We have updated our image gallery of the unreleased prototype of Green Warrior Lio Convoy from Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo. The gallery was recently updated with some stills from the Beast Wars II episodes where Lio Convoy and Lion Convoy Jr merge into the Green Warrior but now for the first time you can view a complete image gallery of the toy that is sometimes, wrongly, referred to as a Takara Staff item.
We have also included comparison images with our entire Lio Convoy collection which includes the original release, black, gold, galva, flash, both robot masters and a knock-off. Enjoy

TFW2005.com board member Magnus' Mate has spotted a new book listing on Amazon UK titled
The Transformers Vault: The Complete Transformers Universe. The book is listed as being 160 pages and is written by Pablo Hidalgo. The author has received mix reviews for his work in the past, but the publisher ABRAMS, received lavish praise for their Star Wars book which was also called The Valt.
The book, I expect, will cover a wide spectrum of the Transformers Universe from the toys, to comics, cartoons and merchandise. Obviously there is no way you could cover everything in 160 pages, but it will be worth keeping an eye on

The Allspark.comres recently received a reply from Hasbro US's Public Relations group regarding the US release of
the Challenge at Cybertron 3-Pack. The reply they received is one that may not go down well with US fans, UK fans had already been informed that the Rodimus, Galvatron and Cyclonus set would not be released over here.
We’ve confirmed that the item in question is exclusive to the Asia market – not the U.S. Sorry for any confusion.
This set was rumored to
be a Target Exclusive, but it appears there are no plans to release it
within the USA at this time.

Los Angeles, Sept. 2010 - Emmy-Award winning recording artist Stan
Bush, a worldwide icon of Melodic Rock, releasing his new album "Dream
the Dream" now available at stanbush.com!
Dream the Dream, Stan Bush’s 11th studio album, finds the veteran
singer/songwriter on top of his game, delivering the kind of powerful
melodies and positively charged lyrics that have earned him a loyal
following that spans the globe. Longtime fans and new listeners alike
will be pleased to find Bush’s no-nonsense approach to rock n’ roll and
emotive lyrics ring true in this new audio gem, the follow up to his
critically acclaimed 2007 smash, In This Life. "We’ve been working on
the new album for a year and a half, and I’m very happy with it," says
Bush, "the last album, In This Life, got great reviews and though we had
to work really hard, I think we’ve got ourselves another amazing album.
Some of the songs have a ‘go for it’ message, and some are about love,
life and a search for meaning."
Producer and multi-instrumentalist Holger Fath joins with Stan Bush
once again for Dream the Dream, co-creating more of the unique brand of
melodic rock that has become their hallmark. Other songwriters
contributing to this new release are Bobby Barth (Axe, Blackfoot,NULL), Curt
Cuomo (KISS, Eddie Money,NULL), Ed Tree and Lenny Macaluso. "I was honored to
again work with Holger Fath as producer/guitarist (and also keys,NULL),"
offers Bush, "I think he’s brilliant, and he’s been a close friend for
years. Matt Laug (Alice Cooper, Slash,NULL), is one of the best rock drummers
in Los Angeles, and on bass, Matt Bissonette (David Lee Roth, Rick
Springfield,NULL), is incredibly solid."
While crafting new material, tracks from Stan Bush’s previous albums
have continued to appear in television and major motion pictures the
world over. His all-time hit "The Touch" from "Transformers: The Movie"
and "Boogie Nights" was also featured on Chuck (NBC) and recently on
American Dad (FOX). Stan’s song "Til All Are One (Transformers Theme)"
is featured in the new Activision game. Transformers: War for Cybertron.
Bush’s "’Til I Was Loved by You" captured an Emmy Award in 1997 for
Best Original Song, a true career highlight. As a vocalist, Bush has
sung on albums by renowned artists such as Alice Cooper and Jefferson
Starship, and has worked with a bevy of the music industry’s top
producers including Ron Nevison, Giorgio Moroder, Andy Johns, Mick
Jones, Desmond Child, Peter Frampton and Richie Zito. Bush has
co-written with top songwriters like Jonathan Cain (Journey,NULL), and Jim
Vallance (Bryan Adams, Aerosmith,NULL), and Paul Stanley of KISS.
A European tour in support of the release of Dream the Dream will be
announced by Stan Bush in the near future with details and dates
forthcoming.
Dream the Dream final track listing:
Never Hold Back
I’m Still Here
Don’t Give Up On Love
Two Hearts
In My Life
Love Is The Road
If This Is All There Is
Dream The Dream
More Than A Miracle
Your Time
All That I Am
Sam’s Theme (The Touch)
Musicians on Dream the Dream: Stan Bush (vocals) Holger Fath (guitars, keyboards) Matt Bissonette (bass) Matt Laug (drums)

Our Lucky Draw Transformers Animated Optimus Prime Gold Version has now arrived, complete with TakaraTomy dispatch case. A gallery of the figure will not be added to the website tonight, but if you are a fan of the site on Facebook (www.facebook.com/transformertoys) you can see a couple of preview images right now.
I can tell you that the toy, which was suppose to be limited to 1000 pieces is actually limited to 1104. In our last news update we announced that the figure is packed 12 to the case, well there were 92 sent out by TakaraTomy so where the other 1104 figures were suppose to end up is probably the missing link that explains why so many lucky draw figures appear to be made in larger quantities than their original prize draws intend.
More on this when the gallery is published.
