These images and product descriptions are all via their web site and the @TF_Pr Twitter account. Check out these images and product description below (translated via Google Translate):
In this age of digital music, it is almost quaint to purchase any music on physical media. However many collectors dig having an album in a form they can hold in their hands and booklets they can go through as they listen to the music. Recognizing this, La La Records has posted orders for a limited edition run of the Bumblebee Movie Soundtrack. The soundtrack is limited to 2000 copies at a price of $19.98. You can check out the official product description and cover image below.
Back in the days of Generation 2, many figures were planned but never released. One of these was a Seeker jet known as Sandstorm (no, not that Sandstorm). Now Hasbro has finally made this figure a reality in Generations Selects! Check out my review and gallery of this blast from the past.
Hasbro is holding an online event on Friday, so fans knew some news was on the way this week and now it looks like we may have a clue as to at least one piece of news: the upcoming release of Generations Selects Artfire! Thanks to the folks at In Demand Toys we now have our first look at official photos of Artfire with his Targetmaster partner and Blast Effects!
SAN DIEGO, CA (May 18, 2021) – IDW’s sensational line of Transformers comic books will rule the summer… so proclaims King Grimlock!
A few days ago images were posted online of an upcoming sub-series of Transformers called the "Premium Finish" series. The series appears to focus on providing new and well, premium quality decos to mass release figures from the past. The first two figures shown were Siege Optimus Prime and Studio Series Bumblebee from the "Bumblebee" movie.
In a surprise move, Hasbro Pulse and Amazon have posted a pre-order listing for a Kingdom two pack featuring Maximal Grimlock and "Earth mode" Mirage! Grimlock is a retool and redeco of Kingdom Dinobot while Mirage is a redeco and retool of Siege Mirage (the changes are subtle, but they're there including the knees and shoulders). Pre-order now via this link to reserve your set and support BWTF! Here is the official press info from Hasbro on the two pack:
On April 27, 2021 PBS Newshour aired a segment about the emerging Cicada population in the United States. The segment "Cicada season: What to expect from the coming brood" is pretty standard fare at first (but fun if you are into nature). Towards the latter half of the segment, Chris Simon from the University of Connecticut presents some Cicada themed merchandise including Beast Wars Cicadacon! The aerial member of the Tripredacus team pops up around the 4:36 mark and Simon even explains he is a Transformers figure.
