KOToys.com have posted the first images of the torso of their upcoming black and gold Seeker, Death Starscream.  The toy will be based on thee-Hobby black and gold Starscream figure from the Collectors Edition line.  You can view two images below of the torso of the figure.   They had two optons and have decided to go for the option on the right with the black band around the waste to break up the gold.

­Former MB and Hasbro employee Andy Couzens has placed some more pre-production Transformers items for sale on eBay.  His current auctions are for a pre-production Freeway and an Action Master Soundwave EP.

­

The Freeway is an EP for the European Classics release of the figure which was remoulded to have the indent removed where the rub-sign use to be.  On the final release of the figure, which you can view within our toy gallery section of the website, you will notice that an Autobot sticker was put in place of the early rub-sign.

An auction has appeared on ebay.co.uk for the three ­Japane­se Dinosaur Cassettes.  Though that is special enough, the seller has listed them for 99p for all four!!

The auctions are for Dial, Gurafi,  Noise, and Saur

Truly a potential Transformers bargain.

Thanks to TF_TF for the corrections

TFC showed off many of their upcoming products at a Chinese fair recently.  The images include a new look at the previously entitled "Not ...." series who's names and head sculpts have been changed to protect the manufactures from lawsuits and to allow them to sell the toys back in Japan again.

You can find a collection of photographs from the event below thanks to Weibo.com user Tekman.  The images mirrored from Chinese site TF-Club.

If you are within the UK or Europe and you look out of your window right now you will probably notice that its bright and sunny outside.  As such that can only mean one thing .... the continuation of our Spring / Summer Special of updates.

Following on from our last set of updates, the paint-samples of two of the Brainmasters, it is with great pleasure that I bring to you today another piece of European history, a FEP (Final Engineering Pilot) of Transformers Generation One Classics Sandstorm.  The image gallery contains comparisons with both the original release of the figure as well as the final gold box "classics" version (which had the black plastic feet that were painted and different colour stickers).  The early testshot Sandstorm is made from a milky white plastic and was purchased from the former head of Hasbro Europe.

Enjoy!
