first look at the next part of Unique Toys’s upcoming take on the beloved gestalt Bruticus, Onslaught! The set of Combaticons is, naturally, Masterpiece-inspired in scale and style and this Onslaught is no exception despite some minor artistic liberties. In these images, we get a good look at both sides of the robot mode, the alt mode, and a commanding pose alongside the already-released Archimonde (Brawl) and Gahz’ranka (Swindle).

No pre-order info is available at this time, but we have mirrored some of the images for you to check out til then!

The Bumblebee Movie News Roundup: Brighton Falls

Posted on September 24, 2017 at 1:32 pm by Silver Optimus under Transformers Movie (Just Movie)

We are restarting our Transformers Live Action Movie news roundup project as we move on from Transformers: The Last Knight to Transformers Universe: Bumblebee. We’ll bring you weekly updates (just like last time) hoping that you’ll catch up to all the tidbits you may have missed.

The biggest news which came out last week is the reveal of an unknown Decepticon in the guise of a 1971 Plymouth GTX. For those who are unable to spot the insignia on the hood, our resident photoshop extraordinaire Red Goblin enhanced the image for your viewing pleasure.

We also learned that the movie’s working title ‘Brighton Falls‘ refers to the fictional town the story takes place.

Speaking of which, we were then bombarded with many pics from the principal photography of Transformers Universe: Bumblebee. Most of the images showcased the 80s setting while some highlighted various vehicles on the set including our titular character Bumblebee as a Volkswagen Beetle. All the images are attached with this news post.

Filming also took over Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk which stood in as Brighton Falls Boardwalk where Charlie Watson (played by Hailee Steinfeld) is working.

Some details at Cinefex seems to suggest that ILM is back for the new movie with their amazing CGI.

Last but certainly not the least, Transformers Live Action Movies are not Transformers Live Action Movies if they do not have at least one controversy surrounding each. Transformers Universe: Bumblebee is not free from that curse either. As it turned out, the production crew has painted over an important mural while filming in Vallejo, California.

Transformers: Evergreen Optimus Prime And Bumblebee Toy Images Revealed?

Posted on September 24, 2017 at 12:06 pm by Silver Optimus under Transformers Cyberverse

TFCN has posted a couple of images of an unknown Transformers toyline featuring Optimus Prime and Bumblebee.

The page titles the two figures as Transformers: Cyberverse – Chapter One. For those who do not know, Transformers: Cyberverse is Hasbro’s latest Transformers animated series which is currently planned to debut next year. Season 1 is titled as Chapter One while Chapter Two is set to release in 2019.

TFCN previously leaked several packaging art that may originate from this mysterious toyline.

Update: Several 20005 Boards Members pointed out that the images are in fact from the upcoming Transformers Authentic “Evergreen” Value Channel toyline.

You can check out the images, after the jump.

TFW2005’s Titans Return Roadburn Gallery

Posted on September 23, 2017 at 7:34 pm by Sol Fury under Generations / Classics, Transformers Toy Gallery Updates

For the next installment in our Titans Return galleries, we’d like to share a photoshoot of the Legends class Autobot Roadburn.

Roadburn is something different. He’s a red remold of Titans Return Bumblebee, who – shockingly – is not Cliffjumper, but rather, one of the Throttlebots, Chase (renamed to avoid confusion with the Rescue Bot). The deco works really nicely on the mold, and the new head is a nice throwback to the Generation 1 toy. We’d even argue the mold works better in red, and that the black trim on the vehicle mode is the icing on this robot cake. We also do not think this is the last time we’ve seen this mold – while the deco is Throttlebot Chase, the head has some cues from Chase’s fellow Thottlebot, Freeway – and we’d love to see how this mold would look in Freeway’s blue and grey deco.

For now, though, check out our photoshoot of Roadburn:

Once again, Twitter user @miiakira2017 shares More Transformers Generation 1 & Diaclone Early Concept Art.

This time we have some peculiar early designs. First, a possible idea for Transforming notebooks in Autobot and Decepticon versions. The next art looks like an alternate design for Terrorcon Hun-Gurr. As an extra bonus, we also can see some concept arts for what seems to be the Diaclone Fortress Robot X.
