TFClub has posted the final images for its TFC-005 Gear of War 2 accessory set.

What we can now see in detail is the movie style add-on set, which combines with the regular size rifle to create movie style rifle, and can also be used as a backpack rocket launcher (or gatling gun) with its LED shining through Classics/Henkei Optimus' lightpiping!

Revenge of the Fallen Scout Class Slap Dash, Trenchmouth, Beachcomber & Deadlift Package Shots

TM2 D-bot — Sat, 7 Nov 2009 06:17:52

The Arker has given us package shots for the new Revenge of the Fallen Scout Class repaint wave. We finally can put names to the figures and see that they will be offered in Autobot vs Decepticon NEST Global Alliance two packs. Combined bio for the Slap Dash vs Trenchmouth "Windy City Chase" set:

Everything Slap Dash does, he does in a hurry. Not because he's fast - though he is - but more because he's lazy. Careful planning just isn't his thing. Unfortunately, Trenchmouth is not the sort of Decepticon you want to fight without some foresight. He may be a filthy, poorly tuned road hog, but he's also a smart, canny fighter.

and Beachcomber vs Deadlift's "Road Rival Showdown":

There was a time when neither Beachcomber nor Deadlift were interested in warfare. Beachcomber spent his time exploring the barren wilderness of remote planets, while Deadlift enjoyed the function of transporting deactivated Decepticons to the smelting pools for repurposing. Now, however, the war has drawn both of them into its grip, and the two find themselves in a close-quarters fight to the finish.

New Transformers Iniative for the Hasbro Channel "Hunt for the Decepticons"

Sol Fury — Fri, 6 Nov 2009 07:28:44

At Hasbro's Investor Day in Rhode Island, some new details have emerged for a new Transformers based initiative on their new television channel following the start of Hasbro's joint venture with Discovery. The new initiative will be called "Hunt for the Decepticons". Hasbro also announced that Transformers and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman will be working on content for the new network, and although they did not connect their names with the Transformers project, it seems likely.
