eBay seller - crazyforfigure2010 has opened an eBay auction for the unseen McDonald's Happy Meal figures - Movie Optimus Prime & Megatron.
These figures are appeared to be non-transformable, however gimmicks are attached. Optimus Prime should be able to shoot a missile/sword gimmick, whereas Megatron seems to have claw gimmicks.
You can view the remaining images at the auction
here.

Just when it seemed like things were winding down, the cast and crew of Transformers: Dark of The Moon show up in New York City, at the United Nations building. Though don't take it from me, check out the story via the
Inner City Press.
UNITED NATIONS, November 13 -- Transformers 3 is filming in the UN today. The middle section of the General Assembly hall was full of extras, in suits and native dress, while a camera on a mechanical arm panned the crowd and then the three faux speakers on the rostrum. From the photo booth on the GA's third floor, Inner City Press heard stage directions, saw the vote tally board lit up.

Did you recently have a big payday and are ready to start your holiday shopping for the big Transformers fan in your family? Why not get them their very own
BARRICADE from the first Transformers live action film? One of three
Police car Saleen Mustangs that represented
Barricade in alternate mode is
currently up for auction on eBay and is available for bid through tomorrow. The
auction description for the car reads:
Motoexotica wrote:Motoexotica is proud to offer one of only 3 custom
Saleen Mustangs built by Steve Saleen for their role as '
Barricade' in the 2007 movie blockbuster "Transformers". Steve Saleen created only 3 '
Barricades' for the film and this was the #2 car, also known as the camera car. It was heavily screen used in the movie due to its attention to detail and no damage. The car features all of the standard Saleen options including 3V Saleen modified engine, mated with a 5spd transmission, full Saleen body kit, Saleen hood, Saleen sail panels, Saleen rear wing, Saleen 20" wheels, Saleen leather interior, Saleen gauges, Saleen shifter, Saleen badging, Saleen suspension, Saleen exhaust, Saleen carbon fiber front chin, and Saleen carbon fiber rear diffuser.
For the film the FX department added a Police front pushbar, state of the art Police low-profile LED lightbar, front and rear strobe lights, camera mounts, Wilwood stunt brake line-lock, tinted windows, police decals, "to punish and enslave" decals, Transformers Decepticon decals, and Michael Bay's lucky number 643. All of the lights and strobes work with no problems and are operated by a control box on the right side of the center console.
The paint on the car is nearly perfect with no major imperfections. The car has been well taken care of throughout the movie as well as after. Decals are all in good condition and not peeling off. The tires all have good tread life left on them and the wheels are free of any scuffs or curb rash.
Inside, the car retains its original interior and has not been gutted like many of these movie cars. Both seats are in great condition with no wear as well as the carpet, dash, headliner and door panels. The most major modification to the car was taking off of the supercharger. Since this was a camera car that had microphones installed, the supercharger whine would have been picked up by the microphones. Due to this, the car does not have a supercharger installed currently and does not come with one.
With this vehicle being reintroduced in the 3rd Transformers film, its value is sure to go through the roof. An interesting bit of trivia is that these cars were built by Steve Saleen as the prototypes for the S281 Extreme. We have seen a lot of these movie cars and can honestly say that this is the cleanest movie car we have ever seen. It was purpose made for the movie and only has 7,200 original miles. The car is 100% street legal and is being sold on a clean, Missouri title with VIN number 1ZVFT82H755115527.
While there's little doubt that this was one of the cars in the first movie, the rumored appearance of Barricade in TF3 described in the auction details is highly suspect and very doubtful.

And now the "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" website,
TransformersMovie.com has been updated as well to reflect the title change, as noticed by fellow Seibertronians
gigazarak and
SlyTF1. Hopefully a teaser trailer won't be far behind! Christmas? Superbowl? When do you think the first trailer will debut?
Transformers 102: For those of you who don't know what "
Dark of the Moon" means, it is an Astronomy term. According to
