Just a quick reminder that three of our last four 2010 Unicron's are currently for sale on eBay with the auctions ending in 5 hours. You can find the auctions here, here and here starting at £110. The Unicron's are the Generation 1 coloured Unicron's that sold out when they were first released are are very difficult to find in stock within the UK.

On Wednesday, Jim Sorenson updated his blog, Disciples of Boltax, with another updated from the Ron Friedman auctions this time focusing on the ancillary materials that came with one of the main folders. "There were two cool folded-up posters, which I've done a quick job digitally putting back together, and a series of pages detailing why you should do business with Hasbro on this soon-to-be-huge franchise, as well as a list of existing licensees." explains Jim.

As part of our recent "rare toy" image gallery updates which have included Bumblebee Silver Version and Megatron Gold Version we thought it was time to turn back the block and bring you another image gallery update of one of our rarer figures from the 1990s. Generation 2 LazerCycle Soundwave. For those that don't know, Soundwave was due to be released as a recoloured LazerCycles Road pig along side Lazer Cycle Jazz but the G2 toyline was cancelled. No one is quite sure how many of these toys were produced, originally it was rumoured that there was only 15 of them, but that has since been disproved and it is generally considered that since carded versions were produced that a reasonable production run was actually made. That being said, these figures are still pretty difficult to track down, perhaps as they are not as sort-after as the Stunticons and Protectobots who are arguably the most sort after of the unreleased Generation Two items.

4Chan.org/toy have posted more Transformers Dark of the Moon toys including two from a Yahoo Japan auction for a boxed Optimus Prime and two of what appears to be a custom Brawn figure.
Over the last month DOTMToys has leaked around 40 images of the upcoming figures via variou websites including facebook, 4Chan, ACToys and his own forum. Below you will find most of the images leaked thus far as a handy round-up.

Update: Looking again at the Brawn figure it does look like a custom piece

Deaths Head returns .. in his original form .. in Transformers Dark of the Moon!!!! OK, maybe not. The popular Bounty Hunter is however making a return in the Panini UK Issue 33 of Marvel Heroes, where he takes on The Hulk.
Here's what Simon Furman has to say.
The original Death’s Head is back — in a special story that pits him against none other than the Incredible Hulk! Issue #33 of Panini UK‘s Marvel Heroes
comic features an amazing two-part clash between everyone’s favourite
bounty hunter (um, freelance peacekeeping agent) and the jade giant.
Part one is written by Ferg Handley and part two (the real head-to-head,
as it were) by me, with art by the amazing Simon Williams.
Marvel Heroes #33 is out (in the UK) on the 24th of March. Amazingly,
this marks my first work on the original Death’s Head since the early
90s, when he guest-starred in the likes of She-Hulk, Marvel Comics
Presents and Death’s Head. Don’t miss this special event and reserve
your copy now!
Hasbro have filed for 1 new Transformers related trademarks with the USPTO. You can view all of the details in our Transformers Trademark area which is updated constantly throughout the day by our dedicated news-bots, but here is the list of all of the new applications:
ON.cc

The Allspark has posted an image of the instructions for Transformers Reveal the Shield G2 Optimus Prime which shows off the alternative head which will be used on the recolour. whilst most fans expected a Scourge (RID Scourge, Car Robots Black Convoy) or Ultra Magnus (e-Hobby Exclusive Ultra Magnus), the head sculpt is a complete new one.
ACToys.net

Two auctions appeared earlier on eBay Australia for the Transformers Dark of the Moon Starscream and Crankcase / Dread figures. The auctions include two imags of the toys in robot mode, albeit mistransformed.

Ours thanks go out to gojira72 for letting us know that he just spotted all four Wave 1 Reveal The Shield deluxe figures on sale in an ASDA store in Harrogate, North Yorkshire priced at £10.97 each. As gojira72 himself asks "can anyone find the voyagers?"
