Nikko RC has
updated their Facebook page with some new images from their upcoming Transformers: Age Of Extinction line.
First things first: The mysterious Helicopter now has a Faction Symbol. To check out what it is… take a look at the image attached with this news post. But the name of the robot is not revealed yet.
Also, we have with us a good look at the Lockdown RC Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4. The official Facebook page also teases us with more screen-accurate Optimus Prime and Bumblebee RC Vehicles that will release in the future.
TFW2005 also received some Hi Res images of the Transformers: Age Of Extinction Nikko RC toys seen at the UK Toy Fair. However, the Helicopter does not contain the Faction Symbol, indication the hi-res images are a bit old.
Speaking of Nikko, the company was recently purchased by Toy State. However, their dedication towards the partnership brands such as Transformers will remain the same.
Checkout all of these, at the images section of this news post.

Like we previously
reported, Oreo brand released its brand new TV commercial for their Transformers 4 Age of Extinction campaign.
The commercial is directed by Michael Bay himself, and it uses a whole lot of the infamous scene where Optimus gets shot by Lockdown... twice. From this commercial, we see get to see the extended version of it and Optimus gets shot from behind first (like in the trailers), then when he turns around, he gets the final shot that knocks him down. But of course he gets up by the power of... Oreos.
Check out the cool clip below and discuss it on our boards.

Snakas has posted a (Japanese language) roundup of the recent Transformers 30th anniversary celebration event in Japan, where the Takara-Tomy Transformers team were in attendance.
While at the event, the team dropped a few hints at future plans. The first hint was that the team want to put out more Generation 1 themed recolors of the Age of Extinction Dinobot toys in addition to the already-announced recolors of Grimlock and Slug.
The second one which will please Masterpiece fans was a declaration that in the future, more Destron Masterpieces will come out. No hints at whom, though with Takara-Tomy's trend at looking to the early years of Transformers, safe bets might be the likes of Shockwave, a new Megatron, Galvatron, or possibly the three Decepticon "conehead" jets given the easy mold reuse potential. Keep it TFW for more news on that morsel!
It was also hinted that more past Transformers Movie toys might make an appearance in the Takara-Tomy Movie Advanced line, the Japanese version of the Age of Extinction Generations series which has already featured reuses of the popular Battle Blade Optimus Prime and Battle Blade Bumblebee toys.
You can check out the full text of Snakas' report here (in Japanese, so you might want to run it through Google Translate or another online translator).
