For any UK fans looking for a bargin on Transformers movie toys from Hasbro, Woolworths are having a 25% off sale on all Transformers stock. This is probably a move to sell off all remaining Transformers movie related products before Transformers: Animated toys come along in a few months time.
The latest Transformers movie Allspark line is out, with the Deluxes CliffJumper, Landmine & Camshaft all at £8.24.
Thanks to forum member iprimus for the news.
Hasbro are reporting that profits are higher than expected for the forth quarter after stronger sales of Transformers, Nerf and Furreal Friends. It is good to see that internationally, sales were up. This is mainly due to Hasbro actually releasing toys outisde North Amercia.
Hasbro’s international segment sales, meanwhile, climbed 29 percent as operating profit rose 40 percent.
Full details can be found at Yahoo.
TheTransformers.de (no relation) have received news that Transformers: Animated will be airing on 20th June on channel Super RTL. This will coinside with the release of the Transformers: Animated toyline from Hasbro, but not specific toy releases are known at this time.
TF@TM have a report summarising the events of the British Toy Fair 08 from last week. There is news on the Transformers: Animated, Transformers movie, Transformers Universe and Marvel Transformers (basically Star Wars Transformers but with Marvel characters) lines from Hasbro UK.
The movie line will continue until Animated is brought in, with Universe starting soon after.
Of course, we have had promises from Hasbro UK before and have been disappointed but given the success of the Transformers movie line last year, it is looking good for 2008.
An auction on ebay claims to be a prototype for an unreleased Universe figure by Hasbro, called Menasor. The figure was meant to be a repaint of Machine Wars Optimus Prime. The colours were never applied to the toy but art was designed for the figure, which gives an idea of the paint scheme.
The art, which was done by Don Figueroa, can be seen here.
New images of Transformers Movie Premium Leader Class Megatron in package have appeared on ebay. The photos show the back of the packaging, which reveal his tech specs and profile, as well as all the gimmicks that go with the toy.
Forum member Perceptor has spotted some of the Transformers movie Allspark Battle Legend 2 packs at his local Tesco store. Sighted were Nightwatch Prime vs Stealth Starscream (Wave 2) and Decepticon Brawl vs Rescue Ratchet (Wave 1) for £5.97 each.
He also picked up Deluxe class Landmine and Autobot Camshaft in Toys n Tuck, a local toystore. It’s not clear if these are imports or an actual UK release.
UPDATE: It turns out Landmine and Autobot Camshaft are both in UK packaging, so are part of an official UK release. The other wave 7 deluxe figure, Cliffjumper, has also been spotted.
On auction site Taobao, some auctions have been posted for some new and unseen single-pack Transformers movie Legends figures, which have already been released in AllSpark Battles two-packs.
The two figures on display are Cliffjumper and Bonecrusher. They are in European packaging, which means there is a likely chance that they will be released in the contenent. There is no confirmation from Hasbro on when they will be released.
A new auction on ebay has pictures of the upcoming Transformers movie Premium-Series Optimus Prime figure. The Leader Class figure has a new paint scheme, which seems to give the figure a more metallic and detailed look, a new arm-blade and a new head sculpt, which resembles the movie version a lot more than the original figure.
Hasbro have updated their MonkeyBarTV site with four new desktop wallpapers. There is one with Starscream, one with Optimus Prime, one with all the Autobots in robot mode and one with the Autobots in vehicle mode.
For each wallpaper, there are 3 resolutions; 1280×1024, 1024×768 and 800×600.
There are also wallpapers for the Transformers movie and Transformers: Cybertron.
