More information has come to light regarding the Transformers Movie teaser trailer.
1) Michael Bay's blog now reports the teaser trailer is online, and give official confirmation of the Sector Seven website.
2) The Allspark are reporting that the Transformers Movie teaser trailer has broken the all-time download record for movie trailers, beating Spider-man 3
3) The Allspark have a report that Don Murphy has commented on the trailer, stating that "major, but subtle alterations have been made to the trailer". On the same report The Allspark have heard "In the coming days, I think the official TF site will post a trailer
with Peter Cullen's voice that was made/edited by a fan. Just to be
clear, the edit is not official." The change could well be the "voice over" which a few fans have said is missing - or something else entirely.
Don's Quote:
"You guys got a major, but subtle alteration made to the trailer ALREADY.
Chills and Cheers are Guaranteed.
Tomorrow morning on the Official Site.
Be there.
I will link to it as soon as I can."

Thanks to Sideways for posting this on our
message board this morning, following on from Moonbug's story earlier in the day.
Yahoo UK have put up the full UK trailer for the
Transformers Movie which you can find
here. Notice the lack of a release date on the actual trailer itself, with only July mentioned, even though the main page keeps to the 24th July UK release. So there is still hope that the UK release will be bought forward to be inline with many of the other European countries, though more likely the trailer will be re-used in most other countries.
Yahoo's US site will upload the US trailer later this evening.

Paul Cannon has updated the
Transforce 2007 website with an update on the Transforce 2007 convention. The update explains why things had been pretty quiet from them recently.
Unfortunately I have had to postpone Transforce 2007. This is mainly due to financial considerations. I hope very much to be able to announce a new date either late in 2007 or in early 2008.
I hope this does not cause too much inconvenience, and as always thank you all for your continued support.
Don't forget there is still Auto Assembly 2007!

Don Murphy has posted what he says will be his final post of 2006 on his
Message Board.
"Come gather ye Stooges and Hear a New Tale.
This will likely be the last posting of 2006. I am basically gonna miss
Christmas this year, since Susan and I are knee deep in WHILE SHE WAS
OUT, prepping in Vancouver for a February shoot. We hope to go right
from that into FACES OF DEATH, and then who knows what next year will
bring. (WE 3 ? Yes Please!) If it is a year like 2006, then please,
more, more!
SHOOT-EM-UP is now tentatively scheduled for September 7, 2007. The
film is amazing, exciting and funny as shit. Can't wait to show you the
new trailer.
The TRANSFORMERS trailer comes out December 20th online. I'm not going
to hype it. If it doesn't silence the haters, nothing will. The reality
is that this film comes out July 4th, 2007, and the producers and the
studio are already talking sequel. We know what we have is an exciting
and amazing summer blockbuster.
The Don Murphy Message Board was set up by a fan of mine to discuss my
movies. Soon, certainly by the new year, there will be a banner on top
of the page advising that Transformers discussion should be moved to
www.transformersmovie.com . I mean, you can post whatever you want
wherever you want I guessexcept there is no point anymore. The film is
shot. The first director's cut comes in next week. ILM is rendering the
film. We all think that the film kicks ass. But, no matter what you
post, it isn't changing. All the polls in the world no longer make a
difference. It seems to make more sense to discuss the movie on the
movie site.
I know that from the beginning of this board, I have done my utmost
best to make the fan base as happy as I possibly could. You guys
demanded Cullen and despite resistance from some quarters he is in
there. I feel Welker will hopefully come in there as well. There were
things you wanted that frankly made no sense in a live action movie.
And there were things I could not deliver, because I was only one voice
among many. I think the board served its purpose and along the way
created a community and for that I am most grateful.
I hope you'll all have a great Holiday Season and be good to one
another out there. Make the internet a little less hatefilled. Enjoy
movies that look good. Enjoy your families and take care, and hang
tight, Stooges, hang tight."

The Great Destroyer has kindly written up a full review of his original
S.T.A.R.S Base which can be found in our Transformers Toy Gallery section. The toy was one of the original Robot-Points Mail-Away Transformers items from the early/mid eighties, and it is exceptionally rare to find one nowadays.
