We Now Have a Taste of Jon Hamm as Sentinel Prime

I want to see him in another Fletch movie.

I don't want the whole damn movie to be spoiled before I see it.

Same here. I refuse to watch anything else until September 19th. I haven't been this excited for a TF movie since RoTF. I hope I won't be let down as bad.

For me, the most disappointing movie was AoE.
The Dinobots were wasted and the "shredded" transformation were dumb and lazy.

I think that for TF1 to be worse than any Bay movies, it would have to be done on purpose.

We have casting news our own Jon Bailey is in Transformers One. He’ll be voicing Soundwave, who he voiced in the Bumblebee film. Jason Konopisos Will be voicing Shockwave and Evan Michael Lee will be voicing Jazz. They each revealed this on their respective social media.



We also have a clip of Shockwave talking if any are interested as to what that sounds like.

I've never seen Shockwave so.....emotive. Does not compute!

LOL, I'm not against it though. I'm not sure whether the VAs get to see the CG (even a rough "stickman" form, but still show enough of the motions of the characters) when recording the lines, but the emotive voiceworks match the movement on screen.

Idk about Shockwave but for what I worked on I got to see the film from early stages to finished animation. The original sessions there was nothing on screen or just animatics, all just recording the lines of the script with direction. I didn’t have to act to picture til the last session.

So you had to redo all your lines over and over to different versions of the movie, depending where in the production process it was?

As for Shockwave being emotive, I like it as well. He's my favorite Decepticon ever, and I always liked the G1 comic version. He was very active and engaging in that, unlike the "computer on legs" persona he was always given in animation media.

Hasbro is gearing up for a special celebration of the Transformers franchise on September 17th with the launch of Transformers Day, marking the 40th anniversary of this iconic brand. As part of this celebration, Hasbro is unveiling a brand-new figure: the Studio Series Deluxe Class Bumblebee (B-127), inspired by the upcoming Transformers One animated film.



Here's the official reveal of the upcoming Transformers Studio Series Deluxe Class Bumblebee (B-127) action figure. This 4.5-inch figure is a detailed representation of Bumblebee as seen in the upcoming Transformers One movie. It transforms between robot and Cybertronian car mode in 18 steps and comes with an array of accessories, including two Energon knives, two forearm blasters, and one blaster accessory. These accessories can be combined to create "knife hands," offering fans versatile display options.





Fans can pre-order the Bumblebee (B-127) figure on September 17 at 1 PM EST on Hasbro Pulse and participating retailers. The figure is priced at approximately $24.99 and will be available in Spring 2025.

Transformers Day will take place on September 17th, a day filled with announcements and content celebrating the franchise's 40th anniversary. The event leads up to the release of Transformers One, which hits theaters on September 20, 2024.

This celebration is a major event for Transformers fans, offering a first look at exciting new products and content. The Studio Series Deluxe Class Bumblebee (B-127) figure is a must-have for collectors, capturing the essence of Bumblebee in the new film. Transformers One promises to be a landmark moment in the franchise, as it explores the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron. The film, featuring a star-studded voice cast including Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, and Scarlett Johansson, delves into the deep bond between these iconic characters before they became sworn enemies.

Should have been May 8, the actual anniversary of the brand.

Wow, TWO blasters and TWO daggers with Bee AND a rifle? Hasbro is going big with the accessories now.

Well its good Transformers gets a day and its so close to the new movie's premier where they can do a tie-in with it. I'm still celebrating October 15th as Decepticon Day because of the original cartoon though.
