We'd like to thank everyone for voting for their nominees for the fifth inductee into the
Transformers Hall of Fame. The ballot has been stopped, the votes have been tallied, and we've got our results. Without further ado,
Seibertron.com's selections are....
G1 Jazz with 10%....
Beast Wars Dinobot with 11%....
G1 Shockwave with 14% ....
G1 Grimlock with 18%....
and
G1 Soundwave with 23%!
For now, all that is left to be done is to wait for other Transformers fan websites. Then we shall wait for Hasbro, who will then take all the fan website choices (including ours) and tally up the robot points. We will then be able to vote from the top five robot points receivers at Transformers.com to add one robot to the already elite group of bots - Optimus Prime, Megatron, Bumblebee and Starscream!

Hello Benjamin's. Looks like Hasbro is making solid revenue, and that means more toys for us, right? Check out the entire article by the Associated Press
here.
Toys are increasingly making their way back into parents' budgets, Hasbro Inc.'s results showed Monday.
A big spike in sales of girls' toys and strong sales across the board helped Hasbro's first-quarter profit nearly triple.
Revenue from girls' toys, including Littlest Pet Shop, My Little Pony and Strawberry Shortcake, rose 16 percent.
The second-largest U.S. toymaker also said Monday that it is starting a $625 million share buyback program.
Shares rose $1.06, or 2.7 percent, to close at $40.91 Monday after touching a 52-week high of $41 earlier in the session.
Both Hasbro and Mattel Inc., the largest U.S. toy maker, reported strong first quarters, indicating parents are beginning to spend more on their children as fears about jobs and the economy ease. Toys are usually one of the first categories to recover after an economic downturn because many parents spend on their children before themselves.

Cast your vote!
HASBRO wants to know what we think. Nope, this is not a joke. They really want to know what characters have been thrown around Seibertron.com as HOF worthy? You can check out the original discussion thread
here to see some people's thoughts when they heard about the hall of fame being proposed.
The really cool thing though is that
each website gets to submit their top
five character choices to HASBRO as voted on by their community members. So you now have
7 days to get your vote in by clicking your top
three choices in the poll that goes along with this post.
HASBRO “ROLLS OUT” TRANSFORMERS HALL OF FAME
TRANSFORMERS Fans Will Participate in Selecting One Robot for the Class of 2010
Pawtucket, R.I. (March 26, 2010) — After more than 25 years of “MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE” action, Hasbro (NYSE: HAS) is announcing the TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame that will honor both “ROBOTS IN DISGUISE” and those influential in creating and building this iconic entertainment brand.
Heroic AUTOBOTS OPTIMUS PRIME and BUMBLEBEE, as well as evil DECEPTICONS MEGATRON and STARSCREAM, will be the first robots honored with admission as chosen by Hasbro’s TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame internal panel of judges. TRANSFORMERS fans around the world will determine a fifth robot to join the inaugural class via voting on the Transformers.com website starting on Monday, May 10, 2010. The winning robot will be revealed Saturday night, June 26, 2010 in Orlando, FL at the annual TRANSFORMERS convention known as “BotCon” when the entire Class of 2010 will be officially inducted.
“The TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame celebrates a global entertainment property that has sparked the imagination of millions of kids over the past 26 years and remains one of the world’s most iconic brands,” said Greg Lombardo, senior director of marketing for TRANSFORMERS. “Starting in 2010, Hasbro will annually honor fans’ most-loved characters from the world of CYBERTRON as well as those individuals who have helped shape a brand that has spawned an army of popular action figures, multiple animated series and two blockbuster live action movies that set worldwide box office records.”
Next Friday when we send in Seibetron.com's top five choices, HASBRO will then take all the fan website choices (including ours) and tally up the robot points. We will then be able to vote from the top five robot points receivers at Transformers.com to add one robot to the already elite group of bots that has been admitted to the TRANSFORMERS HALL OF FAME already.

Previously it was reported that Takara Tomy will shift its production line from China to Vietnam by the end of this year. However it seems like some of the upcoming toys already produce in Vietnam now.
Actoys member feng423999 has posted a few images of upcoming movie version Leader Class Starscream. Interestingly the toy was stamped "Made In Vietnam" now instead of China.
Probably when the production is fully shifted to Vietnam, we won't get to see unreleased toy images that often in the future.
Check out below for the Strascream toy images plus video clip on his sound gimmicks:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
HASBRO “ROLLS OUT” TRANSFORMERS HALL OF FAME
TRANSFORMERS Fans Will Participate in Selecting One Robot for the Class of 2010
Pawtucket, R.I. (March 26, 2010) — After more than 25 years of “MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE” action, Hasbro (NYSE: HAS) is announcing the TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame that will honor both “ROBOTS IN DISGUISE” and those influential in creating and building this iconic entertainment brand.
Heroic AUTOBOTS OPTIMUS PRIME and BUMBLEBEE, as well as evil DECEPTICONS MEGATRON and STARSCREAM, will be the first robots honored with admission as chosen by Hasbro’s TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame internal panel of judges. TRANSFORMERS fans around the world will determine a fifth robot to join the inaugural class via voting on the Transformers.com website starting on Monday, May 10, 2010. The winning robot will be revealed Saturday night, June 26, 2010 in Orlando, FL at the annual TRANSFORMERS convention known as “BotCon” when the entire Class of 2010 will be officially inducted.
“The TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame celebrates a global entertainment property that has sparked the imagination of millions of kids over the past 26 years and remains one of the world’s most iconic brands,” said Greg Lombardo, senior director of marketing for TRANSFORMERS. “Starting in 2010, Hasbro will annually honor fans’ most-loved characters from the world of CYBERTRON as well as those individuals who have helped shape a brand that has spawned an army of popular action figures, multiple animated series and two blockbuster live action movies that set worldwide box office records.”
First introduced in 1984 by Hasbro and Takara as a toy line, the TRANSFORMERS brand
has provided kids with hours of MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE fun with their action figures that convert from robot to vehicles and back again. Legions of boys around the world grew up creating fantastic adventures and battles set on both the planet CYBERTRON and Earth that featured the “good-guy” AUTOBOTS and the “bad-guy” DECEPTICONS. Since then, more than 7500 robots have been introduced and are now eligible to earn a slot in the TRANSFORMERS Hall of Fame’s inaugural class.

Takara Tomy has updated the Transformers Animated website with new information on the recently announced Sega Arcade Games for Transformers Animated - The Chase & The Shooting.
"The Chase" is a chasing game where the players are having a mission of hunting down the Decepticons rivals. From the arcade machine, the main controllers for the players are the steering wheels. So it is presume that the players will have a lot of driving to do.
As for the "The Shooting", this is the first person shooter type of game.
Another interesting point is that the players can get the Animated game cards before the game. The game cards enable the players to enter their particulars and save all the important progress of the games.
