2011 TRANSFORMERS LINE CAPTURES THE ADVENTURE OF FIRST-EVER 3-D TRANSFORMERS MOVIE

New MECHTECH and CYBERVERSE Lines Lead Next Generation of TRANSFORMERS Action Figures, Vehicles and 3D Character Masks

Pawtucket, R.I., (February 2011) — The iconic TRANSFORMERS brand from Hasbro, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAS), which has become one of the most successful entertainment franchises of the 21st century, reaches new heights in 2011 when the heroic AUTOBOTS and the villainous DECEPTICONS once again invade movie theaters around the world to continue their epic battle. The new Paramount Pictures live-action movie from director Michael Bay, and executive producer Steven Spielberg, TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON picks up from the last movie with the DECEPTICONS vowing to avenge their defeat and ultimately results in mysterious ties to the 1960’s space race between the US and USSR. The movie — which will be the first-ever TRANSFORMERS film in 3D — opens worldwide on July 1, 2011.

Continuing the innovation, the TRANSFORMERS brand is excited to announce the new CINE-MASK 3D role-play masks.

From

More than 25 years ago, the Hasbro Toy Company forever changed the face of Action Figures with the introduction of the Transformers brand of converting toys.  Because of the unique engineering and styling of these toys, kids no longer had to choose between buying an action figure and buying a toy car or vehicle.  With Transformers, they could have both.

But it wasn't just the design elements of these new toys that attracted a whole generation of fans.  It was the characterization and personalities the creators of the brand decided to give each figure through careful promotion of comic books and cartoon series that has made the brand a fan favorite and one of the most popular and best selling toy lines even three decades later.

To celebrate the brand and it's millions of fans throughout the years, a new Live-Auction by TheBigToyAuction.com will spotlight the brand with it's upcoming "Roll Out and Bid" Sale.  The Live-Auction Event scheduled for Sunday, February 27th, beginning at 3:00 PM EDT, will feature a retrospective of Transformers toys ranging from vintage '80's figures right up through the modern toys of today and includes various merchandising tie-ins and exclusives throughout the Transformers' nearly 30 year run.

Highlights include a collection of ephemera ranging from file card "tech specs", Artwork and post cards, exclusive figures from past sold-out "Botcon"  conventions, and a wide range of vintage Generation 1 and 2 figures including the much sought after character Fortress Maximus - the largest Transformers figure ever produced, standing at over 2 feet tall in robot mode.

As with past TheBigToyAuction events, the auction will combine traditional bid-calling with streaming internet technology to allow bidders at home to interact with the fast-paced streaming audio as if they were already in the room at the event themselves.  For those wishing to just browse and listen in, the online catalog, featuring brief descriptions and multiple photographs of the over 200 lots available acts as an online museum of sorts, chronicling the rich history of the brand.The Live-Auction event kicks off Sunday, February 27th, starting at 3:00 PM EDT.  Registration and pre-bidding are already open online at http://TheBigToyAuction.com.

Transformers Convention News

Derrick Wyatt has confirmed that Motormasters "Stunt Convoy" will contain 6 memebers.  5 Stunticons and an extra, un named, member.  We are likely to see G2 Breakdown in there somewhere, probably the custom contest.  Another popular theory is that Wasp will be produced, as a green Bumblebee (which is very easy to do), or an animated transforming version of the black car chest plate of Menasor (which we used to call Black Knight).

@BotCon Technically there are SIX members in Motormaster's Stunt Convoy. I suppose if they are all truly Stunticons or not is debatable.
