thank you! I am transferring this to the toy thread to news!

Today Asian oil company Clatex announces their own promotion For Transformers The Last Knight! Similar to Valvoline in the US, Caltex is offering some Last Knight Merchandise as well as gift cards For those who buy certain types of their oil. Check out the prizes as well s the ways to win below, and click on either image to be taken to the full page to read all the details.

The hype train for The Last Knight continues to chug along, this time making a stop in Australia with Australian telecommunications provider Optus launching a competition to win an overseas trip for two and a VIP experience at a special screening. The competition doesn't say WHERE overseas.

Entry is open to Optus Australia customers.

It's symbolic. The 'world to live' mentioned refers to the huge amount of Optimus Prime toys littering the shelves, while the 'world must die' mentioned refers to the huge amount of Bumblebee toys littering the shelves. With Hasbro's cost-cutting meaning they can't afford to produce as many as usual, they're kill Bumblebee's world of toys for Optimus'. Hence Prime ominously walking over to Bee to sacrifice him to the plastic toy gods.

Bumblebee has a movie coming out, and, even if it is a flashback, it makes little sense to have a showcase movie for a dead character.

My guess is that neither Prime nor Bumblebee die, but I think Prime is far more likely to bite it. He has a history of coming back from the dead, after all.

For Primus' sake!
Bumblebee is as popular if not more than Optimus.
They have recently revealed Bumblebee to be alive in the IDW comics.
Due to the nuber across the board, particularly in the cheeper deluxe class (though not for TLK in the UK it's like 20 quid, a decade back it was 10 quid) Bee probably sells most toys.
Optimus is one of the villains of the film.
Bumblebee is the lead of the current Cartoon series.
Hot Rod is also in the film.
Optimus has enough deaths to warrant a wiki article about them.
Bee does not.
It all points in one of several directions.
Path 1
-Bumblebee manages to overpower Optimus and he dies.
-Hot Rod becomes Rodimus and suceeds Optimus
-OR-
-Bumblebee suceeds Optimus.
Path 2
-Bumblebee is severely injured
-Bumblebee is repaired.
-OR-
-Bumblebee is rebuilt as Goldbug
They aren't killing Bumblebee

I think while Prime is the most popular overall I think Bee is more popular with the kids then Optimus is for most kids.

My personal opinion is that I like them but they have never been favorites of mine for some reason the main character(s) never become favorites it's always the side characters.

One of my fave cons is Hardtop and he has like what zero media representation besides toy bios?

Anyways Bee's not going anywhere but the closest I can see that happening is a Transformers Prime situation where he is dead for 1 minute before coming back "stronger then ever".

Wait, they have? I may need to start reading the IDW comics then!

Anyways, I really like the poster, despite Bumblebee looking like he's seen better days. Something seems off about Prime's left hand, it's at a weird angle. Maybe Bee broke it?

I just want that image as a poster. Like I've said for all the other TLK images of this type.

Thanks to an article published on Variety, we have word that the release date for Transformers: The Last Knight has been moved up to Wednesday, June 21. The article makes mention of the fact that The Last Knight is Paramounts top prospect for 2017 and also reminds how the last 4 films have grossed $3.77 billion. It also goes on to talk about the footage shown off at Cinemacon back in March and also mentions Stanley Tucci, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, and John Turturro returning along with Isabela Moner and Anthony Hopkins joining the cast.
