FLINT DILLE has spent most of his creative life on the porous border between the game business and the film business. He has designed games with Gary Gygax and written movies for Steven Spielberg. His friend, Frank Miller, immortalized him as Dillios (a Spartan-ization of Dille), the narrator in 300. Flint has twice won 'Game Script of the Year' (Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay and Dead to Rights and is up for awards for Ghostbusters and Dark Athena.

He has worked on numerous franchises including Transformers (writer on Transformers: The Movie), G.I. Joe, James Bond, Batman (in Guinness Book of Videogame Records for having created the first Batman villain outside of the comics), Superman, Dungeons & Dragons, American Tail, Teen Titans, Scooby-Doo (writing a story about the guy who made all of those rubber costumes) and is the grandson of the originator of Buck Rogers. He has a degree in Ancient History from U.C. Berkeley and an MFA from USC. He is also a consultant to the intelligence community.

Don't miss this opportunity to meet Flint at the 2011 BotCon in Pasadena, Calif. for autographs and a very special panel on Saturday, June 4th!

David Kaye updated his Twitter account with the following announcement:

"Will be appearing @BotCon this year. Friday June 3 1 to about 4. Look forward to seeing you there!"

This was then followed by the Botcon Twitter account also tweeting in reference to the first voice actor guest announcement for the event

"Looks like @dkayevo broke the news! David Kaye will be at BotCon 2011 for autographs and a very special panel. Details coming later!"

For those UK'ers and European who can not attend Botcon do not fear as David will be attending this years Auto Assembly so you will have another chance to meet the voice of Megatron and Optimus Prime

The head has been shown before, but now Derrick J Wyatt has tweeted a full body picture of his vision for Transformers Animated Longrack.

­Hasbro have posted images of Transformers Dark of the Moon Cyberverse Legion Class Leadfoot, Commander Class Blackout, Legion Class Crowbar and Bolt Bumblebee.

The profile state

CROWBAR infiltrates and observes AUTOBOT tactical movements with unmatched stealth and intellect. He has been trained in the most brutal DECEPTICON attack strategies for the unlikely event he is discovered.

BUMBLEBEE charges into battle, engine roaring, and ready to turn DECEPTICONS into scrap. His dogged bravery is idolized by the AUTOBOTS and feared by his enemies!

LEADFOOT and his cohorts drive fast, have a thing for loud weapons and maintain a strong dislike for DECEPTICONS. But LEADFOOT is not all flash and show; while on CYBERTRON he was called a genius weapon designer!

Together with SCORPONOK, this massive DECEPTION destroyer seeks out his leader’s enemies and annihilates them. BLACKOUT leaves no witnesses to his passing, preferring to destroy everything around him rather than leave anything behind that might benefit the enemy.

TFW2005 member Fabermax has posted images of the Transformers Dark of the Moon Cyberverse Wave Two Powerglide toy.

This is what he has to say about the Transformers toy.

So on to a quick review. After opening him, I will say some of the hype died down. He still is a cool homage to PG, but this figure needed to be a deluxe! Plain and simple. He is just too small in my opinion. As you can see in the pic with Cliff, CJ towers over the lil guy. And as some had speculated the head DOES NOT turn. The transformation of the front of the plane doesn't allow it.

Speaking of transformation, the plane mode by far outshines the robot mode. The alt just screams G1 Powerglide, much more than the Universe version does. Again, why oh why couldn't this have been a deluxe. The Transformation of this guy is pretty slick too. Although he resembles the A-10's from the Universe and RotF Aerialbots (comparison pics to come later) his transformation is more complex, and that's cool considering he is such a small bot. Think Breacher. One additional minor gripe I have is that the colors are more maroon than red. Powerglide was clearly a red plane, and this guy is more of the same color as Warpath instead of Universe PG's bright vibrant red.

The missle/gun gimmick (i didnt take pics of it yet) didn't come out that well to me. Once all the missiles combine it kind of looks like a...bunch of missiles stuck together to look like a gun. More details once I take pics.

Overall he's an ok figure, not as hype as I was when I saw him in package vs opening him, especially when holding him up to Cliffjumper, but some will be ok with that since he was a minicon, but for me the minicon size has been re-established due to TF CHUG, and they missed the mark on him again. Universe was too big and now DotM is too small.

It's suprising that Amazon were allowed to publish this, if it is indeed close to the movie story.
