Movie Bumblebee Statue Pic

TFW2005.com has an interesting image of the movie version of Bumblebee as a statue. Not half bad looking either.

Bay: Transformers CGI Designs Finalized

While all the leaked toy designs already told us this, we now have official confirmation from Transformers Director Michael Bay that the CGI designs for the Transformers have been finalized since last year and will not be changed. Now if only all those leaked designs will hit the web for some CGI glory rather then having to look at more toy pics.

Optimus Prime Voice Changer Helmet Picture

CNN.com of all places is the first to release a picture of the rumored Optimus Prime Voice Changer Helmet modeled off of the Transformers movie version of Prime. Based on the pic, the toy as just a standalone desk item would look pretty sweet. Not sure if the toy makes you sound like Optimus Prime or just deepens your voice significantly to get a close enough feel. Either way its pretty need and the price is $29.99 and should be in stores in June. According to tformers.com, the man in the picture is Hasbro exec Brian Goldner.

Pics of the "Deluxe" Movie Toyline in Package

The "Deluxe" category of toys for Transformers movie with the items in package as leaked online. Of particular interest is a new toy called "Wreckage" that looks like a snow mobile. This character has not been mentioned in any of the movie scripts nor as a part of the cast of characters for the film. It could be just a new edition to the line or maybe, just maybe, a character that has been added to the film. In addition are pics of Jazz, Barricade, and Brawl. Some pics are below with the rest of the gallery here.

So it appears that there are the three main lines of "Legends", "Deluxe" and "Leader" and who knows what else. Based on that, guessing the price points needed to be amended to $5.99, $9.99 and $19.99 respectively. For now anyway. Toyfair is coming up so hopefully most of these details will be finalized officially by Hasbro.

Pics of the "Legends" Movie Toys Online

Another day and more Transformers toy news continues to leak online. Wish the movie production had the gap in the secrecy dam as large as Hasbro's is. Any case, the news is pics of Legends versions (the $5.99 retail price) of Bumblebee ('76 Camaro), Barricade, and Ratchet. Below are a few pics with the entire gallery here.

More Pics of Movie Blackout

TFW2005.com has posted some excellent pics of the movie version of Blackout that is shaping up to be a sweet looking toy and based on this should be quite the badass in the movie. Below are a few pics but can find all of them here. Thanks to Daniel S for the link.

Generation One Viral Videos

Two video have hit the web that use CGI to integrate G1 toys into "real world" environment in pretty neat ways. Its possible the videos are studio sponsored but considering its all G1 based with no movie related anything in them it seems unlikely. It just seems some creative Transfans decided to have some fun.
