Transformer World 2005 - TFW2005.COM (original) (raw)
Transformers One is hitting theaters this weekend, and to celebrate Hasbro sent out a new promotional mailer featuring a wide array of products on shelves now (or will be soon). Most of it is the kids focused line items, but we did get a look at Studio Series 114 Transformers One Megatron. The box itself is super sharp, playing on the crates seen on the train scene in the trailer and movie. Inside also has a topper featuring the Matrix of Leadership and the Transformers One logo. All of this has a reflective glossy finish so it pops differently depending on how light hits it.
In addition, we’ve included shots of the previous promotional boxes we’ve received over the years going back to 2007’s TF1 at the end! Thanks again to Hasbro for sending this through, check out the shots of the box, contents and a couple half fancies for SS Prime and Megatron after the break!
The official Blokees Instagram account have shared our first official images of their new Blokees Transformers Classic Class Transformers One Sentinel Prime & Elita-1.
Blokees Classic Class are easy-to-build model kits, featuring more parts and LED lights compared to the Blokees Galaxy Version kits. We have images of Elita-1 and Sentinel Prime in his two forms. It isn’t clear if there will be two Sentinel Prime figures or a single release with extra armor parts. They have also teased TFOne Optimus Prime and Megatron.
