Jon Hartman has listed on TFWorld 2005 some new transfomers in the Walmart computers. You can see the list
here
The main listings to note are the 2005 Ford Mustang Fr (Alternators) and the Ultra sized Energon toys Overbite w/Buzzclaw, Longhaul/Hightower, Bonecrusher/Scavenger.
Remember that Hasbro originally stated the Alternators would be 5 moulds, each one recoloured. So far there are Subaru (Smokescreen, Silverstreak), Dodge (Sideswipe, Deadend), Corvette (Tracks), Jeap (Hound), Mazda (Meister). It would make the Ford one a 6th mould. However you can find pictures of the 2005 Ford Mustang (not the Transformer)
here,
here,
here and also
here. Note that the FR means Ford Racer.

AA Press release
AA2004 Discount Deadline / Weekend Update...
The 5% pre-booking deadline for Auto Assembly is now just 14 days away. After this time, bookings rise to the full price. Bookings are coming in at a healthy rate and we are well on track to beat last year"s total, especially now that we have confirmed the first ever voice actor to appear at an Auto Assembly event.
One thing we want to remind everyone is that Auto Assembly 2004 is much more than just a Transformer collectors fair - it is a full-blown convention with a range of activities running ALL weekend. We"ve got a charity auction running on Saturday with some great signed items from Transformers actors including David Kaye and original art from Lee Sullivan, and a guest panel with Simon Furman, Andrew Wildman and Lee Sullivan.
Sunday will see a Q&A session and talk from Transformers voice actor and AA guest of honour Wally Wingert and another talk from Simon Furman about his work on the new TF book from Dorling Kindersley, and some other surprise we are working on! Also, there will be a bonus programme of events on Saturday evening running until 11:00 pm which will feature another appearance from Wally and another of our guests! In addition to this, there will be other events specific to each day.
We know that is will cost more to attend for a full weekend, but with everything we have on offer this year, we think it will be well worth it, and with hotel accommodation in Birmingham starting at around £20 a night, it"s not too expensive to be here for the full weekend either!
If you need to know anything else, feel free to email us or use the Q&A threads on the
Auto Assembly or
TF@TM boards - we check these constantly throughout the day, seven days a week.
Looking forward to seeing you all there.
