TFormers.com have posted what they claim to be the 'official Hasbro character summary for the Alternators Nemesis Prime figure' that will be Sold exclusively through a
HasbroToyShop.com launch at this years
San Diego Comic-Con on July 19 2006.
The bio reads:
For years, Dr. Arkeville has labored during his rare free moments in a laboratory hidden even from his DECEPTICON® allies, as well as the prying eyes of Concurrence agents. He has painstakingly built this shell with his own hands, made out of parts pilfered from DECEPTICON repair lockers over a period of months. It is the most powerful of the Binaltech bodies created: a near perfect melding of robot technology, Earthling construction and miniaturization techniques, enhanced with the improvisations of one of Earth's most brilliant technical minds.
The plan was hatched years ago when Arkeville had the opportunity to remain close to OPTIMUS PRIME® long enough to acquire a near-complete scan of his programming using a subspace-impulse cloner of his own design. Years of hacking since has brought Arkeville to a level of understanding of TRANSFORMERS programming decades beyond any other on Earth. Housed within this deadly shell is a near complete clone of the great OPTIMUS PRIME, reprogrammed as a tool of destruction and a scion of command. If MEGATRON® cannot be trusted to destroy the AUTOBOTS® and leave Earth in his hands, then Arkeville will provide the DECEPTICONS® with a leader more than fully capable of doing so. His NEMISIS PRIME is more than a weapon; he is the ultimate military commander – ruthless, efficient, calculating and above all wise. He is a consummate warrior, a perfect fighter, a victory engine.
Just one thing only remains: to provide a motive force, that thing the TRANSFORMERS refer to as a Spark. Recent experimentation with the subspace displacement technology of the AUTOBOT® Translink Project has revealed an extra-spatial power source of unheard of proportions. Linking this power source to his creation should be a simple matter of constructing the appropriate subspace conduits. And once this is done NEMESIS PRIME will rise, and all who stand against him will be laid waste.
At the first glance, you’ll notice that this tough pick-up truck has all the details - right down to the flip-down tailgate, detailed interior and side-view mirrors. A twist here, a turn there and you’ll find this Dodge Ram vehicle changes into an amazing robot with a secret weapon!

Kickback of
TFW2005 has posted another update about information of upcoming Transformers releases. This time Kickback reports more Titanium releases and Movie information. Kickback's post also includes a possible movie scene spoiler. Here is what Kickback posted:
"This is it. The final installation of our Slow News Day series. People love this opportunity everytime I post upcoming news because if I'm wrong, they'll never forget it -- but when I'm right, they're no where in sight to be found.
I'll eventually reveal WHERE I got this information, but I won't reveal from whom, or any specifics.
Here's the juice.
6" Titanium Transforming Characters
- War Within Optimus Prime (known about)
- Megatron (known about)
- War Within Jetfire (known about)
- G1 Scourge (known about)
- War Within Thundercracker (known about)
- Optimus Primal (orange and blue ... BM? Optimal Optimus?)
- Rodimus Prime
- Soundwave
- Starscream
- Cheetor
- The Fallen
- Ultra Magnus
- Megatron
3" Titanium
- Hot Rod
- Thundercracker
- Galvatron
- G1 Prime
- Cliffjumper (repaint)
- Sunstreaker
- Soundwave
- War Within Prime
There are more listings, but I'll get in to that in a moment.
Transformers the Movie
I don't know how much of this I can go in to. I have exact descriptions of certain scenes, I have names of characters (based on toy listings), and I have licensing information. But I'll start with the little stuff.
Your Transformers Movie Headquarters is...
Target! Apparently they had a choice between choosing Spiderman-3 (now a Hasbro toy property?) or Transformers, and Target chose to go with Transformers. They will be the place to get things like Transformers gift cards, and stuff with Transformers all over. Think back to things like the original Spiderman, Star Wars Ep 2 and 3, and The Hulk. That kind of promotion stuff going on.
Apparently you can't put the Transformers name on your product without adhering to a certain agreement -- your product has to have the ablility to "transform" ... think sweatshirt with the ability to transform in to a hoody, or something to that effect.
As for movie scenes?
SPOILER!
Optimus Prime/Starscream chase scene, through a busy street. Lots of transforming, leaping over cars, transforming back. Apparently you get scenes like Transformers fighting on city buildings, blowing up, shooting through buildings, typical Michael Bay stuff. Bumblebee starts as a 74 Camaro, eventually turns in to a 07 (or 08?) Camaro, the frist new model in awhile. GM is planning to promote this new Camaro through Transformers quite a bit ... can we say Alternators Bumblebee? (speculation) A couple of these scenes seem to mimic the script Tony B reviewed awhile back, FYI
The first toys listed for the Transformers movie are all in the 3" Titanium line. Heard a whisper (NOT CONFIRMED) that Soundwave is OUT of the movie altogether now, not even Soundbyte. Again, NOT CONFIRMED.
And that's it! No, I won't tell you the toy names. So don't ask.
Enjoy."
