Geoff Senior to attend Auto Assembly 2011!

Written by Duh_Prez on July 5, 2011 | News |

The people asked and the people received – ladies and gentlemen, Auto Assembly is proud to announce that the legendary G1 comic artist Geoff Senior is making his return to Europe’s largest Transformers convention in 2011!

As well as possessing one of the most recognisable and influential art styles to have graced the robots in disguise, Geoff was one of the two men behind the initial creation of everybody’s favourite Freelance Peacekeeping Agent, Death’s Head.

At Auto Assembly 2011, Geoff will be reunited with co-creator Simon Furman and modern day Death’s Head art  team Simon Williams, Kat Nicholson and Jason Cardy to talk about the evolution of one of our most loved returning characters in a never before seen group panel.

And to mark this special occasion, TheTransformers.net is proud to have sponsored a special edition Death’s Head postcard, with art from the modern day Death’s Head crew, which will be available in the Auto Assembly goody bags – now each and every one of you can take home a little piece of history and even have something to get signed by the whole creative team – thanks to all our members for making this possible!

Grim Monkey and Percy from our Transformers forum travelled to London this past weekend to interview Michael Bay and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley at the UK premiere of Transformers Dark of the Moon. While on the blue carpet (not red) the lads found out Rosie’s favourite Transformers, asked her how she’d coped going from modelling underwear to acting in a feature film, and they questioned Michael Bay about his decision to put flames on Optimus Prime!

Watch the full interview of both Transformers legends right here – it’s a cracker.

Fox fired for Fuhrer faux-pas!

Or something like that anyway.

Ever since it was revealed that Megan Fox would not be returning for the third instalment of the Transformers movie franchise, Transformers: The Dark of the Moon, those behind the movies have maintained that Fox, who played Sam Witwicky’s love interest Mikaela Banes, left on her own accord.

However, in the build up to the latest film, it has been revealed by the director of all three instalments, Michael Bay that she was fired under orders of executive producer Stephen Speilberg over comments she had made with regard to Bay.

In 2009, Fox, in an interview with Wonderland Magazine said “He’s like Napoleon and he wants to create this insane, infamous mad-man reputation. He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. So he’s a nightmare to work for”

On getting wind of this, Speilberg made the decision to have Fox written out of the third instalment, where she will be replaced by british actress Rosie Huntington-Whitely, playing Sam’s new love interest Carly.
