United States Patent And Trademark Office has
updated the details of a previously known trademark; Transformers One.
Back then it was just classified as “
Entertainment Services”. Now however it is further explained as…
“Entertainment services, namely, the production and distribution of motion pictures; entertainment services, namely, ongoing television programs and an animated television series all in the field of children's entertainment”Also, the trademarks titled SPARK YOUR SUMMER, UNLOCK THE SECRETS and DESTINATION EARTH has now moved onto the status of “
A first request for extension of time to file a Statement of Use has been granted”. This means we’ll actually hear about them pretty soon. This writer’s best guess – A DOTM movie toyline just like the Hunt For The Decepticons ROTF Sequel Line.

blog with some info regarding who the colorists will be on the upcoming ongoings. For the upcoming
"Robots In Disguise" comic (Which isn't RiD/Car Robots, sadly), Josh Perez (known to some as Dyemooch) will be doing the colors alongside artist Andrew Griffith and writer John Barber. As far as "More Than Meets The Eye" Josh Burcham will be not only doing the colors, but reuniting with his fellow

Along with the Cyberverse sets, VicegripX spotted the Wave 3 Robo Fighters -
Megatron and
Roadbuster. These were also spotted earlier today at another TRU in WA, this time the Everett, WA TRU by 2005 Boards member ArchAngelz.

New in-hand images of
Bathing Ape Optimus Prime have been posted over at
ACToys by maxidea. This limited run cross-promotional Optimus Prime is a nice shade of green, with a camo trailer, and continues on the trend of Transformers X Brand kicked off by
Music Label Convoy X Exile Perfect Year back in 2008.
Unfortunately there is also some bad news about this release - 2005 Boards member HighPrime reports that
stocks of this piece were much more limited than expected (less than two dozen per store) - so limited that our sponsors Big Bad Toy Store are reducing preorders for customers who ordered multiples to one piece each, so as many fans can get this as possible.
