Robot Kingdom has posted images of the next two entries into the Transformers Alternity line -
Dai Atlas and
Goldbug, redecos of Alternity
Convoy and
Bumble respectively. Neither of them feature different heads as had been reported, just alternate paint schemes. The paint schemes do look like they have a nice metallic finish, but will this be enough to sway you into buying these two new Alternities?
The lack of new head toolings suggests that the other two reported Alternity releases, Banzai-Tron and Galvatron, will also use existing heads, although this news hopes that if only one of these does get a new head, it is Galvatron.

Hasbro has applied for a new Trademark at the United States Patent and Trademark Office, TFW2005 learns. The trademark is named UNIT:E and is classified under various categories including
Motion Picture.
The description clearly mention a numerous amount of detail that may apply to many of Hasbro’s brands including Transformers, G. I. Joe, My Little Pony, Nerf, Monopoly and many others (complete description, after the jump).
This new trademark may apply to anything, for we do not know exactly what it means. However, if you all would recall, last year in May,
leaked information from Hasbro mentioned a movie featuring many of its brands; a movie very much like Toy Story but with Hasbro toys.
We will update you on this new development as soon as we hear more stuff.
Stay tuned with TFW2005, HISSTANK and TOYARK for more info.Read Replies (0)

A few days ago, we
broke news about an upcoming Mastermind Creations exclusive repaint based on
Shattered Glass Optimus Prime. TFW2005's very own Vangelus (who does a little podcast for the site called
WTF@TFW) visited Cherry Bomb Toys to talk (as well as take review footage) about the upcoming third-party toy, which is exclusive to the 8th Annual Victoria's Ultimate Toy and Hobby Fair, through
Cherry Bomb Toys. There will be only 500 of this item made, 200 of which are special bundles with a special axe made by Renderform. There is also a non-attendee version, that will ship after the show itself.

There is an element which Hasbro should (and I’m sure they are) be proud of. An element which helped them to keep the Transformers Franchise going since its inception back in 1984. An element which demands, debates, appraise and even help taking the third Michael Bay Transformers Live Action Movie to become the
5th Highest Grossing Movie Of All-Time. This element therefore is the most valuable part of the franchise…
The Fans.
Transformer Peru is a group which started back in 2003 and grew to be an association recognized by the Peru Government. Their dedication, hard work has led them to become a cultural aspect of their country, something we all as Transformers Fans should be proud of.
You can take a look at what they have done to make Transformers: Dark of the Moon, a success in Peru and appreciate their hard work, over
at the thread 2005 Boards Member
Neo-Bombshell has shared with us.
TFW2005 wish them all success and a wonderful future ahead. Good luck guys, keep-up the good work!Read Replies (0)
