Some sleuthing from
Snakas has uncovered a fresh image of the E-Hobby Mebion / Magnificus that was teased yesterday. As speculated, the image confirms that what was being teased was a black, Decepticon version of Reveal the Shield Perceptor (complete with alternate, toy accurate head sculpt). According to Snakas, E-Hobby is due to start preorders on this item on March 26, with the preorder period closing at 12:00PM, May 8th. The release is priced at 5,500 yen.
Snakas urges just a little caution in his report though - the image of Mebion shown here was uncovered through manipulating the URL of yesterday's teaser image - so much like the Botcon 2010 Clench as Octane redeco, it
could be a red herring. However we feel that the overwhelming balance of the evidence so far points to this being the genuine article.

With a little over 15 months to go until Transformers 4, it's about time for us to learn a few tantalizing details of what Transformers 4 might have in store - and by way of a press release from the Michigan Film Office, we have those details to share with you! It reads as a plot summary, giving the broad-brush overview of what the plot might entail.
These are spoilers, naturally, so stop reading now if you do not want to be spoiled! If you don't mind spoilers, then highlight the text below to read:
As humanity picks up the pieces, following the conclusion of Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Autobots and Decepticons have all but vanished from the face of the planet.
However, a group of powerful, ingenious businessman and scientists attempt to learn from past Transformer incursions and push the boundaries of technology beyond what they can control – all while an ancient, powerful Transformer menace sets Earth in his crosshairs. The epic adventure and battle between good and evil, freedom and enslavement ensues.
This was originally posted on
M Live, in an article which also confirms that Transformers 4 will film in Metro Detroit.

In hand images of the third wave of Cyberverse figures from the new Beast Hunters line have
surfaced courtesy of freaky777 over on fellow fansite seibertron. Wave three consists of Terrorcon
Hun-Gurr and
Prowl, a redeco of
Smokescreen. Prowl rocks his traditional black and white color scheme while brandishing his new weapon, the justice hammer. Hun-Gurr will be the second individually released Terrorcon cyberverse figure. These pictures also confirm that the individual Terrorcon figures can, in fact, combine. No additional pieces will be needed to merge the figures into Abominus. The third figure in this wave,
Soundwave, isn't shown in this batch of pictures, but hopefully some in hand images won't be far behind.

E-Hobby have updated their website with a tease for an upcoming project. There are three red lights and the words "look closer" in the background. A closer inspection reveals six seemingly random letters hidden in the three red lights, which the sharp eyed have worked out can be made to spell out "Mebion".
It's up to interpretation, but "Mebion" has been referenced in E-Hobby fiction before. The character whose bio referenced Mebion?
Magnificus, a black and red version of Perceptor, based on his Microman deco. And what is one of the main features of the deco of Reveal the Shield Perceptor, if not the three lights on top of his roof in vehicle mode.
So pulling all that together, is E-Hobby teasing a Reveal the Shield Perceptor redecoed as Classics Magnificus?
