Those hats are sweet but the shiny-ness is a little too gaudy for me.

Italian online retailer EMP also has listed a number of officially licensed Transformers and Transformers: The Last Knight merchandise items, from caps to rings to t-shirts, mugs and posters, in occasion of the fifth film's release next week. Check out below some of the merch, and head here for more!

Seibertronian Carytheone recently took a trip to his local Walmart, where he found some new characters inspired by The Last Knight, as well as a giant Optimus Prime Standup! The characters include Optimus, Bumblebee, and Sqweeks. There don't seem to be any more Autobot characters, neither any 'Cons to cuddle with, but you can buy your own piece of Pillow TLK for $12.96. Here are the picture Cary sent along.

I'm finding myself wanting that Bee mug and Sqweeks pillow...

[no-one]

Those pillows are pure creep, more so on the screen then in person. Well at least now I won't have to engage in pillow talk before sitting on Bee's face

Yeah, no thanks Walmart

[Bronzewolf]

Jada Diecast has unveiled an additional model car inspired by the cars featured in Transformers: The Last Knight. While we've already seen cars like Barricade, Optimus Prime, and Bumblebee, the lastest character to be featured is Hot Rod! He's a 1:24 Scale Model, with an opening hood, trunk and doors. He's going to be a Walmart Exclusive and will, as with the other models, come with a collector coin.

Dang it. The last thing I need is that Lamborghini sitting on my desk.

I hope Hot Rod is one of the future Masterpiece Movie Series figures..!!!!

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Wait wait... just "Hot Rod"? No "Autobot"?

[Carnivius_Prime]

Those pillows are pretty damn nice.

And the Hot Rod car model is gorgeous too. Yeah a Masterpiece figure would be cool but they've only just barely started those and so even if they continue that subline extensively he's probably not a priority as such when so many other popular characters were in the earlier films. If only they could do those as often as regular figures but hey.

[Tyrannacon]

There is a severe and very distressing lack of Megatron plushies and pillow friends.

[WreckerJack]

The short legs on those pillows make me think of:


I usually like plush toys but I think I would have nightmares if I kept one of those anyplace near my bed/couch. Why can't they make plush that don't look scary?

[Sabrblade]

Wait wait... just "Hot Rod"? No "Autobot"?

Maybe model cars have different trademarking rules from action figures.

Plus, y'know, Hot Rod is an adjective for an actual car. On paper, "Lamborghini Centenario Hot Rod" totally could mean it's tricked out with a flame paint job and giant silver exhausts on the side- hey WAITAMINUTE!

I'd snap up a Movie Masterpiece Ratchet in a heartbeat. Wow, I never thought about that possibility before.

The 'robot on chassis' looks weird, but those die-cast cars look good overall.

[william-james88]

Fans have been wondering where they could buy the die cast cars from Jada for their Transformers: the Last Knight line. These will probably be available at Walmart and Toysrus but you don't have to wait since they are all being sold on e-bay stores right now. They aren't aggregious aftermarket prices either, just standard retail prices which could save you some gas and time. You will find all the non exclusive cars in the 1/32, 1/24, and 1/64 scales, which include Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Barricade and Crosshairs. Since Hot Rod is a walmart exclusive, he isn't as reidily available and can only be found in select auctions. Hopefully this helps!

Please note that due to my Canadian e-bay settings, the prices below are in $CDN and show shipping to Canada. Click the image below to see the prices configurated to your location.

Thanks to Scottimus Prime, we have word that the new Transformers: The Last Knight stickers have reached retail! These particular stickers were found at a Walmart in Centereach Long Island, New York, and they feature Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Hot Rod, Megatron, and Sqweeks! While no price was provided, the small booklet of stickers were meant to retail around $1.98, so look for a price around that area. So head on out and check out your local stores, and this week be especially hot, as the movie is now hitting the big screens!

[WreckerJack]

Itunes has added a sticker pack for iPhone users. The app is designed for iPhone and iPad. From the screenshot we can see some of the stickers in the pack are characters from the upcoming film, Transformers The Last Knight. Some of these stickers are also animated, how cool is that?

Featuring all your favorites, these stickers can be added to your messages to turn any boring conversation into an action-packed thrill ride!

Remember back a bit ago when we reported on the new shirts and sleepwear that were coming to Walmart, and one of the shirts was found? Well, now we have several new sightings for more Transformers: The Last Knight merchandise!

The first comes to us from yours truly, who discovered the rest of the shirts in a Transformers display this morning. You can see their stock images by following the above story link.

Up next is a sighting from Scottimus Prime, who found new Transformers Beach Towels for $8.94 at the Walmart in East Setauket, New York.

And Finally, we have some new Hot Rod costumes that have come to our attention, courtesy of Walmart.com. The costumes use 2 different design styles for Hot Rod, along with some gloves to go with said costumes.

Check out all the images below, and get your movie hype on!

I was oddly in that shop for the first time ever today cos I noticed the Prime and Bee bears so went in and ended up having a nice conversation with a pretty girl who works there, only interrupted when friends of hers came in with a baby... I can't compete with a baby...I'm just not cute enough.

should've made a prime bear and given it to her!

Dammit, that might have worked since she did bring up that she really likes the movies and was keen to see TLK soon. I would have happily watched the film a 2nd time as a date too. :O

Go back. If she's there, do it. Ask her out on a movie date. see it again.

If she's not, make the bear, walk by again later like in a day or a few and see if she's there and try that.

This plan would require me to have much more spare cash than I tend to have. Seeing as how that shop is Cambridge (where the cinema is) so that's £6.70 per day I go there on the off chance she's there. And the bear is £24. And the movie is about £10 per ticket (and as a gentlemen I'd be paying for both tickets) and again gentlemenly pay for meal.

Dating is expensive but that's no secret, eh?

Build-A-Date sounds like a profitable venture in itself though.

You're telling me! i pay less for the transformers stuff i pick up from stores after the date than I do for the actual date dinner!

Come to think of it, I may be near a build-a-bear next weekend. Maybe I can take a peek and see if they have some bee's there...
