Transformers <a href="/people/index.php">writer</a> Simon Furman has updated his <a href="http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">blog</a> yet again. This time he <a href="http://simonfurman.wordpress.com/2007/11/12/top-trump-transformers/" target="_blank">reports</a> on the release a new guide to the <a href="/movie/index.php">Live Action Transformers movie</a>, released by Haynes Publishing. The following has been taken directly from the blog.

"<i>Out now, published by Haynes Publishing, is an brand-spanking-new guide to the live-action Transformers movie (featuring ALL the Autobots and Decepticons and a goodly number of the human cast too!). Top Trumps Transformers draws its inspiration from the recent Top Trumps deck of Transformers battle cards, but goes much, much further. For the in-depth lowdown on everyone from Optimus Prime to Starscream to Agent Simmons, Top Trumps Transformers really does have it all. This pocket-sized book is packed to rafters with illustrations, profiles, and detailed specs, making it the first truly comprehensive guide to the movie (soon to be released on DVD). It’s written by myself, and retails (considering everything that’s packed into its 192-pages) at the staggeringly low price of just £4.99/$9.95!</i>".

remote access drones?

WHAT REMOTE ACCESS DRONES?!! I hope they aren't referring to those bots in the video game. D:

Either that or they talking about his trailer. lol.

Eh...I gave up on movie guides. Cuz the last one was BULLCRAP! The speeds, the height, etc was WRONG.

But I will take a look since it's supposedly written by Furman. (those last writers were on some kinda drug)

Yes. Yes he did.

I'm a sucker for cards anyway so if I could get my hands on these I would!

You know what that picture of Optimus Prime's battle mask reminds me of? His face in the 1984 box art.

Seriously, check it out.

Incidentally, that was always my least favorite depiction of him.
