Amazon.co.jp has also updated their preorder page with higher resolution images of Alternity Thundercracker. While you may have seen these images before, odds are you have not seen them in this high a definition. One thing to note when viewing these images are that they are probably not the final product - they appear to be photoshops of the official images released for Alternity Skywarp. However they give a very good idea of what the final toy might look like!

Real Life Transformers a Step Closer to Reality
Posted by News Fetcher on July 01 '10 at 02:45 AM

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:
We're moving a step closer to having real life Transformers among us! The Pentagon's Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (Darpa) has developed this robot, barely thicker than a sheet of paper. It can only transform into two forms, a boat and a paper plane, at this time, but the hopes are that this can eventually be developed to provide larger scale transforming tools and equipment.

Could real life Transformers be far away - or failing that, masked crusaders, doing overtime, fighting crime? Check out the original report over at the Daily Telegraph online.

Takara-Tomy Announces their next Masterpiece - Movie Starscream!
Posted by News Fetcher on July 01 '10 at 02:30 AM

By Sol Fury from TFW2005:
Fans sometimes throw around the term "Masterpiece" quite freely - especially when it comes to the excellent level of engineering in the Leader Class Revenge of the Fallen toys. Takara-Tomy seems to feel the same way, because their next Masterpiece toy is none other than a Japanese release of Leader Class Movie Starscream! Packaged in a box reminiscent of Takara-Tomy's other Masterpiece offerings, MP-M01 Starscream features a cleaner, non-tatooed look for Starscream compared to the version recently released at US retail - in the one promotional picture of the robot itself, at least. The box photography still features the tatooed Starscream we're getting in the west, so who knows what the final product will be?
