Megatron Torso - in the same manor as the Starscream torso, this wallpaper shows a huge version of the upper body of the Decepticon leader from Transformers Animated.
Faces - A quick montage of various faces from the Transformers Animated show.

Whilst out doing some final Christmas shopping I noticed that Woolworths aer now stocking the Transformers Movie Real Gear Nigh Beat 7 toy, the blue recolour of Booster-X.

The first wave of the Real Gear Transformers toys didn't come out by us, so I was pleasently surprised to see one of the later figures make it across.

Woolworths also stock the Legends of Cybertron Transformers Movie toys, having a bucket of them. The only problem is they are all LOC Megatrons!

Chris Ryall has posted the cover art for the upcoming Arcee Spotlight over on the IDW messag boards.

Thanks to Seibertron.com for pointing out another Transformers Movie Scout toy auction on Taobao, this time for Storm Surge, a repaint of the Transformers Cybertron Shortround

TRANSFORMERS® Movie Scout: STORM SURGEâ„¢
STORM SURGE is so named because of his all-encompassing approach to combat. Allies and opponents alike rarely leave a fight in which he is involved without being soaked in corrosive salt acid, or bathed in jellied gasoline. During fights at sea, the water around him erupts constantly into geysers as his depth charges roll indiscriminately into the ocean. On land, he sprays the area around him with emitters housed on his arms, figuring that the more destructive power he puts out, the more likely it is he’ll take out his AUTOBOT® enemies.

A new Transformers Animated video clip was shown during the Cartoon Network podcast and as you could expect it has found its way onto youTube. You can view the video in our Video section, or by using the embedded player below.

Asian auction site TaoBao is featuring a new auction for a Target Exclusive Transformers Movie Basic Crosshairs toy, this time showing the bio of the character.

Armorer and Weapons Master for the Autobots, Crosshairs is used to dealing with some of the most dangerous technology in the galaxy. Long use has taught him to be painstakingly methodical, but has also caused him to be so entrenched in his systematic organizational methods that no other Autobot could hope to find anything in the vast armory on Cybertron. Crosshairs is so careful that he will not issue a weapon unless the requester fills out forms detailing--in triplecate--his need.

Thanks to TFW2005 for pointing it out!
