Hasbro has stated that Silver Knight Optimus Prime will join the roster of characters for the Transformers: Age Of Extinction Mobile Game by DeNA.
Silver Knight Optimus Prime is an abandoned concept for the 4th Transformers movie. Optimus Prime was to receive the Silver Knight upgrade when he touched the Sword Of Judgement. However, certain elements from the update was kept in the final movie; such as the rocket boosters.
"Enemies make way for The Silver Knight, as he unleashes a devastating laser beam on anything in his path! Add him to your team in the Transformers: Age of Extinction app from DeNA, starting on 1/8.*"

Concept artist
Tom Stockwell has shared some artwork which he provided for Jagex for their sadly now closed Transformers Universe MOTA game. Tom, who was a senior artist for the project, has shared artwork including designs of Ratchet, Hound, a Transformers Prime inspired Arcee and a Megatron best described as Transformers Prime Megatron with a tank alternate mode. The artwork is awesome, and it is a shame we never got to see these designs fully realised.
Check out the artwork at
Tom Stockwell's portfolio, Artstation (some non-TF pieces may be considered unsafe for work)

Just in are new images of TakaraTomy's upcoming Masterpiece G2 Bumblebee and the leader class Legends Megatron. The battle mask previously exclusive to Amazon will come with this new version of Bumblebee. In addition the figure is painted in gold as an homage to the original G2 figure. Swappable faces are still included. A jetpack is included in lieu of Exosuit Daniel.
Legends Megatron doesn't seem to be that much different(deco-wise) compared to Hasbro's Generations Leader Megatron.
Images are from the Planet Iacon Facebook
page. Read on to see both images.

Canadian Transformers site, it seems we can now confirm this one is also coming out in the US, complete with an in-package shot!

Zap2it has updated with details of the next four episodes of Tranformers Rescue Bots. There are no air dates as yet - common thought is these will be airing in February on Discovery Family Channel - but we have the titles and the one-line descriptions of what each of these new installments of Transformers fun is all about.
Season 3, episode 11 - Did You See What I Thaw?: The Bots discover a caveman preserved in ice and attempt to help him adjust to modern life.
S3 E12 - The Attack of Humungado: Monsters from Kade's favorite movie materialize; it's up to the Dino Bots to corral the Kaiju.
S3 E13 - Thieves Like Us: The Bots must contend with thieving miniature souvenir replicas of themselves.
S3 E14 - Time After Time: A renovated clock tower causes Cody to relive the same morning over and over.

The Hasbro Transformers website has now fully updated to reflect the new show that is coming our way in February, Robots in Disguise! The site now features video clips (
reported earlier), a
section to talk about the characters complete with one-line bios,
a toys section (including
a dedicated Combiner Wars section with some sweet Superion artwork), and last but not least,
a Comic Creator.
The Comic Creator is an interesting one - it's basic, but it gives a look at some different stock art of the various characters. The way text is handled is by selecting quotes from a list. Some of the quotes seem suitably ominous - "I sense the Allspark is near" being a big one. "Citizens of the human-hive, prepare for destruction" is another. If these two lines are actually in the series, and not just something Hasbro made up for this, there's some interesting things ahead.
On the toys front, there is not much in the way of new reveals - except - on the images linking to the Hero Mashers sections, you can see a glimpse of the Robots in Disguise Hero Mashers Bumblebee, Sideswipe and Steeljaw.
Be sure to check out the new-look
Transformers.com!
