Hello TF@The Moon,

Toys R Us no longer list Masterpiece Rodimus on their website. It seems odd, the toy was released only six months ago, and there are still plenty on shelves. Down here in Exeter, they've always had between 4 and 6 on the shelf - if anything, I would guess they are overstocked.

Perhaps people who were waiting for a price cut or online offer should act quickly to get one while they can!

Hasbro has annouced in the last hour that 2013 will see the release of Deaths Head in the Marvel Universe toyline.

This will be the first action figure based on Deaths Head who debuted in the Transformers comics back in the 80's as has crossed through mulitple lines such as Dr Who and the Marvel comic universe.

Only a CGI render was shown during a panel which allowed no photography.

Optibotimus has uploaded his latest video review which is none other than the upcoming Headrobots Centurion upgrade kit for G1 Fortress Maximus.

HK-TF.com have posted images of the free figure people will get when they go on Transformrt: The Ride when it opens in Singapore and then latter in Hollywood.  The toy, named Evac, can be viewed below.

The Weibo page of tktf has been updated with a new colour image of the Super Deformed Convoy (Optimus Prime) that was previously seen in December 2010. So far there is no information on who is producing the figure, though it still appears that the toy will transform.  Our bet is this could be a garage kit for Winter Wonderfestival, which takes place this month in Tokyo.

CMSCorp have updated their blog with another image of their upcoming 3rd Party Ginrai figure.  The toy is the Godmaster (Powermaster) of God Ginrai (Powermaster Optimus Prime) based on the likeness from the Japanese Generation One cartoon series Super God Masterforce.  You can view a mirror of the image below.
