In a post on his message board,
Don Murpy updated eveyone on the progress of the filming of the
Transformers Movie Today is the last day of main unit shooting. In two hours we'll
break for lunch. Then blow up more S#!% in downtown LA. Next week a
reduced unit with very few actors will head to different cities and
pick up some establishing shots. Then some of the team will head to the
Frozen North. The film is basically done today boys and girls. And by
done I mean filming. If ever there was a film that was really going to
be made in post production, this is it. Much editing and many effects
to go. How do I feel? There is a promo reel that has been put together
for exhibitors and retailers that is mind boggling. There is a trailer
being put together for later this year that should blow your mind. I'm
feeling pretty good that we've made a film that you will like. Only
time will tell.The trailer will no doubt debut on YouTube, via a leak, before appearing on
www.transformersmovie.com

The
Japanese Trademark Website has been updated with more images, include Transformers Classics and some
rather special other Transforming toys, a Camera, Phone and handheld Game Console. The list of new entries are as follows:
1282191 Handheld Console robot
1282190 Camera robot
1282189 Classics Megatron (tank)
1282188 Phone robot
1282173 Classics Rodimus
1282172 Classics Megatron
1282168 Classics Grimlock
1282156 Classics Bumblebee
The three items which catch the eye are the Console, Camera and Mobile Phone (Cell Phone) transforming robots. Are these Transformers or from another TakaraTomy line? Microman hasn't had Transforming robots for a few years, so there are strong possibilities these could be Transformers.
Some sites are already guessing these are toys connected to next years
Transformers Movie. Others feel they are more of the Transformers Classics line. The truth is we don't know yet, but with BotCon around the corner expect questions to be thrown at Hasbro as to the identity of these toys.
One thing we can confirm is that these toys have an International Trademark.
You can see 36 images of the toys on our message board
