By way of
Lunartoystore we have a look at this Asia Exclusive re-release of Masterpiece Grimlock in his box. The figure is an exclusive to the Transformers China Exhibition, named "Cybertron Annual Exhibition" which starts on August 15 in Beijing. The theme of the event is "Contemporary Chinese Transformers" so the idea is going to be displays that integrate Transformers into traditional Chinese motifs.
As you can see from the images, the theme of the event extends to the packaging of this version of Grimlock, whose box features an Autobot symbol and text in a traditional Chinese brush style. The toy itself, if the back of box image is any indication, will be largely unchanged from the original release but will feature a crown instead of the drinks tray and apron.
It is expected that this Grimlock may carry a high asking price - as much as $250 potentially - though be sure to shop around, others, such as our sponsors, may get them for a lower price. Check out the images attached to this post.

Few hours ago we saw Spy Photos by Camaro5
revealing the new look for Transformers 4 Bumblebee.
Now, Michael Bay's Official Website has
revealed the new look.
However, contradicting the article from Camaro5, the Director's site says it is a 2014 Concept Camaro rather and a 6th Gen Chevrolet Camaro for year 2016.
"Trumpets please . . . Bumblebee, a 2014 Concept Camaro! . . . the final jewel in the Transformers 4 crown."According to the official description above, it seems this is the last vehicle reveal for the movie.

Many fans were skeptical when Michael Bay showed us the "new" look for Bumblebee of Transformers 4. The first question asked was
"That’s strange, why didn’t they upgrade Bumblebee to a brand new Camaro but instead went for an old look?" Well, it seems as though the question is answered.
Spy photos by
Camaro5; a website dedicated to all things Chevy Camaro, is revealing our New "New" Bumblebee; a modified 6th Gen Chevrolet Camaro 2016. Explaining the modification, the website says:
"While the Camaros in the first 3 Transformers movies were essentially production version Camaros with some unique aero parts added, the Transformers 4 Camaro will feature special bodywork – especially the front end. The entire front end is custom – from the futuristic looking LED headlights to the grille, to the front spoiler lip. The rear fenders feature an air vent and aggressive lower door character line and side skirts. The rear features vents on the hind quarters and a sporty diffuser, as well as a high spoiler."More images of Bumblebee rolling with the Autobots can be found, after the jump.
