New Image Of Megatron From - Transformers: The Last Knight

Looks like the "Humans come to negotiate and they join forces to fight evil Optimus" scene

Lennox is in the picture as well so this must be part of the scene where he meets Megatron in the desert.

Hey, you know what this design reminds me of, actually? Straxus. His head sculpt, his body style... Frell, even his sword looks like a pickaxe.

Maybe I'm just crazy.

Just don't kill optimus

They can't kill him off permanently for two reasons: 1) Marketing value, and 2) Peter Cullen.

I gotta admit, I'm liking Megatron more and more in this flick.

A fellow fan reported finding the following:

I found the Tiny Turbo Changers at a Walmart in Ogden, Utah today. They retail for $2.97.

Also, HTS has them online right now for the same price as toysrus if you are interested:

You could order them now, get the free shipping and have them in a few days without worrying about not finding them at retail or spending more time/gaz.

While we had seen the boxes for the Takara Transformers: The Last Knight toys a while back, we only got a really good look at them today. We see that they are just the Hasbro boxes with stickers (like what happened with the first movie toys). However, now that we see the stickers up close, we see something we never saw before: Kanji. You see, every single time before, the name of the film was in Katakana, the bigger Japanese letters you see. However, below these letters, we have different Japanese writing in Kanji and instead of just having the English title phonetically translated, you actually have a Japanese title. And it's a different title than the English one we see on the box. Instead of it being The Last Knight (which is what TLK stands for), they write The Last Knight King. Could this change in title for Japan give a further hint at the plot of the film? Like not only is it a knight, but there is also a royalty angle or a superiority to the other knights?

Below is the technical explanation regarding the name translation pattern of the previous movie toylines from Sabreblade followed by an example of the Katakana and Kanji found on the boxes.

Of the previous four films, all three of the sequels were given different names from the English ones for their respective Japanese releases, but whose subheadings were all still foreign word names rendered in Katakana:

ROTF: トランスフォーマー リベンジ Toransufōmā Ribenji, "Transformers: Revenge"
DOTM:トランスフォーマー ダークサイド・ムーン Toransufōmā Dākusaido Mūn, "Transformers: Darkside Moon"
AOE:トランスフォーマー ロストエイジ Toransufōmā Rosuto Eiji, "Transformers: Lost Age"

Here, however, the title's subheading is instead rendered in Kanji (along with a の Hiragana):

トランスフォーマー最後の騎士王 Toransufōmā Saigo no Kishi-ō, which means "Transformers: The Last Knight King"

This sounds to me like it could give a bit more context as to who the titular knight is. He's not just a knight, but the king of the knights.

You know, as I was typing that post, I Googled 騎士王 (Kishi-ō, "Knight King") to see what would come up and the first result that came up was the Chinese Wikipedia article for King Arthur, 亚瑟王 (Yàsèwáng). Could be a coincidence (as those are not the same three Kanji as those I Googled, save for the third one), but I did find it funny what with all the Arthurian stuff going on in this movie.

Well that's good at least, Klayton does some good stuff.
