Website Updates For a few years now Hasbro and General Motors have had a working relationship, seen in the form of the Transformers: Alternators line. Now the GM Vice President, Mike Jackson, speaks out about why GM feels that Transformers is helping to give their brand a global attraction.

"'Transformers' is a compelling project and offers us a global platform for marketing GM products and building our brands," said Mike Jackson, GM North America vice president, marketing and advertising. "It represents the perfect intersection of entertainment, marketing and design."

ComingSoon.net have an short article covering the relationship between the two companies, which although doesn't relay anything new, it's an interesting little read.

Website UpdatesTFAuctions have finally announced their co-operative competition with Hasbro UK. The competition gives you the chance to design a re-colour of one of the existing Alternator Transformers!

As one of the selected sites, we shall be uploading our images later this afternoon (around 13:30 GMT). Here are the details


"Competition time again, this time Hasbro.co.uk and TFAuctions.com have teamed up with a host of sites to bring some interest back to the Alternators range (not that it's needed).

TFwire.com, Allspark.com, Transformers @ The Moon.co.uk and TFormers.com have all joined in on this great competition and are giving it their full backing, our thanks go out to the guys on all sites for their time and interest in this comp.

This competition is split up into four sections, each of the four websites have been given 3 blank Alternator images to host from their site. All you have to do is go to your desired site copy or download your chosen image or images and re-colour them in anyway you feel fit. This is an open contest so anyone can enter, you can use anything you wish to re-colour them and also enter as many times as you like. Note: *Please allow each website involved 24 hours to upload their images.*

Once you have coloured your images send them to comp@tfauctions.com along with your name and age. We will then pass all entries on to Hasbro who will make a decision, we will then announce the winner on December 23rd 2006.

Maybe Hasbro are looking for ideas for the Alternators line to revamp it? Maybe you have an idea that might swing them, or maybe if this competition shows good interest they will decide to continue one of the best lines to date?


There will be 1 winner and 2 runners up. The winning entry will receive a mystery box filled with all manner of Hasbro goodness. The 2 runners up will each receive some smaller random Hasbro items.

The winning site will also receive a little present as well so support your site and start colouring today!

All the entries will be shown on our sister site www.cougarhq.com after December 23rd 2006.

Thanks to Tyler for the hook up with the images.

Enjoy the comp.
