Anyone seen the January Previews yet? If you did, or plan to, you should notice something interesting in the Transformers toys section.
According to
lastmaximal at
Cybertron Phillipines he saw a red repainted Dropkick in the most recent issue of Previews.
He even snapped a picture of it from his cell phone. The quality is quite poor, but you can see Stealth Bumblebee and a red truck that seems to resemble Dropkick.
What is this unknown Transformers name? When will it be released? Autobot or Decepticon? Feel free to discuss it below!
We'll let you know if this is more than a rumor, when we find out more, in the
Seibertron Movie News and the
Seibertron Toy News.

Just a quick update from Aaron Black and Reprolabels.com:
Merry Christmas!
Just two sets for you this month, but they're good ones:
1) Justin Goguen brings you the next movie Upgrade set. Upgrade M4 delivers all those missing flame details for Optimus, and a lot more:
http://www.reprolabels.com/Upgrades/upgradem4.asp
2) The MMPR sets keep coming! Alison Morris designed this show-accurate set for the Mastadon and Pteranadon. I coded the Flash animation myself, and I think it's good for a laugh, so check it out:

Included in the set are Optimus Prime, Jazz, Ratchet, Megatron, and Blackout!
Check out the gallery
here!
We're not sure at this time what store these may be exclusive to, but when we find out more, we'll let you know!

Madman Entertainment has recently put their upcoming Super God Masterforce DVD up for
Pre-Order at AU$59.95 on their site. The DVD box is to be release on February 13th 2008.
THE GODLIKE POWER OF MASTERFORCE!
The original tales of TRANSFORMERS G1 continue in this second Japanese sequel!
In the years following HEADMASTERS, Earth has been peaceful, but hidden, living among us - are Pretenders. A small team of Autobots have watched over us, assuming human size and appearance. The sudden re-emergence of their Decepticon foes forces Earth's secret defenders to come out of hiding.
The conflict escalates and with the power of Masterforce, both sides recruit new heroes. Humans join the fray, combining with Transformer bodies to fight! Behind it all, a sinister force manipulates events, culminating in the creation of the most powerful super robot - the Godmasters!
With high octane anime action, MASTERFORCE is the long awaited favourite that takes TRANSFORMERS to a whole new level!

According to a
news article about fake goods on the UK based business site
The Independent, a report made by NetNames states that one out of five Optimus Prime Transformers bought over the internet is a fake. A knock off, from an original to press costs, but made in various stages of quality.
"According to the online brand protection specialist NetNames, one in five Transformers Optimus Prime Autobots offered over the internet – tipped to be one of this year's top selling gifts – are cheaply made fakes made in the Far East, with wide variations in quality. One trader based in Hong Kong was responsible for one in 10 of all products offered, according the NetNames".

Yes, sir, the Autobot Leader of the FEMALE unit on Cybertron shows up in site sponsor
BigBadToyStore's most recent offering.
Check her out and pre-order her to be your very own
here.
" We are proud to present another BBTS Exclusive Transformers Bust! Elita One is limited to only 600 pieces worldwide.
Elita One sports a graceful, noticeably feminine pink and red chassis. Her blaster raised above shoulder-level, Elita One appears to be leading her fellow female Autobots towards a sovereign objective. Elita One commanded a small faction of renegade female Autobots on Cybertron; counterparts to the male Autobots on Earth, Elita One and her warriors resisted Shockwave's smothering dominion, subverting the Decepticon cause in the process of attempting to secure much needed energon. Elita One valiantly sacrificed herself in order to save Optimus Prime from Starscream's acid vat, and was desperately delivered into the hands of her creator, Alpha Trion."

Through the big re-set last week, and hub bub of not having any news or login capabilities something got a little overlooked.
Toyfare #126 hit the shelves and released information on the year 2008.
Pg. 66 has a half page dedication to CLASSICs 2.0, with pics of Dreamwave art of the G1 Farelady brothers Prowl and Bluestreak.
In the article, which is an interview with HASBRO SENIOR BOYS TOYS DESIGNER Bill Rawley, Sunstreaker (yellow lambo), and Prowl (black and white cop car) are revealed to be confirmed.
He also mentions,
"...a triple changer, a tank, and some other classic characters."
"We can't have five cars in a wave, so we try to mix it up a bit and offer more of a variety."
In Wave 2, if a mold is re-used,
"...I'll try to throw a new head sculpt or change up the way the vehicle transforms in order to give it a new look."
A letter in the Toy fare letters column also asked:
"Are 6-inch Titanium War Within Prowl and War Within Grimlock due for release any time in the near future?"
HASBRO PR- Paula Wash said, "We are not planning to release these versions."
A sad day for those of us who wanted to see the Titanium line end on a real positive high note, and also to have a few more figures added to the highly desired War Within figure collection, which is far too small as it is.
There is an existing thread about Prowl being a new CLASSIC already
here.
Thanks to all the different sources for the information. Hope we got everyone.

Deep Water found them at Toys R Us in Michigan!
If you've been interested in these toys, take a look at your local TRU, because I have also seen sitings elsewhere for these same items (like New York!).
The proof is in the pic, and this is what Deep Water found!
Go out and look for them, and when you find them call out the name 'Deep Water' to give thanks! Okay I'm not serious about that part, but thanks Deep Water!

According to news at
TFs@The Moon, E-Hobby will no longer be accepting international orders (and have not been since September 2007).
Does this mean getting an exclusive from them will now be even more difficult and expensive? We hope not!
You might want to question your favorite import store, and see if this will effect their prices dramatically, and start working on some comparison shopping. Or just do without your 'Protect Black Version' of Re-issue G1 Ironhide!

Well, those of us who were hoping for the happy Christmas morn' with new japanese imports...we might be waiting a bit longer.
Listings for the Encore Re-Issue of Skylinx, and the Japanese release of the CLASSICS line, have had the pre-order date changed at BBTS.
Previously, in a
BigBadToyStore update letter it had been announced that many items of the japanese exclusive import Transformers style would be available before Christmas.
New evidence, however, seems to point to the opposite. Sky Lynx looks to be later than expected (February), and the J-CLASSICS are now scheduled to be in by March.
Good news for those with tighter budgets around this holiday season. Sort of a let down though, for those who were really excited to see all of these coming this month!
You can still expect to see Encore Ironhide and Ratchet, as well as, Music Label Soundblaster arriving soon, as previously stated.
I assume Joel at BBTS will clear this up in his next letter, but we all have to understand what a busy time of year this is, so a mistake was made. As I said, good news for many of us.
We'll keep you updated when we have a sure answer for the why's, when's, and how's, as soon as we know more.
And JOEL, don't worry, we still love BBTS!

The folks at Diamond Select Toys have announced the next release in their series of busts, and it should be quite surprising to most fans.
Created after a vicious battle destroyed both Soundwave and Blaster, the newly-formed Soundblaster possesses the same abilities and personality as his former self with an all-new look. Sculpted by Art Asylum and limited to 1000 pieces, this six-inch bust features the servant of the Headmasters with his trusted lieutenant Ratbat and includes a hand-numbered base with matching box and Certificate of Authenticity.
No word as yet on how much it will cost, but one can expect it to carry a hefty price tag. The news crew will keep tabs on this and update you as more info comes in. In the meantime, make sure to bookmark
this page and let us know if anything comes up.
