The renders used on the Lunchables website are availalbe in extremely hi-res on Coopermine's Lunarpage account
here.
UPDATE: We have now mirrored the images in our
Official Transformers Movie images area (which includes only those images officially released and not leaker). We've uploaded the files in jpg format, on white backgrounds, making the files 1/3 their original file-size, but keeping the resolution and clarity.

Many many thanks to Duck Star for submitting the following news story. It's an interesting video, if if just for the mispronuciation of Tomy (pronounced "toe-me" not "tom-me" - lol), and the misinformation that "Takara-Tomy is a new brand from Nike :-)
Hi there Weird bit of news that I don't think anyone would have seen unless you are a school child or a teacher.
Some Schools have this thing called Espresso in school, its got video clips and a weekly news show. I was watching it with my class yesterday and was amazed to see the Tomy Transforming trainers on screen. They had images of a girl transforming megatron.
Not sure if its news, but it is interesting. I've uploaded the clip to youtube, as only school can see it normally. Cool to Transformers being shown to kids. Check it out.

Thanks

ebay seller SPX posted an auction which ended earlier of a test shot of what is believed to be a BotCon 2007 exclusive Alphatrion. The auction ended for just over $200 (including shipping) and contained some more images which you can see
here.

We've had a few emails recently asking if we'd like images to try and complete our
Transformers toy image area of the site. The answer, of cause, is yes please, though there are only certain toys which we need images off.
If you keep an eye on this
thread on our
Transformers Forum, I'll update the listing of which toys we require pictures off. The images bust be taken by yourself, and not from another website. Those we use will appear on Version 8 of Transformers At The Moon, currently in development, and you will be given credit on each of the galleries.

Many thanks to Sidekicker for confirming that the Transformers Classics two pack of Skywarp and Ultra Magnus is now out in the UK!
The classics Magnus and Skywarp 2-pack has been listed on the Woolworths site for months as unavailable but I checked on wednesday and it was in stock at just £14.99. I ordered it and picked it up from the Woolworths in Bradford yesterday. Bargain! I'm guessing this means it will be hitting shelves soon, possible as a Woolworths exclusive.

Simon Furman has
posted an article on his blog concerning the Comic which will come with MadMan Entertainments Transformers G1 cartoon series (complete box set). The comic attempts to bridge the gap between the second series of the cartoon show and the original Transformers The Movie.
Another Transformers script done and dusted, another tease/trailer for what's to come (note: this is largely spoiler-free, so don't expect anything too revelatory). Something a bit different this time out, an 8-page story (for an exclusive mini-comic) set firmly in the TV cartoon/animated movie continuity (somewhere between the end of animated series 2 and the movie itself).
This, as has been reported elsewhere, is part of the bonus extras in Madman's upcoming (Australian) DVD release of the entire animated series in one special edition package. Really can't go into any detail on the story, except to say that it attempts to bridge the gap between TV show and (animated) movie, show the current state of play on both Earth and Cybertron, and foreshadow a defining event in the movie itself (yeah, I know, in 8-pages!)!
Art on this one-off comic story is by the one and only Nick Roche, whose involvement may just give you a hint about one or maybe even two of the featured characters! I shall say no more (unless you're at the Bristol convention on Saturday week and ply me with beer).
