WIN Masterpiece Rodimus with TheTransformers.Net

Written by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on August 8, 2011 | Auto Assembly |

In conjunction with Auto Assembly 2011, we here at TheTransformers.Net are giving away a fabulous prize to your UK Transformers fans. We have a Masterpiece Rodimus to offer up to the lucky winner of our competition, details of which were advertised on our flyers at Auto Assembly 2011.

If you’ve come here from seeing one of our flyers at AA, then welcome – we love you one and all. If however you’ve come here from another source, such as a link, Google or the kind words of a friend, we love you too (possibly not quite as much, we’ll decide later).

Anyhow – onto the competition. In order to stand a chance of winning this great (and it is a thing of beauty) prize then all you have to do is sign up to our new forum and post in the competition thread. After the competition end date (September 2nd) we’ll randomly select one of the posters as the winner of this great prize.

Regulars to our site may notice that this is a new forum, as our old one (TheTF.Net) has been closed down and moved over to TheTransformers.Net. TheTF.Net will remain live for all eternity as a homage to the greatness that it was, but this new forum on our main website will grow and grow as members migrate and new members find us – hence the competition to help promote it 😉

We should point out at this stage that staff members of our forum, and staff members of AA, are not allowed to enter… sorry chaps.

Once the lucky winner has been selected, we’ll contact them to get their UK based address and will order the toy for them to be sent out as soon as it’s available (release dates pending of course).

How cool does that sound? All you need to do is sign up to a forum and post in a thread – and if you’re already a member of the forum then half the work’s done for you!

You can find the forum thread here – just post once in the thread and that will register your entry into the competition; you don’t need to post again in that thread, but you can post in other parts of the forum and chat to our friendly, if not slightly inebriated, forum members.

Here, for your perusal, are the terms and conditions of the competition – or the boring bit, as we like to call it.

Hasbro to attend Auto Assembly 2011

Written by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on August 2, 2011 | Auto Assembly,Hasbro |

Last night Auto Assembly made yet another announcement about this year’s Transformers convention, taking place in Birmingham in just ten days time. The latest announcement is that Hasbro will be attending, and will have a Transformers display of some of the latest toys. Here is the official announcement from Auto Assembly:

We’re just 11 days away from Auto Assembly 2011 but we’re not finished with our big announcements yet…!

We are proud to announce that we are continuing to develop our relationship with Hasbro UK and once again they will be having a display at the convention this year showcasing some of the latest Transformers available. They are also going to be donating some prizes for us to give away at the convention but we’re going to be leaving details of that as a surprise for the weekend itself.

We still have more big announcements to come and the clock is ticking away now for you to hurry and pre-register to guarantee your place at Europe’s Largest Transformers Convention! Pre-booking will get you earlier admission to the event, a better chance for more free gifts in your goodie bag, and you’ll be automatically entered into two free prize draws, one of which is to win autographs from various Transformers actors including Peter Cullen and Shia La Boeuf!

If you’re not able to join us this year, don’t forget that bookings are open now for Auto Assembly 2012 taking place over the weekend of 3rd – 5th August 2012. Tickets are selling at an astonishing rate with almost 40 sold in the first week!

Auto Assembly 2011 is taking place over the weekend of 12th – 14th August 2011 at the Holiday Inn Birmingham City Centre, Birmingham, England and tickets are available from the website now. For more details on the convention, to see a full list of all the guests and activities taking place over the weekend, or to book your tickets, visit the website at www.autoassembly.org.uk
