Yep. They've taken some liberties.  Elita 1 has some cool moves.

Much more interested in seeing Arrival From Cybertron on the big screen.

Not entirely sure, but would not be 100% surprised if the Transformers Movie was the first cinema film I ever saw.

Imagine seeing those first few episodes of the TV show on a massive Cinema screen. Not sure how the table read element will work.

Just wanted to come on here to say that the new Transformer's ONE movie trailer is the biggest pile of steaming shit imaginable and I hate it. 

Have a nice weekend everyone. 
 

 

It started looking interesting, then suddenly takes this huge shift to bad jokes and I lost all interest.

Spot on. 

"BAD-ASS-ATRON"

Megatron, a man destined to become a ruthless dictator and crime lord, who will happily enslave or eradicate an entire race to satisfy his people's need for energy "We'll call you B!"

I thought it looked fun. Glad they're doing something different with it. Might get in some new fans.

I mean, I've got my perfect movie already - it came out when I was seven. And with Lost Light and the like, I think there's the potential for a Transformers movie that's absolutely aimed towards me. But this one doesn't have to be.

This has been recently announced. There's a Theatre mode.That allows this and the Robosen Prime to interact. The two of them will act out that classic scene from TFTM.

This is the third of these expensive but very impressive animatronic figures. Prime, Grimlock, and now Megatron.

There's a Bumblebee as well but it doesn't transform.

Yes. He just walks around and does a dance.

Can you help a brother out?

I just saw swoop being the final dinobot to come out in the 86 range. 

I would really like the set. However Grimlock is now £££££££££££ is there any other make that would fit in with the rest? or am i waiting to see if they reissue?

I think there's going to be a cartoon accurate paint job reissue later in the year.

As great as this looks, my local cinemas all look deserted when it comes to the screenings. I'm tempted to splash out and go to the EveryMan just for the amusement of doing so more-or-less by myself.

I'll probably go at the weekend.

So far, the turn out here in Nottingham consists of me.
