Transformers Alternity Starscream and Skywarp

Pics of the upcoming Alternity Starscream and Skywarp have been released. I have been impressed with the Alternity series thus far and have grabbed every release. The sculpts and designs do look better than the earlier Binaltech series, though the size is a bit smaller.

Starscream and Skywarp look pretty awesome from the pics. I esspecially like Skywarp’s colours. Will definitely be pre-ordering these. :)

Toy Fair 2010 – Transformers – Powercore Combiners

The Powercore Combiners is something new from Hasbro that didn’t really catch my eye until I saw the 5 pack images. Basically a modern rehash on the Combaticons and Aerialbots. I must say, that I’m pretty sold on the new looks. Hope they turn out as good as it looks.

Toy Fair 2010 – Transformers – Generations

Transformers Generations is basically the Classics series 3.0. A retake on old G1 characters that fans love. The latest announcements from Toy Fair 2010 didn’t really excite me thus far. Only Drift from the TF comics and Thrust, which was released previously in Japan, caught my eye. Though Tformers.com did report that Darkmount, as seen below, did have a Straxus (from the comics) head sculpt. I would definately check that out.

Other pics can be found here and here.

Transformers: War for Cybertron Toys

The newest line of toys from the Transformers: War for Cybertron has me drooling. I’m sick of the movie toys, and with the Universe line on hiatus, this new line based on the upcoming game has renewed my desire. UGO.com posted some pics of Prime and Megs. Megs looks a lot like his Classics toy. The Bumblebee pic is from the latest TF collectors club mag. All’s lookin good. Now I just want to find out what the next Masterpiece is. heh

Transformers: War for Cybertron Debut Trailer

The debut trailer for the new Transformers: War for Cybertron is out. It doesn’t show much, but there’s potential. Optimus looks a bit like the Animated Optimus. Hope to see more soon.

Marvel Figures

Went down to OG to check out the sale. Wasn’t too shabby. Got my first Marvel figures. Including the SDCC Captain America exclusive. Nice. :P

Michael Bay Does Victoria Secrets

From directing Transformers to directing a Victoria Secrets ad. Somehow explosions with nearly naked women appeals to me. Onward to Transformers 3!

New Transformers Game: Transformers – War for Cybertron

OptimusWfC_good_shot.jpg

Information on a new Transformers game for the PC/PS3/Xbox 360 has been leaked. Transformers – War for Cybertron apparently has no links to either the cartoons, comics or movies. Though the designs of the bots is a cross between G1 and The War Within comics.

The game is supposed to be in the ‘Gears of Wars’ style of games and targeting to be released in 2010. I’m pretty excited as it has nothing to do with the movie and it’s a new game world. Best it has elements of G1 and War Within designs. Best! I hope the game turns out good. Was pretty disappointed with the two Movie games that came out.

Some more exciting design pics below. Soundwave looks good!

New Goodies Out of Box and Some Others

There’s nothing better than opening the boxes and taking out your brand new figures for display. The 12 inch Sideshow Star Wars figures I just picked up rock. The finishing and paint jobs are excellent. The bodies are also much better and can actually pose properly.

The EZ Devastator is another figure that impressed me. It’s made up of 7 separate ‘legends’ size figures that can actually transform to robot and vehicle mode. And when combined, looks pretty much like the badass Devastator from the movie. Sweet! Articulation is pretty good too. The legs and hands can bend and pose, though slightly limited, but great for such a figure.

I haven’t taken pics of my Hot-Toys T600 – Rubber Skin version or John Connor as yet. The detail of the endoskeleton is amazing! Here are the pics.

I also got myself some DiD 12 inch cases and displayed Iron Man Mark I & III in them. very nice. Just need to find space to display Mark II.
