This year is the 35th Anniversary of Transformers, and Hasbro is kicking off the celebration with a promotional mailer featuring a selection of current offerings from various lines.  Studio Series, The Bumblebee Movie, Cyberverse, Bot Bots and Generations War for Cybertron Siege are all represented.  We are all at different points in our collecting habits, from the little tikes all the way up to their fathers, and these figures show there is truly something for everyone.   The figs came in a big kick ass box (you can see our recent Siege galleries here), which Hasbro always does well.  Inside the box there is a secret code that you can use to unlock special content at the Teletraan-1 Database on Hasbro’s website.  You can find that code inside this story and get the content for yourselves!

There is a lot of great stuff still to come in 2019, from Siege to Masterpiece and beyond, so stay tuned for more info as things drop throughout the year!  Let’s Roll! [Read more…]

If you enjoyed the Bumblebee movie and you live in Texas, you may have a chance to watch it for free with your family and friends.

Kicker 102.5 website is informing that the Texas Parks and Recreations Department in Texarkana is starting a “Movies in the Park” event this Thursday, May 23rd and the first movie to be shown is “Bumblebee”.

For the next several weeks, there will be several free screenings of different movies on Thursday nights at Spring Lake Park. The movies will start between 7-8 PM and are shown in the field across the street from the old airplane, all free of charge.

You have to bring your own blankets, chairs, food and drinks (no alcohol or smoking allowed). A great opportunity to have fun and watch the movie one more time.

KABOOM!  KAZOWY! Thanks to Fans Toys Weibo we can share for you the final color images of Fans Toys FT-41 Sheridan (Masterpiece Scaled Warpath). 

This is Fans Toys take on popular Autobot red tank for the Masterpiece scale. The images show off the great vibrant red finishing of the figure, and we can see a lot of die-cast in the tank treads that we are sure will please your optics. Fans Toys really captured the animation design in the robot mode, and with a compact and solid tank mode.

You can check the mirrored images on this news post after the jump and then sound off your impressions on the 2005 Boards!
