The first annual Transformers convention in Singapore kicks off tomorrow and the Resorts World building is undergoing a major transformation. Fans can expect to see Transformers toys from some of the major lines and a host of current toys. A massive, life sized Optimus Prime will be in attendance and with the help of some scaffolding, attendees will be able to take their pictures eye to eye with the iconic Autobot hero.

Among the displays will be a Kre O area, with interactive events starring Kre O BumbleBee. According to Asia.cnet.com, one of, if not THE major detail this preview has divulged, is the planned announcement regarding Transformers 4! What information will leave the realm of speculation? Time will tell.

Seibertron will be on hand to report all the news so keep it here for CybertronCon 2012 Coverage from Singapore!

Posted below are some of the preview pics, click here to view the entire gallery at asia.cnet.com

I'm hoping everyone is paying attention to this event this weekend ... this is the event that we want here in the U.S. This is what North American Transformers fans deserve!

Seibertron.com Team member Mach is on hand in Singapore at the beautiful World Resort. His first wave of photos can be found below and it still some time before the event launches! Displays of the origins of Transformers have been spotted, and the empty room where an interview with Hideaki Yoke, considered the father of Transformers, will be soon be filled. We will continue posting news and reveals throughout the event and for the remainder of the weekend!

Pity I can't make it this time around. Thanks to Mach for such cool pictures! I wonder if there would be any more Tf cons in Singapore..

Anyways the Takara's Prime figures looks really good; glad I pre-ordered them.

Man, they are really Rolling Out the red carpet for this event. I mean it looks really good! I love the wall displays they are using, I wouldn't mind seeing more o'that.

Is there a demo of FOC on the floor?!? That would be awesome. I'm hoping they show us some wave 3 Generations or some news about some new United figures. (Like better looking Combaticons)

I hope to wake up tomorrow and be razzle-dazzled by a flashy flurry of titillating Transformers tidbits & perfectly procured photographs.

I know right? It's like a Transformers convention can be more than open auditoriums and dealers tables? Who would have thought?

It's.... troubling to say the least.

Although Grandmaster CP proclaims that these Prime little guys aren't truly Microns, I might be starting a rogue faction...

Generations STARSCREAM at CybertronCon 2012

Oh yes, who's ready for a new line up of Seekers? I know I am. Thanks to Seibertron.com News Crew member DevastaTTor, We have our first look at Transformers Generations Deluxe, Fall of Cybertron Starscream! This guy heavily resembles his War for Cybertron appearance. The indication is that he will be released Spring 2013. DevastaTTor adds:
Before a huge crowd for the Hasbro/Takara Tomy Brand Development and Product Panel Discussion, Hasbro revealed the first Generations figure to be released as part of wave 1 in 2013: deluxe class Starscream.

Transformers Global Brand Director, Jerry Jiovin, also teased the crowed a little with the potential for the release of FOC Grimlock. When asked by a member of the crowd if we'd see him in the same wave, he sheepishly grinned and answered " Stay tuned..."

He does look fairly game-accurate, but are the giant missile launchers of doom really necessary?

Despite some overcrowding at times, I thought for a first attempt, the show was fantastic. Hopefully I can plan some business at the same time next year and make it an annual event.

It was a good primer for SDCC 2012.
