The Huffington Post have posted a social media share onto their Google+ account where they share the 2nd interview that we, the Transformers At The Moon brothers, did with the Google Hangouts show Collectors Hangout.  Collectors Hangout now has around 600k followers on Google+ and despite a recent hiatus, is set to return with new episodes very shortly.

You can watch both of the episodes featuring ourselves below.

Episode 9

Episode 22

Thanks to a post on 78dm.net we can now share the first look at three of the Transformers 4 Age of Extinction Power Attackers (AKA Power Battlers) figures. The toys shown are Bumblebee, Hound (using his placeholder name of Duke) and Swoop (AKA Strafe under his alias of Paulie).  The toys confirm that Swoop / Strafe will have two heads in his animal form therefore suggesting that the "Dinobots" will be more like cybertronian beasts than based on Earth Dinosaurs. You can view the images below but please take care when visiting that thread on the 78dm.net website as it images that link to viruses.

The Takara-Tomy Mall and eHobby websites have both been updated with the first official "in-packaging" images of the Transformers CloudOptimus Prime and Megatron figures.  The toys are, of course, exclusive to the  Takara-Tomy Mall and eHobby, respectively. Both packages feature the same character art that has been shown before as well as Takara's version of the 30th Anniversary symbol.

TakaraTomy have pubilshed the first chapter of their "Guardians of Time" story which is being published under the Transformers Cloud banner.  The story is accompanied by an image showing the characters which, if you look close, appears to show Rodimus (Hot Rod) using the Springer Thrilling 30 mold which suggests that a repaint is on the way from TakaraTomy.  You will also spot Blaster, Jazz, SWindle, Soundwave and Thundercracker

ComicBookMovie.com have posted some scans from the Jan 2014 issue of Empire Magazine which show some new on-set images from Transformers: Age of Extinction. The images are from the Chinese shoot and feature Nicola Peltz being menaced by a green "prop claw", that will be replacec by a CGI render, the Autobots Drift and Crosshairs driving with Optimus Prime towards a destroyed vehicle, Jack Reynor and Mark Wahlberg appearing to have a conversation with the Bumblebee, who is in his retro mode, as well as some general cast and crew shots.

You can view the images after the jump along with the other Transformers 4 images.

TakaraTomy have posted two new images of their upcoming Transformers Go! G25 Leo Prime BLack Version. The figure is a black, white and green recolour of Leo Prime but with Kenzan's swords.  The figure will be released in December priced at 4200yen. You can view the images below.

The latest Transformers Go! episode has featured the debut the "new look" Optimus Prime quad-changer. Optimus EX Prime, as he is known, can change from a robot into a bullet train, a dragon and can combine with either Kenzan or Gekisoumaru. Within the episode he arrives back on Earth just in time to face off against the Predacon Oni leader, Great Dragotron. You can view soem images below that were captured by nakigao_san and posted on Twitter before being shared around by Planet Iacon.

The January 2014 issue of Empire Magazine contains a report from the Hong Kong set of Transformers 4 as well as a Transformers Age of Extinction themed cover which gives the world the first clear look at the CGI render for Optimus Prime's robot form.  As previously reported, the 4th live action Transformers film is said to be set for more meelay combat with the character designs taking on a medieval theme.

Cheshi.com has posted images of the GAC Trumpchi E-Jet concept car which shows the car with an Autobot symbol, as well as bullet  holes and scratches.  Could this be confirmation that the GAC Trumpchi E-Jet concept car　will be an Autobot, or does the insignia only appear so the general public recognise it as a Transformers related car?
