Here you'll find an extremely long post by Nevermore covering Transformer trademarks, why certain names are altered when they are re-used, and various other tip-bits. It's an interesting read and once again leaves us pondering how Nevermore finds the time to research and write these things. Excellent stuff.
Remember you can keep up to date on the latest Transformer Trademarks on our unique
TF Trademark Page

Hasbro's Transformers website has been updated with a few 'interesting' questions for Vector Prime. They include:-
Q: Can Leobreaker combine with Optimus Prime?
A: Yes, and their combination forms the Savage Claw mode. It is truly a sight to behold!
Q: Do mini-cons have cyber planet keys?
A: No, but in some cases they can act like cyber planet keys and unlock powers of greater Transformers.
Q: Will Transformers Cybertron air in Australia?
A: Yes, in time, our story will be told all over this planet you call Earth.
Q: Is the cut on Starscream permanent?
A: No it is not. In time, the self-repair systems we all have in our Cybertronian bodies will heal it.
Q: What is Backstop's cyber key power?
A: It activates his ramming robot-arm - watch out!
Q: Do you love dragons?
A: Dragons!? Like Scourge? By Primus no! If all dragons are as ill-tempered as the fiery leader of the jungle planet, I would not like to meet any of them!
Q: Can you boogie down?
A: When I was a younger Transformer, I was able to participate in many more activities. We once had a mini-con that transformed into a disco ball, but that was a long time ago.

Part One Ltd have updated
E-Hobby Shop with the re-issue of Pepsi Promotional Convoy.
Very rough translation of text:
In American in 1985 there was a campaign, run by Pepsi-Cola, where you would win a Convoy (Optimus Prime) with a Pepsi-Cola logo pasted onto the trailer.
Now this toy makes a revival, with a new modern style based on an actually vehicle (probably a Pepsi Tanker).
You can actually load a Pepsi-Cola bottle onto the trailer, for display. Convoy has also been re-coloured in the Pepsi-Cola 2 colour colour scheme
