NASCAR x-over with Transformers – Optimus vs Megatron

This past Saturday, if you were watching NASCAR you probably saw two cars, 24’s Jeff Gord0n and 39’s Ryan Newman, with their car’s dected out Transformers style. Painted (or probaly stickered idk) on their hoods were Megatron (Gordon) and Optimus Prime (Newman). This took place at the 50th running NASCAR Banking 500 only from Bank of America at Lowe’s Motor Speedway.

To the left is Micheal Bay (duh).

Not only where their car’s detailed with Megatron and Optimus Prime so where the pit-crews.

The event was for the soon to be relased Revenge of the Fallen which I’ll be grabbing October 20th. (DVD or Blu-ray)

You can check the full article out on Tformers. And full gallery taken from the speedway.

Btw. No I don’t like NASCAR, but this was awesome.

Motomaster in Tennessee

Found this via twitter thanks to Sibertron {twitter}.

I always love when someone goes and makes a real life replucation of an Transformer. And while we most commonly see Autobot replucations every once in a while we’ll see a Decepticon one. I’m not much fan of the Decepticon Motormaster (the Stunticon leader) I have to say, the person who redid this truck did a pretty darn good job at it.

And I could have so gone seen him for my self. If I could hitch a ride or something. Tennesse isn’t that far away.

RotF Prop Auction

We all know that at some point in time sometimes items or props from our favorite movies or TV shows or other random shows or what knot have a nack for finding them selves in the hands of collectors and fans. . .or both. And since this blog is deticated mostly to Transformers, put two and two together. From Revenge of the Fallen, comes Profiles of History and their auction of Revenge items.

Such as Scrapel/The Doctor microscope: 

and even The Matrix of Leadership:

Btwl; shit like this isn’t fair for use poor folk. I want the ancient Prime’ heads and the hand props and the matrix of leadership!

Check it! here for more props/items up for auction…or in my case, window shopping ;__;

Incoming Universe!Hardhead

Hasbro, Takara and them companys incharge of our Transformer’s toy lines are, imo, natorious for making repaints of tf toys. Normally I don’t have a problem with this, and right now, I don’t now either. Repainted from Universe Onslaught, which I have yet to grab which, also, is shame on me because I’m a Combaticon/Bruticus fan and I like Onslaught. But anyway, yeah, introducing Universe Hardhead.

Check it! here for more images of U!Hardhead.

RotF Surpasses $400 Billion

For what reports are saying Revenge of the Fallen has surpassed the $400 billion mark this past Labor Day. With help from G.I.Joe ($140.9 million) and Star Trek ($257.2 million) it has helped get Paramount to the second highest spot studio during the summer box office seasons. Though Eddie Murphy’s most recent film, Imagine That, was a contributor to keeping Paramount down.

Who’s on first (cooks to anyone who get’s that) is Warner Bros this summer with just under $1 billion in box office ticket sales. Thanks to Harry Potter ($297.6 mill) and The Hangover ($272.2 mill).

Offcial Images of the ‘Ice Cream Truck’

Kinda hard to believe how long it’s been since we first saw those mysterious clips on youtube about the ‘ice cream truck’. Yet it wasn’t so long ago actually. Most people I’ve met or talked to/about said that the ice cream truck, now known as Mudflap and Skids from Revenge of the Fallen, is awesome and an offcial ‘want’. Don’t know why but I have to admit, I gotta get it myself just for the giggles.

Anyway, here’s a more fuller gallery for more images of the the twins thanks to Seibertron.

Wildman Back With 6 ‘Iconic’ Covers

Andrew Wildman, many of us know, worked on a good portion of Dreamwave’s Transformers series way back when. His first work in the our world of Transformers doing a couple for Marvel UK. Wildman hops in and out of the fandom occasionally doing works. And like so Wildman posted up on his Twitter not long ago that he has been comm-ished by IDW to do six cover’s, for what series or character’s he didn’t say. We’ll have to wait and see then? All he’s hinted at thus far is that the character’s for the cover’s will be ‘iconic’ ones.

Allspark Almanac Sneak Peak

Well, the first way I found out about it was via Derrick Wyatt’s Twitter. Which, if I remember just gave a preview of the cover for signings on his blog. But my memory sucks. Anyway. Jim Sorenson released on his blog, Disciples of Boltax a sneak peak into the Almanac. The book’s just give’s details about the characters and the shows of Transformers Animated that we possibably didn’t get while watching the show. It’s good for those fans who like that bit of extra detail.

Here’s two links on Sorenson’s blog regarding the Allspark Almanac if your interested.

Revealed RotF Covers

From weber_dubois22 who got it from Seibertron. It’s just been released so it’s still fresh. Go me. Here’s some look of what the TF RotF DVD box cover is going to look like. Not the only one I imagine. If they did like they did with the last there will be a few more other covers.

The first is a 2-disc special ed. with battle scared OP and the second is the regular. Like I said I bet they’ll release oen with a different cover(s).
