Remember some while
back when we brought you images of some resin prototype tank figures. Now we have two different tanks, plus two different planes that have appeared on a
chinese website. Shown in both robot and alternate modes do you think these are new characters or are they homaging someone else?

MSN's Transformers Prime episode listing has updated with the titles of the next two Transformers Prime episodes. They are, "Out of his Head" and "Shadowzone".
Cryptic, no? Given the description of episode 13 offered, Out of his Head might well be a continuation of Sick Mind. Speaking of Sick Mind, a more detailed synopsis is now available on
TVGuide - A Decepticon plague infects Optimus Prime, so Arcee and Bumblebee sneak onto the Nemesis to find the cure.
Whatever these two latest cryptic titles refer to, the story of Transformers Prime is beginning to gain pace as the halfway mark of the first season is passed. As always, we will update you when new information becomes available.

Congratulations Rosie Huntington-Whiteley! She is this year’s Cinemacon (previously known as Showest) “Female Star of Tomorrow”.
Rosie then talked with
Access Hollywood and
MTV, who caught-up with her after the Convention.
"I've seen the last two movies, so I kind of knew what I was getting into, but obviously not at all as well," Whiteley said of being a bit overwhelmed by the big movie experience. "It was a crazy opportunity that was handed to me, and I spent seven months making the movie with a great cast and a great director, and it's been a roller coaster of a lifetime for sure," she said. "I'm still on it, I don't know if I'm going to get off anytime soon."She also had fun explaining her audition and a kissing scene in the movie with Shia LaBeouf (Sam Witwicky).
Rosie, who is playing Carly of Transformers 3 then praised Director Michal Bay for the commitment he’s been doing for the Transformers franchise throughout the past 6 years.
Take a look at both interviews, after the jump.
Transformers: Dark of the Moon releasing July 1st, 2011.

Is this for real? Is it a KO? Is this an April Fools Day Joke? Questions are asked… Answer remains.
An auction posted at
Yahoo Auctions, Japan is revealing what looks like a Deluxe Class version of Transformers: Dark of the Moon Optimus Prime.
The toy looks authentic and looks really neat for a Deluxe sized version of the Autobot Leader.

April Fools! Earlier today we posted a thread asking for you to vote on your picks for our submission to the Hall of Fame, containing such notoriously questionably named characters as the legendary Erector, Windbreaker and Drillnuts. Naturally as many of you deduced this had nothing to do with the Hasbro Transformers Hall of Fame...
... because you were actually voting in this year's "TFW April Fools Day Hall of Fame"! With a 18,016 vote lead (in a thread with only 3,536 views) the natural winner who rose up higher than all the other silly named Transformers was Erector!
Erector's campaign manager, Locustreign, had this to say about the little Micromaster's win: "vote rigging? What's that?"
Hope you all had a fun time! Stay tuned for the
real Hasbro Transformers Hall of Fame poll in just a few short hours!

Ask Dr. Sheldon Cooper and he’d tell us all about Leonard Nimoy. Many of you know him as the heart and soul of Spock in the original Star Trek series (1966–1969). “What’s up?” you’d say. And I’d say… "He’s the voice of Sentinel Prime of Transformers: Dark of the Moon."
Entertainment Weekly is delivering and TFW2005 is breaking the news to the Transformers fans all around the world.
“Mr. Spock himself, Leonard Nimoy, has joined the film as the voice of Sentinel Prime, the predecessor of Optimus Prime whose wrecked body is seen in the teaser trailer, found crash-landed on the moon by the Apollo 11 astronauts in 1969. Later, after being brought to earth, he takes the disguise form of a fire engine in the movie’s massive, climactic battle through Chicago.”According to Mr. Michael Bay…
“I was too scared to ask him,” the director says. “Plus, he’s married to Susan Bay, who’s a cousin of mine. So I had to be careful. I’ve met him at family functions. But he told me, ‘I would be honored. I’m glad to be back!’” (Back? Yes, "Back". Leonard Nimoy was the voice of Galvatron back in 1986)
There you have it folks! Hopefully, this is NOT an April Fools Day Joke!
Live Long And Prosper!

No Transformers/Cybertronians yet… Sorry folks.
We have 3 stills from the upcoming 3rd live action movie Transformers: Dark of the Moon.
Here we see…
Sam running with stuff blowing-up behind him.
Lennox and his team running with stuff blowing-up behind them.
And finally… Sam and Carly (No, not running with stuff blowing-up behind them) near a bus with lettering on the side, showing “
Bay City”.

Transformers Comic Book Storyteller Simon Furman surprised everyone while he was being interviewed recently.
"
The GI Joe fans are thrilled that Hama has continued the original ARAH continuity and that has sparked some of us here to ask Andy if the same could be done for TF’s. Have you given any thought to continuing the original TF continuity from the Marvel run? And an even better question is, are you even interested in going down that road?
Simon: I actually would like to pick up the baton from Marvel issue #80 and run with it again. There was a lot we never got to do, that I’d like to revisit or just to take the next big steps with all that we’d set up in the previous 20 or so issues. I’d certainly rather do G1 #81 than G2 #13, as, strangely, and for no good reason I can formulate into words, I think the time has passed for G2. It was very, well… 90s."
Dudes over at the
IDW Forums are gathering to show their support to bring Mr. Furman back. And with it the return of
Marvel G1 Transformers Universe which ended with Issue #80; “
End of the Road!” back in May 1991.
Show your support by commenting here at TFW2005 and at IDW Forums.

A seller from Australia has put up an
eBay auction for a Toys "R" Us exclusive Transformers: Dark of the Moon Cyberverse Legion 4-Pack.
The set contains 2 Bumblebees and 2 Starscream repaints.
While one Bumblebee looks like an ordinary version the other Bumblebee is clearly a “Trans-scanning” (according to the “Trans-scanning” term found on the leaked toy list) version.
As for the Starscream toys, one figure is none other than the
Transformers: War For Cybertron Cyber Starscream (Redeco of Cybertron Legends Starscream) distributed exclusively for UK Shopto.net customers.
