The first 9 toys have been shipped today, leaving 18 left to go out. I am due to bring more boxes back from work this week, but due to work (as I was in the US for two weeks), I'm having to work late on Thursday, and have College Tues / Wed, so the next batch won't be going out until Saturday.

Jon Voight told SCI FI Wire that although nothing is finalized, it looks
likely that he'll be joining the cast of the new Transformers Movie. Voight is quoted as saying "I'm playing this ... well, we haven't signed the papers yet .... But it looks like I'm going to play the
Secretary of State.".
He is also quoted as saying "Well, of course, this one is going to have a lot of special effects, a
lot of computer graphics and stuff like that, so it seems," Voight
said. "So the actors will be tested. Their patience will be tested with
lots of different things. But it's going to be interesting, too. When
you do something like thatwhen you do a lot of computer graphics in a
movie, lots of technical stuffit's quite intriguing. It's a lot of
fun, you know? It brings you back to your childhood, and you want to
see how things work."

We have added out latest Toy Gallery to Transformers @ The Moon, and he is yet another rare Japanese Lucky Draw toy. This time he is the TV Magazine Lucky Draw Gold Magmatron that was given away in a prize draw back in 1999. That draw was probably limited to 1 or 2 pieces of the Gold Magmatron's and was the same prize draw that saw the Black Magatron and Blue Big Convoy toys. The gallery is a world first, and takes the number of full size images just within our Toy Gallery section even closer to the 16,000 mark, probably the most for any Transformers fan site.

TFWorld 2005 have some blurry scans of Transformers: Classic Optiumus Prime and Megatron toys. Prime is a truck and Megatron a gun. The images are curtisy of Action HQ, but keep in mind that Megatron can't be a realistic gun due to US safety laws.

Every once in a while a website reports something new and unique, and Seibertron did is a week ago and TFormers picked up on it today. They link to a story regarding Misformers, an artform by Scott Campbell, which consists of taking Transformer toys apart, and putting them back together in odd and wonderous ways.

Just an update on the Twincast orders. I've arrived back in the 3 hours ago, and will start to package the items up this afternoon, through tomorrow and into Sunday (there'a a lot to do). There are still 9 people who ordered who we've not heard from, so please get in touch. We'll be sending out chasers over the next few days as well - I just need to re-adjust to the timezone first.

Auto Assembly: Target 2006, the UK Transformers convention taking place on Saturday 3rd of June in Birmingham, England has now set the FINAL cut-off date for pre-registrations for all bookings from fans within the UK wishing to attend the convention. Please read this carefully as there are two dates depending on how you intend to pay and there are final details of how on-the-door places will be announced should any be available...
First, if you intend to book via post and pay by cheque then you will need to get your booking to us by Saturday 20th May 2006 AT THE LATEST to guarantee your place at the convention. This will allow us plenty of time to present your cheque to the bank, for it to clear and for us to make sure that your booking confirmations and information packs are shipped to you in time for the convention! If you are paying by postal order or cash (and we must stress that cash is sent at your own risk), then this deadline is extended to Saturday 27th May 2006.
If you are booking online and paying by PayPal, then the FINAL deadline is Saturday 27th May 2006. As payments are processed immediately, we will be able to ship your confirmation slips by Tuesday 30th May 2006 first class so they will reach you by Thursday 1st June 2006 at the latest.
Please note that we can not guarantee to process bookings after these deadlines or dispatch confirmation slips in time for the event, especially with the bank holiday at the end of May, so you may be disappointed or not receive your slips in time.
With regards to on-the-door places, we will post details on the Auto Assembly website, forum and issue details through all major Transformers websites as to the number of on-the-door places available on Saturday 27th April 2006 should there be any. However, these will be on a first-come, first-served basis so we would advise that you arrive at the convention early to ensure your best chance of admission to the convention. If in doubt, pre-register.
Auto Assembly: Target 2006 is now FIVE WEEKS away... there are no other Transformers conventions planned for the UK for 2006 so this is your only chance to attend an event this year unless you are planning on travelling overseas. We are still in talks to bring further guests to the convention in addition to the NINE already confirmed and we hope to have more activities to announce shortly, not to mention the now infamous goodie bag that all attendees will receive full of free gifts!
As there are now only three weeks before the postal bookings cut-off, please ensure that you send your bookings to us NOW to avoid disappointment!
Simon and Sven,
Auto Assembly: Target 2006
