Attention fellow Canadian fans! An article from driving.ca website is giving us the heads up that the 1967 VW Beetle From The Bumblebee Movie will be shown at the 2019 Vancouver International Auto Show.

Here’s the description of the event:

Volkswagen will be displaying its full lineup of new vehicles at show, but it’s an older model VW that will be drawing crowds, young and old.

For the nostalgic or the movie-buff in all of us, making its first-ever appearance at this year’s event is Bumblebee, one of eight vehicles used in the 2018 motion picture of the same name.

The 2019 Vancouver International Auto Show runs until Sunday, March 24th at the Vancouver Convention Centre. If you live in the area, try to dash to the exhibition today. Check out the image of Bumblebee’s 1967 VW Beetle alt mode after the jump.

Japanese entertainment magazine The River, once again sat down with Transformers Live Action Movie Series producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura to discuss the future of the series.

The usual question of whether Transformers: Bumblebee is a Prequel or a Reboot is asked once again; but this time with regards to the statement made by Hasbro during Toy Fair 2019, where it was described as a ‘new storytelling universe’.

It is also implied that the series will now take a similar approach to Warner Bros.’ DC Series course correction; where the attention is given to each individual film while not focusing on a broader “Cinematic Universe”.

Other notable questions:

  • Possible return of Travis Knight for the sequel of Transformers: Bumblebee.
  • Robot designs.
  • Sequel to Transformers: The Last Knight.
  • Role of Unicron on future movies.

Due to the length of the interview, we will only be translating the parts highlighting the future of the franchise, and you can read it all, after the jump.

Courtesy of People.com, we can share a new Deleted Scene from The Bumblebee Movie. This takes places shortly after Bumblebee messes with electricity when he is alone at home. On this scene, we can see that several kitchen appliances have come to life to wreak havoc on Charlie’s house.

Charlie and Memo find themselves against a washing machine, a fan, a dishwasher and a refrigerator. A very fun moment that didn’t get into the final cut and it should made you remember similar robots we saw in Revenge Of The Fallen.

You can watch the video below together with some screencaps after the jump. Don’t forget that Bumblebee is available on Digital now and will be on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD April 2.

Publisher Viz Media, via their Twitter account, have made the announced of a new Transformers: A Visual History Artbook.

Great news indeed, considering we don’t have many Transformers artbooks in the market. According to information shared by animenewsnetwork.com, this book is written by pop culture chronicler Jim Sorenson. The book showcases hundreds of iconic and rare images drawn from the Hasbro archives as well as development art from Paramount Studios feature films in an impressive amount of 408 pages. A very promising project, worth of any Transformers fan library.

The book can be found for pre-order on Amazon.com in 2 different editions: The regular Hardcover can be pre-ordered for $49.99, and a special Deluxe Limited Edition, which will come packaged in a collector’s box and include five exclusive art prints for $99.99. Both are scheduled for release on November 12, 2019.

Takara Tomy Website has updated their Studio Series section with some downloadable instructions. To our surprise, the file has some extra steps not seen in Hasbro’s paperwork.

First, we have the confirmation of the correct Jetfire’s blaster form (that some fans have deduced while transforming the toy) with several simple and easy steps. Then we have a very interesting reveal. Jetfire includes an extra chest piece for his combination with Studio Series Optimus Prime. It seemed to be just an extra part, but Takara Tomy’s instructions reveal that this piece can be stored in the back of Jetfire. The hideaway works really well, and you can still transform Jetfire since it doesn’t affect the vehicle mode. Simple but very smart.

You can download the pdf file of the instructions here or you can click on the bar to check the mirrored images on this news post. Let us now your impressions on the 2005 Boards!
