The current issue of Toyfare has about five pages of articles with Transformers writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci along with a interview with Peter Cullen. Ironically I use to get Toyfare until last year when they switched to some bizarro tabloid mimicking writing story that was high on nonsense and low on actually information. However, based on the below summary from the "AutobotMaximal" on the TFans board, I don't think I missed anything. Most of the information has already been released online in various ways and no movies spoilers are indicated.
The summary:
Toyfare #115 March 2007(source)
Under a short article named "Cheesy Rider", about some of the "most bizarro bikers in toy history", Action Master Prowl [from 1986ish line - TFL] is shown and the writers aren't sure why a Transformer that can turn into a police car would need to ride a motorcycle.
There's a 5 page article about the 2007 Transformers Movie that starts out by mentioning that writers Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci have been friends since high school and mentions the shows they started their careers working on. There is a pretty good interview, where they asked the pair things such as "were they Transfans as kids", to which they both said that they were. When asked if Cybertron would be shown in the new movie, they replied that they can "neither confirm or deny" that rumor. There is also an interview with Peter Cullen, appropriately titled "The House that Peterbilt", about his role as the popular Optimus Prime and how he went about landing that role in the upcoming movie. He mentioned that the support he received from Transformers fans is what drove him to go after that role. Official pics of Protoform Optimus Prime and Protoform Starscream are shown, in both modes and it mentions that they should be available May 1.
Classics Grimlock is listed as #8 on Toyfare's "Top 10 Hottest Action Figures". That's it for this month...
