To help announce that High Moon Studios and Activision Publishing would be stopping by Hasbro, Inc.'s Toy Fair 2012 Media Day on Saturday, the Official Transformers Facebook page has posted a piece of concept art of Bruticus from the Transformers Fall of Cybertron vidoe game. This is on the heels of the news that Hasbro would release the Combaticons that will form Bruticus as part of the limited toyline celebrating the video game, similar to what the company did for the 2010 Transformers War for Cybertron game. Fall of Cybertron is set for a Fall 2012 release. A quick reminder, Tformers and Radio Free Cybertron will be bringing you LIVE coverage beginning Saturday morning to talk about the latest previews and news coming out that day at Hasbro's Media Day. Be sure to stop by for the best coverage!

Continuing the countdown to Toy Fair 2012 (we will be there!), the official Transformers Facebook page has been posting looks at upcoming figures, with today's showing off Robots In Disguise Revealers (Deluxe) Arcee. The figures are named Revealers because each one features some sort of gimmick. This Arcee figure, like all of the Robots In Disguise mass release figures, is a completely different mold from the First Edition Arcee figure. Judging by the lone image, the mass release version has a more plain chest and what appears to be a streamlined design. Take a full look after the jump.

Takara Tomy has just released the United UN-26 Decepticon Aerial Espionage Thunderwing action figure in Japan and Asia and thanks to the TF Galaxy Group we have a bunch of images showing us how the Hasbro Generations Thunderwing action figure compares with the Takara Tomy edition.

Check out the differences between these two figures after the jump to share your comments.

Just in are many new in-hand looks at the Third Party upgrade kit for the Dr Wu DW-P03 Iron Will upgrade kit that is a new faceplate replacement for the or FansProject's City Commander. The images show us what the faceplates look like on the actual City Commander figure from many angles along with a look at the box / tin the upgrades will be packed in. Check out the images for more details on this kit after the jump and share your comments on the Dr Wu DW-P03 Iron Will faceplates.

Just in case you missed the Transformers: The Ride commercial during last night's Super Bowl XLVI (you have to take a bathroom break sometime), the official Transformers Youtube Channel has posted the 30-second spot that aired. The commercial pimps the 3D ride that is opening up in May at Universal Studios Hollywood.

"We are moving quickly to fix [the subtitle] errors and manufacture two replacement discs for your set and will ship them to you in about two weeks," the company wrote in an email sent to customers.

Transformers Bot Shots are a cool new way to play with Transformers. The miniature vehicles transform instantly into their robot alter egos on impact. Changing Optimus Prime from robot to vehicle takes just three easy steps, and the pieces click into place. As a truck, when Optimus runs into an obstacle, he will pop back into robot mode. Check out the video preview of the figure after the jump.

UPDATE: We have added a hi-res image of the Shockwave HISS Tank. Buried deep in the announcement of their upcoming GI Joe Retaliation toyline, Hasbro Inc reveals that they will be offering Shockwave HISS Tank as a San Diego Comic Con exclusive. Continuing the practice from last year when the company offered the extremely popular GI Joe Transformers Starscream Sky Striker and Cobra Commander, the company is offering the GI Joe Pursuit of Cobra HISS Tank with Shockwave's trademark purple color, complete with a large Decepticon insignia emblazoned on either side of the tank as well as the nose.

In one of the waves of the Transformers Prime Revealers (previously Deluxe) this year, a new, previously unknown character named Dead End will be released, according to a new (and now taken down) pre-order page from UK retailer Toyz and Gamez. This character has not yet been revealed on the show, which may explain why the pre-order is now gone. In addition to this pre-order page, other Revealers that went up and down several hours later include Airrachnid and Hot Shot. We learned of Airrachnid's impending release from a leaked Takara Tomy product sheet and Argos fully leaked Hot Shot late last month.

If I'm not mistaken, this is at least the second or third Decepticon Megatron's supposed to be terrified of, or at least wary. Let's see... Straxus/Darkmount and Thunderwing, too. Megatron's quite the worrier, it seems! Sky Shadow is about as obscure a figure as you're going to get in Generations: while Darkmount was based on a US comic character and Thunderwing a US-released toy with a lot of fiction behind it, Sky Shadow is from Transformers: Victory, a Japanese-only release. CONTINUE TO THE FULL REVIEW.

Thanks to Kapow Toys, we have learned that Hasbro will be releasing Shockwave, Jazz, and Optimus Prime as a tie into the Transformers Fall of Cybertron video game. This is similar to when Hasbro released select deluxe class figures based on the Transformers War for Cybertron designs under the Generations toyline a couple of years back. While Kapow does not list a specific series for these toys, another UK retailer Toyz and Gamez lists the figures under the Generations line. The figures are set for a May 2012 release, according to Kapow, ahead of the Fall of 2012 release date for the video game. We do not have images of the figures just yet, but we are expecting some first looks at the figures at Toy Fair 2012, where we will be reporting live on February 11th! Which figures do you want to see from the game? Let us know in the comments!

Thanks to BBTS who have posted a new product listing for the Kabaya Gum Plus Transformers Series 05 candy toys / gachaphon figures.

These guys come randomly packed 8 figures to a case for about $45 USD. Look for them to ship in spring of 2012.
