Movie Chronicles
Whilst we wait for the official release of the Transformers 2 trailer I thought it best to fill you in with some more toy images and videos.
A rather blurry Ravage toy:
Shortly after I posted the Chromia and Megatron video reviews Peaugh posted up three more constructicon reviews showcasing the Voyager class Mixmaster and Demolisher toys and Deluxe Rampage.
Mixmaster’s toy packaging features a bio and pictures of all three toy modes — alt, robot and battle.
Resident chemist and explosives expert for the élite among the Decepticons, Mixmaster has spent his entire life learning all there is to know about chemical interaction. He can make thousands of poisons, explosives, and deadly gasses from the materials around him. The other Decepticons rely on him to fashion powerful warheads for their missiles, and dangerous venoms in which to coat their blades.
Collider were snapping shots on the ShoWest convention floor, included in their round up are Transformers 2 concession cups featuring Bumblebee, Megatron, Optimus Prime and Starscream.
Racing across the dunes of the northern Sahara Desert, the roar of this engine echoing off the ever-shifting dunes, Autobot Ratchet charges toward the inevitable confrontation with Megatron and his assembled Decepticon army. Though he has battled against odds this bad in the past, no fight before has meant so much. He knows the fate of the universe rests on the outcome of this conflict, and he will do everything in his power to see to it that his allies come through it safe and victorious.
TF08 have posted some close up shots of TF2’s mechanized Jar Jar Binks buck toothed twins toys; Skids and Mudflaps.
Regular Transformers toy reviewer Peaugh is back with three more videos, this time for the Deluxe Chromia, Leader class Megatron and Scout class Dune Runner toys.
Whether Chromia combines with Arcee is still questionable, there are some extra unused parts included with Chromia which suggest the slight possibility.
The toy isn’t yet in the hands of reviewers and Transformers sleuths, but an appearances has been made on the side of another Toy’s box. The deluxe class toy features two weapons protruding from its rear back:
Four new Revenge of the Fallen robot replicas are now on eBay via seller gojulasprime23 with five days left on the auctions. This is our first look at The Fallen, Megatron, Sideswipe, Jetfire and Skids robot replica models.
After the Battle of Mission City, and the discovery of new Decepticons on Earth, Bumblebee decided to upgrade as many of his systems as he could. With the help of Autobot Ratchet, he added some human missile launchers to his arsenal, and modified his vehicle mode to make his weapons accessible. He was caught off-gaurd too many times the Decepticons. Now when they come around he’ll be ready.
Repaired and retrofitted after the Battle of Mission City, Barricade elected to remain on Earth while Starscream returned to Cybertron. He has devoted his time on Earth gathering intelligence for the inevitable rise of the Decepticons. He stalks and captures important humans, then scans, interrogates and disposes of his captives using the highly sensitive proves built into his vehicle mode.
According to Smokescreen, the only good Decepticon is a totally confused one. He does his best to make sure that the Decepticons never know what his teammates are up to. He’s perfected the art of creating diversions, using traps, holograms, and strategically placed explosives. When all else fails, he uses himself as bait, often racing right through a group of enemy robots to distract them.

Young but eager, Mudflap has wanted to be a full-fledged warrior under the command of Optimus Prime for as long as he can remember. He and his twin brother Autobot Skids traveled for years to Earth, just in the hopes of joining up with their idol. Being on Earth with Optimus Prime and the other heroes of the Great War is a dream come true.
