Reveal Your Shield week has just launched with Hasbro offering us a video featuring Peter Cullen and Frank Welker and the voice changer helmets of their respective characters. You can watch the video below and respond to it on Facebook. While it was believed and assumed, it is great to get a confirmation that Frank Welker is indeed voicing Megatron in the Transformers The Last Knight as it will be the very first time Welker voices Megatron proper in the Movie Universe.

There will be more fun small events and reveals throughout the week in light of the toyline launching, like the official website launching as well. Seibertron will be reporting on all of it, so stay tuned!

#Transformers: The Last Knight’s Peter Cullen and Frank Welker, voices of Optimus Prime and Megatron, have spoken: it’s Reveal Your Shield week, so it’s time to declare whether you’re Team Autobot or Team Decepticon. #AD

Oh good. I was really hoping Frank was voicing Megatron.

Cool. I haven't seen that Megatron mask. I guess the 'horn' bits use up the budget that would have done the back? Or is it much cheaper than Prime's? It's cool anyways. I was never sure about Welker voicing movie Megatron cos Hugo Weaving's voice was great and Welker's take on the character in the TF movie video games didn't seem to work as well but I liked Welker's voice as Galvatron in AoE so yeah let's hear some more.

The second day of Reveal Your Shield week - Hasbro Transformer's marketing promotion for the new The Last Knight movie and related toyline - features a stop motion clip using the Optimus Prime, Barricade, Grimlock, Megatron (and other) toys trying to enjoy one of the trailers. Check it out embedded below from the official Facebook page!

Nobody likes a noisy theatergoer – especially when it’s a Decepticon.

In Day 3 of Reveald Your Shield Week, Hasbro's promise of revealing a new Barricade figure is kept where they reveal Deluxe Barricade for the first time ever.
Yes, this is the very same figure already found in stores and that we have already seen for months now. But since this figure was absent from Toyfair with 0 stock images given by Hasbro proper to the media, this is their official reveal fo the figure (even if we saw him in yesterday's stop motion video).

Enjoy the video below of Isabella Moner showing us this "new" figure and remember to let Hasbro know who you allign with.

Heh, they misspelled her name in the caption.

"This Decepticon's awesome. I think I am too a Decepticon because they're just so cool and rebellious and and, and um... and really really, uh, scary and intimidating, which I'm not, so I aspire to be like this." -- You forgot "genocidal", "psychopathic", "remorseless", they're basically an army of willing mass-murderers, not something to aspire to.

(No, Deadput, this isn't a legit complaint. That emoticon means I'm just being a smart aleck. So don't bother getting worked up over this.)

I don't have time to wth the video right now, but I love how bumble bee is just standing there, and they don't even have the good one that's based off the one in the film

Yeah I did find that a little strange. It's all fun and games when these characters and factions are fictional but would you align yourself with the 'Evil' Decepticons if they were real? Heck, would they even care? Probably just squish you.
