With Auto Assembly 2009 starting Friday evening here within the UK we thought we'd give you another incentive to come along if you have not already made up your mind. As you probably know by now at the event we will be showcasing our Lucky Draw collection the majority of which can be photographed for this website. However there are two Lucky Draw items that we own that we have not yet photographed for the website.
One of the items is the 2004 TV Magazine Colouring Contest figure Robotmaster G1 Convoy. The only images of this figure that have previously been seen were from a Yahoo Japan auction and a few images taken by Ultra Convoy who won that auction. Of the 10 figures that were produced, only Ultra Convoy's and our own are the only ones known to be in collectors hands.
The second item is even rarer and we believe only four photographs of this toy exist as well as a scan of the magazine from which it was originally offered. We have only seen this figure for sale once since it was produced. Who is the figure? None other than the second half of Black Super God Fire Convoy ... Black God Magnus!
We will not be publishing images of the toy on the internet until after Auto Assembly 2009, so if you want to see the figure you will have to come along to the event and have a look at the display. The figure will be shown on both days, but remember that only Sunday visitors will be able to see our entire Lucky Draw collection.
For full details on Auto Assembly 2009 and to book your tickets, visit the website at www.autoassembly.org.uk

On Tuesday we reported that
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen had moved into the top 10 grossing films within the US as predicted that it would rise higher this week. Well its already done just that having now grossed $380 million within the US and $795.3 million worldwide, This means that the film has Star Wars Episode III - Return of the Sith into 9th position in the
US domestic charts and has passed E.T into 22nd position in the
Worldwide charts. We expect the movie to move into 21st position in the worldwide charts within the next 24 hours and to take the 20th slot over the weekend when the total gross of the film we expect will reach a staggering $800 million. Stay right here at Transformers At The Moon as we will keep you up-to-date with the latest on the financial success of the second live action Transformers Movie

The Rusting Carcass Alcohol Abuse Center, boy that's a long name for a website, have published an interview they recently held with Bod Budiansky, the original writer on the Transformers comics for Marvel. Bob wrote all but two issues of the US strip from issue 5 until issue 55 as well as writing pretty much all of the text and stories on the packaging of the toys (including the tech-spec) for most of the toys that were released from late 1983 until 1989
