It’s the Transformers convention in Birmingham this weekend and my car is now blinged up and ready to go. I just received my eBay order of 4 Decepticon car badges, which cost me just £1.20 (plus some postage) from China.
The badges look awesome and fit nicely next the Z3 badge on the back of my car. I’m now driving a Decepticon!
I was speaking to Simes from Auto Assembly this week and he kindly offered to give us at TheTransformers.Net a slot in the busy AA schedule for a forum meet. So if anyone from our forum wants to meet up and put a beard to the username, you can do so at Auto Assembly on the Saturday, between 6-7pm.
Simes also wanted me to mention that pre-registration for the convention has just closed (which if you’ve been on another planet for the last few months is this weekend, Saturday AND Sunday, in Birmingham). There are still passes available on the door though, so you can get there early and still get in.
Hopefully we’ll all see you there!
We just received this press release from Activision concerning exclusive downloadable content for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. The downloadable content pack includes new playable characters, including a Generation One version of Starscream.
Now that you’ve had the opportunity to experience the single-player campaigns and multiplayer modes of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, we wanted to let you know about an exciting downloadable content pack that Luxoflux has been hard at work on to support the growing TF: RotF community.
Set to launch later this summer for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game, the robust DLC offering will appeal to fans of both the original Transformers animated series and the blockbuster films.
We are pleased to announce that the pack will include the following:
- Over TEN new multiplayer characters including ultimate fan favorites such as G1 Starscream and movie favorites like Sideswipe.
- Three all-new multiplayer maps.
- Play new characters in both the Autobot and Decepticon single player campaigns.
- New Expert difficulty mode with a fresh set of leaderboards to challenge more experienced gamers in the single-player campaigns.
- New Achievements and Trophies to earn.
Michael Bay revealed recently how he filmed a video of Megan Fox washing his Ferrari as part of her audition for the original Transformers movie. This news has been spreading through the Internet on various gossip sites, with Bay apparently saying that he doesn’t know what happened to the video.
We can confirm here on TheTransformers.Net that Michael Bay did indeed say he filmed Megan Fox washing his car, and Megan admitted it too. They both stated this at the London press conference for Transformers Revenge of the Fallen that we attended last month.
You can watch the videos of the press conference here, and see Bay talk about the video of Megan Fox washing his car.
Of course the real question is can we see a video of Megan Fix washing Bay’s Ferrari? Well, we don’t quite have that video but we do have a video of Megan Fox washing a window while wearing hot pants, for a scene from the comedy series Two and Half Men.
You can watch the video of Megan Fox washing a window below

As someone who is heavily into his Transformers merchandise (I have several T-Shirts, boxer shorts, Hawaiian shirts and a metal belt buckle for example) I was please to find this website that features Transformers shirts and other types of merchandise.
One of the shirts is this Megatron shirt from Transformers Revenge of the Fallen, but if you’re more into your G1 you’ll be interested to know they also have a G1 Hot Rod T-Shirt.
Contentious perhaps, but I’ve always liked Hot Rod, I don’t care what anybody else says.
As well as T-Shirts they have baseball caps and both Autobot and Decepticon belt buckles.
In the final part of the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Press Conference, in London this week, Megan Fox replied to comments that Shia was a bad kisser, and a red faced LaBeouf seemed mightily embarrassed about his co-stars comments.
Michael Bay speaks about how good Shia is at acting without anything to act against, as the Transformers were added later in post production.
Megan Fox also speaks about the Hollywood lifestyle and how she would like to keep some of her private life private.
Watch the final part of the Transformers Press Conference here.
In the penultimate part of the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Press Conference in London, Michael Bay is asked a difficult question about how children are able to watch a film like Transformers which has a lot of robot violence in it. Michael defends the film as being ‘alien violence’ and parents should be allowed to raise their children anyway they like and watch the film if they want to.
Michael also talks about his distaste for motion capture and blue screen, which was used heavily in the Star Wars movies. Michael Bay is also asked if there are any landmarks on earth that he would like to blow up, in the movies at least!
Shia LaBeouf also talks about the Internet rumour that spread about him being attracted to his mother after an offhand comment he made. Megan Fox revealed that she doesn’t read anything online about herself and is embarrassed about comments towards her beauty.
Poor thing.
Watch the fourth part of the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen press conference in London here.
This is the third part of the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen press conference from London on Monday this last week. The stars of the film, and director Michael Bay speak about their time making Transformers 2.
Michael Bay talks about how the effects were made for Transformers Revenge of the Fallen and Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox speak about how they’ve handled their sudden rise to fame after Transformers.
Shia mentions how he had a much bigger trailer this time around as well!
The guys talk about their toys when they were kids, and no prises for guessing that Shia was a Transformers fan.
Megan Fox also explains her difficulty in being open with the press when they twist her words.
Finally Michael Bay speaks about Transformers 3 and what he expects it to be, how he intends to make a darker movie. He also says that many studios turned down the first Transformers but he championed the film to get it made.
Watch the Transformers 2 Press Conference Part 3 here.
