Orion Pax is an optimistic Miner who sees the possibilities of a better future for all of Cybertron.  When Alpha Trion grants him a transformation cog, he finally has a fighting chance at changing Cybertron forever!  Check out my review and gallery of Cog Changer Optimus Prime/Orion Pax.

Optimus Prime is back (again) in the Generations line! This time he's a Deluxe Class figure based on the original 1984 toy!  Check out my review and gallery of Legacy United Optimus Prime.

During the Iacon 5000 many names appear on scoreboards and G1 and G2 fans will find them familiar.  I break down the "name cameos" in the film.  Check it out!

After yesterday's Hasbro 1027 broadcast (embedded below) Hasbro Pulse listed Studio Series 86 Bonecrusher and Scrapper for preorder at 1PM for Hasbro Pulse Premium members.  The preorders promptly sold out (but it is very likely they will put more in stock at some point).  Fortunately Ben's World of Transformers sponsor BigBadToyStore and affiliate site Entertainment Earth have also put their preorders up.  Check out the official product info from Hasbro Pulse and images below along with links to preorder your figures and support BWTF!
