Igear has unleashed preorders for their upcoming highly anticipated second wave of Mini Warrior figures. The two figures up for preorder are: MW-03 Hench (an updated Generation 1 Brawn figure) and MW-04 UFO (an updated Generation 1 Cosmos figure). Both figures should slide easily onto any fans Classics Transformers shelves. These two figures will come in a slightly larger scale than the previous two Mini-Warriors, and as such, the price has increased as well.
You can preorder these two figures at any of the following online retailers:
Bigbadtoystore.com,
TFSource, and
Robotkingdom.

This is a happy news coming from April Fools’ Day.TFLAMB
reports that Michael Bay’s Transformers: Dark of the Moon did not
win any Razzie Awards this year.
For those who do not know, The Golden Raspberry Awards or “
Razzies” for short, is an award ceremony for motion pictures that are judged to be of low quality considering Script, Acting, Directing and many other aspects.
Though Transformers 3 got nominated this year, it didn’t “
win” any Razzie Awards. As Optimus Prime of 2005 Boards
reported, TF3 was nominated for the following categories:
Worst Picture
Worst Supporting Actress (Rosie Huntington-Whitely)
Worst Supporting Actor (Patrick Dempsey)
Wost Screen Ensemble (The Entire Cast)
Worst Director (Michael Bay)
Worst Screen Couple (Shia Lebeouf & Rosie Huntington-Whitely)

To go with the new "Cybertron Satellite" campaign running in Japan, there are a number of special Primes who have been created to act as mascots for certain towns and neighborhoods. They are all based on existing Transformers characters, with some shoutouts to the neighborhood who they are a mascot for. They are:
Akiba Prime, based on Transformers Prime Arcee by way of Sailor Moon for Akihabara's otaku culture.
Kawasaki Prime, based on Generation 1 Jazz with a water motif for the local Tama River.
Nagoya Prime, based on Movie Ironhide and featuring shoulder designs based on the golden dolphins of Nagoya Castle.
Tachikawa Prime, based on Revenge of the Fallen Legends Springer, with a military style inspired by the Tachikawa Airfield.
Umeda Prime, based on Movie Ratchet, with tiger stripes and a tail in connection with the Hanshin Tigers.
There is also a Ginza Prime, who has yet to be seen.
Snakas also has some pictures up of the in-store display for the Cybertron Satellite.
Special thanks to the
TFWiki for information on the local inspirations behind each of the designs.
