KFC restaurants in China will be having Collectible Transformers: The Lask Knight cups. Starting May 27 fans can pick up Optimus Prime and Bumblebee cups. There is also a littlest petshop cup for those who are interested. G1 Evac of TFW2005 brings us photos of the cups with figures on top. These figures come with a sticker sheet (shown below) and supposedly make sounds. 26 KFC restaurants in China will be decorated in honor of the new TLK film.

Good news for any German fans who would like to see the real vehicles used in Transformers the Last Knight. You can currently find Drift and Hound at the Mercedes Benz Museum at Stuttgart, Germany. The instagram page where the image was found only describes Drift (who is a Mercedes in the film) but we can clearly see Hound in the back, who is also a Mercedes vehicle.

I think this might be the first time I've seen Grimlock on TLK merch. Would that be accurate? Otherwise he seems to be ignored completely.

Too bad TastyKake is an east coast thing and I never get any.

While some of these were at toyfair, only Optimus Prime could be officially revealed due to the wait for licencing to be finalized. Well, the wait is over, at least for Bumblebee, Crosshairs and Barricade. These are non transforming 1:24 scale cars, in diecast, part of the same Metals Die Cast series you may have seen for other blockbuster films, like Batman V Superman. So, unlike the Simba Smoby diecast products, these should see distribution in North America. These are currently available for ordering at paulmartstore, where they retail for $28.99.

They're pretty neat, and they're Alternator-sized! I'm not that thrilled with the RPM/Speed Stars method of having the robot mode underneath, but o well. And yet again, Barricade is unlicensed. Ford must have been really playing hardball.

Huh, I wonder why they included a black version of the weapon of deluxe class barricade, heck it even is deployed the exact same way

They've very nice and shiny. If I bought these I'd probably buy high-accuracy non-transforming figures of each character where possible to pose next to each car.

Do any of you have kids that like Transformers? Walmart sure hopes so because they have many new Transformers: the Last Knight themed clothes for them to wear. Some sleepwear and t-shirts have been found both on their website (the specific links are at the end of the article) and in stores, as CJ_thenerd has shown on Instagram.

Check out all the designs below!

Thanks to smaller online toy shop, paulmartstore, we have more images of the upcoming Jada diecast vehicles inspired by the cars of Transformers: The Last Knight, as well as their accompanying collector coins, and the reveal of their Optimus Prime model! It's also been clarified that there will be two versions of the Cars for sale: one that's packaged with the coins, and a version without. Check out the new photos below!

We had images of the Jada 1:24 scaled diecast cars a little while ago and now the same source, Paulmartstore.com has put up listings for the 1:32 and 1:62 scaled cars. It is once again a mixture of Optimus, Barricade, Crosshairs and Bumblebee. The dioramas at the back of the 1:62 scaled cars seem to be interlocking to create one long diorama. You will notice that Hot Rod is not present even though he was rumoured to be made and that is because all JADA Hot Rod products will be Walmart exclusives. We have no images of him yet, so if ever you find a Jada Hot Rod toy in Walmart, please take an image and send it to us.

The 1:32 scaled cars are $9.99 while the 1:62 scaled cars are $7.99.
