It is time again for one of those love or hate moments from the Transformers Movie. A new TV spot has been sneaked out of Dreamwave/Paramount headquarters and is now spreading across the internet.
The video is still using incomplete footage but does have Optimus Prime speaking with a close up of his mouth. Yes, a mouth. There is also a clip of Barricade tackling Prime and some humans talking.
The clip can be download from here at SuperHeroHype or viewed from YouTube.
We’ve received 3 new images from the new Transformers movie from Paramount. See them in our transformers forum.
TF@TM have managed to interview Kym Smith (Production) and Carl Cliss (Marketing) from Winning Moves, who are producing the Transformers Movie related Top Trumps card game.
Moon With the cards being giant robots as well as Humans, did this pose a problem when working out the statistics for the game?
Kym At first it looked like it may be a challenge but we’ve managed to get around that. Some people may have a problem with some of the stats if they try to analysis them too closely.
Moon Yes, it must be hard to find a balance, it’s a bit like comparing super-powers.
The full interview can be found here.
Simon Furman has produced another blog entry, this time commenting on the completion of the fourth issue of the UK Transformers comic, based on this summers Transformers Movie.

Issues #1-6 are linked to IDW’s Movie Prequel series but issues #3-6 concentrate more on individual characters who appear little or not at all in the IDW series.

Many UK game retailers have put up listings for Activision’s Transformers: The Game for PC, PS2, PS3, PSP, XB 360, DS (x2) and the Wii. What makes this rumour possibly true is that all the websites have the same date, 20th July, which is a Friday, the day of game releases in the UK. This is also a week before the UK release of the Movie, so would also make perfect sense.
Game – PC, PSP, PS2, PS3, XB 360, DS Autobots, DS Decepticons, Wii
Gameplay – PC, PSP, PS2, PS3, XB 360, DS Autobots, DS Decepticons, Wii
Play – PC, PSP, PS2, PS3, XB 360, DS Autobots, DS Decepticons, Wii
