The Arker followed the update of Henkei Slingshot with a large gallery of a new Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Autobot. This new toy, which appears to be a Voyager class figure, is a transport plane and comes complete with a mini Optimus Prime figure.
The toy has similarities in the Transformation to Galaxy Force Dreadlock (Cybertron Jetfire).
Michael Bay has posted an interested post on his blog stating that he may look at Frank Welker to voice Soundwave for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
I think I'm going to pursue Frank on Soundwave.

Obviously this could actaully be one piece of disinformation regarding Transformers Revenge of the Fallen, a clever bit of marketing - as not only will this be picked up by Transformers fan sites, but various news summary and news websites will probably also report on this soon, or it could be true.
Bare in mind that for the most part of Transformers the Decepticon's spoke Cybertronian rather than any Earthern languages.
Seibertron.com report that "A journalist for the Australian paper- The Advertiser,
Sean Fewster tips us on a returning voice actor for the next movie that
completely refutes one Michael Bay's original statements about the
movie sequel.
One of Sean's co-workers at the paper, film writer Andrew Fenton interviewed actor Hugo Weaving:
"Mega Secret
By Andrew Fenton
Film Writer, The Advertiser
In town to promote his rather excellent new Aussie film, "Last Ride", Hugo Weaving let slip he'll be returning as the voice of Megatron in "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen".
Fans no doubt will recall that when we last saw Megatron, Sam (Shia
LaBeouf) had rammed the All Spark cube into his chest, thereby
destroying him. Despite this certain death, rumours have been
circulating the villain was going to make a comeback. Director Michael
Bay went so far as to flatly deny the rumour, telling Empire: "He's not
in the movie".
Turns out Bay was fibbing. "I've already done it," Weaving says, adding
Bay had told him to keep the news hush-hush. "He's over in LA and we
were working on the video split sort of thing and I had this strange
conversation where he seemed to imply it was all a big secret. So there
you go - I've given you the secret scoop."
So how is Megatron resurrected? Weaving is coy about revealling too much, but does give a tiny hint.
"I think in the last one, doesn't Optimus Prime pick up a little bit
of, a shard of the cube, or the thing that's left, and he takes it with
him. Maybe there's something there... but I don't know," he laughs.
We'll find out on June 25, the film's Australian release."
Thanks to two auctions on ebay, for Transformers Revenge of the Fallen leader class Optimus Prime and Megatron, as well as The Arker.com, more images of the two largest scale toy versions of the leaders from the second Transformers Movie are now available for all to see.
TF08.net has images of Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Robot Replica Starscream.
The figure is the non-transforming, poseable, supposedly more film accurate version of the Transformers Chararcter.
Yayabee has updated his photobucket account with images of the up coming Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Fallen toy.
The figure is a voyager class toy.
Both TFClub and TF08.net have been updated with more Transformers Revenge of the Fallen toys including:
The Arker has some images of Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Leader Class Megatron in packaging. The figure closely resembles that of the leaked image of Megatron from several months ago.
