Entertainment Earth has updated with some new case listings of upcoming Transformers product releases. Key points of the new case listings include:
Generations Voyager Wave 7 will feature 1 x Springer, 1 x Sky Byte and 2 x Roadbusters
Generations 2014 Deluxe Wave 3 will feature 2 x Rattrap, 2 x Tankor, 1 x Armada Starscream, 1 x Mini-Con Combiner, 1 x Scoop and 1 x Fall of Cybertron Skywarp
Age of Extinction Deluxe Wave 2 is due in July, and features 2 of Lockdown, Strafe, Slash and Drift per case. A revision case swaps out the Lockdowns for a Bumblebee and a Slug - so Lockdown is going to be the hard to find one, it appears.
Age of Extinction Voyager Wave 2 is also coming in July, with two revisions. The first case assortment packs 1 x Grimlock, 1 x Hound and 2 x Galvatron, with the revision taking out a Galvatron for an extra Evasion Mode Optimus Prime.
There are also listings for Wave 2 of the One Step Changers which will feature one of each of Lockdown, Grimlock, Slash, Hound, Bumblebee and Crosshairs per case, and Power Attackers Wave 2 which will feature two each of Hound, Optimus Prime, Drift and Scorn per case.

USA Today had the pleasure to talk with Transformers: Age Of Extinction executive producer Mr. Lorenzo di Bonavetura and he is sharing with us 3 new stills (no; not humans this time) from the upcoming Michael Bay movie.
The interview and the images highlight the weapons of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee.
Optimus Prime goes from junkyard shabby to wielding a new power sword in no time.
"The sword is emblematic of what we've done to Optimus Prime as a whole," says Di Bonaventura. "He's been upgraded with more abilities."
Bumblebee takes his martial arts to another level with Chinese star-style adornments on his armor. The two also have new souped-up transformation vehicles. Optimus Prime eventually reveals himself "like a knight in shining armor" as an impressive Great Western truck, says Di Bonaventura. Bumblebee re-emerges as a new souped-up Camaro. Yellow, naturally.
The upgrades continue with the introduction of Dinobots, ancient creatures who enter the franchise "with their fists and feet first," says Di Bonaventura.You can read the rest of the interview at
USA Today and check out the new images, after the jump.
