The
official Transformers Facebook page has updated with official images revealing the fourth assortment of Transformers Generations Legends. Legends Wave 4 is the Decepticon assortment, and will feature Megatron with Ransack and Starscream with Waspinator!
As is the style with the Generations 30th Anniversary toys, these are based on the IDW comics designs, with Megatron sporting his "Megatron Origin / Chaos Theory" Cybertronian design and a tank alternate mode. Starscream meanwhile features the modernized Generation 1 style design originally featured in the artwork of E.J. Su in the Transformers: Infiltration miniseries.
Check out the images of the new two-packs and see what you think of them.

A while back, actor Tyrese Gibson
announced that he is in talks for Transformers 4. However, 7 months later Mr. Gibson spoke to
Moviehole regarding the matter. He had this to say...
"It’s looking like an appearance might happen. I haven’t got that phone call yet, officially. We’ll see what happens."We also learned that Josh Duhamel is to make a
cameo appearance on Transformers 4. It seems as though Tyrese Gibson's role in the upcoming movie may be the same. Only time will tell.

Few days back we saw the
IDW Bumblebee Mold Test Shots. Today, 2005 Boards Member cobra zartan is bringing us some test shots of upcoming IDW Trailcutter/Trailbreaker.
Trailcutter is a part of Hasbro's "Thrilling 30" anniversary campaign. The toy design is based on Alex Milne's character in the IDW More Than Meets the Eye Comic Book Series of the same name. Like the Bumblebee figure you saw on May 1st, this too is a Prototype Pre-Production design. These images will give you an idea on how the final product may look like, but actual design may vary.
Find more images, after the jump.

The next new Transformers toy to get featured in our galleries is the hot new Decepticon addition to the Generations line,
Blitzwing! Blitzwing has been in demand ever since the first assortment of Transformers Classics toys gave us an Astrotrain in 2006, a demand that only increased with the addition of Octane to the Universe line in 2008. It's been a long time coming, but Blitzwing has finally arrived in the Classics line.
Blitzwing is a Voyager class toy, and he feels nice and substantial. He has plenty of articulation and nice big feet which take his weight really well. The shoulders are a bit awkward out of the box - they pop out very easily - though there are ways to modify them for a better fit;
check out one such modification in our Radicons Customs section here. Blitzwing features both his alternate modes, jet and tank, and they do a good job of being distinct from each other thanks to some rather clever tricks. In a homage to the Transformers Animated Blitzwing, Generations Blitzwing sports the three different faces of that character, an excellent and fun touch.
Overall Blitzwing is a great toy. The shoulders are the weakest point about him, along with some of the more rubbery parts, but I would invite you to look past that and see just how much of a masterwork this new, definitive version of Blitzwing really is.
