Megatron got a new head: After many complaint from the fans about the look of Megatron seen on some leaked concept arts, the movie makers decided to change the look of Megatron who, in the concept art seemed more like an alien from a manga than the old Megatron of the 80's. We still don't know which new look they decided to give Megatron, but we were assured that it wouldn't look like the leaked concept arts.

Participants could submit a line that they'd like Optimus Prime to speak in the live action Transformers Movie. Beginning this week, up to October 23rd, the fans can vote for their prefered line amongts the line that were submited earlier, the top ten line will be announced by November 9th.

Transformers inspired songs: Two songs, inspired by the Transformers were released this week by Vince DiCola, who also made some songs in the animated Transformers movie some years ago. The songs are very cool to listen and have an epic feel.
