Next stop on @hasbro ‘s “The Apology Tour” #Transformers The Movie THE SOUNDTRACK: THE REFORMATTED EDITION! Is a reimagined soundtrack created in collaboration w/ record label Reigning Phoenix Music.

Releasing July 24, 2026 on major streaming platforms & physical formats including vinyl & cassette TFTM REFORMATTED EDITION soundtrack brings 10 re-recorded, reimagined tracks from the iconic film, where new production techniques meet the raw spirit of 1986 to create something that feels both reverent and revolutionary. This includes the return of Stan Bush—original voice that defined an era—now making his return 40 years later to bring fans brand-new recordings of “The Touch” and “Dare”! Every track has been rebuilt from the ground up: bigger, heavier, sharper, and more alive than ever. Guest singers are top level artists who not only pay tribute to the originals but also bring an unmeasurable amount of talent to these classic tracks.

Album performances led by ‘The Knights of Unicron’, a band of world-class musicians featuring Gus Rios, Matt Harvey and Ross Sewage, w/ additional guest appearances by rock/metal icon, former singer of Skid Row and solo artist, Sebastian Bach for a special rendition of “Nothin’s Gonna Stand in Our Way”, power metal artist Brittney Slayes (Unleash The Archers) for an electric version of “The Transformers (Theme)”, and other new exciting re-recordings from Mark Osegueda (Kerry King, Death Angel), Francesco Cavalieri (Wind Rose, V.B.O.), and Cold Slither’s own, Torch. Tying it all together is composer Vince Dicola as the perfect complement to this winning formula for the most honest and true collaboration for die-hard TRANSFORMERS fans!

To begin the album’s rollout, today, Hasbro has released the first Single and Music Video for Stan Bush’s re-recording of “The Touch!”

Thanks to the PR team for passing along the following info
Hasbro is kicking off Las Vegas Licensing Expo by unveiling an exciting wave of all-new Global Experiences inspired by MONOPOLY, TRANSFORMERS, MY LITTLE PONY and PEPPA PIG:

TRANSFORMERS Attraction (LATAM): Hasbro and Dream Cars Automóveis e Eventos are bringing the TRANSFORMERS universe to life like never before in Brazil. The country’s first fixed, immersive attraction, is set to open in late 2026 in Gramado, Rio Grande do Sul.

Gramado, May 2026 — Dream Cars Automóveis e Eventos, under license from Hasbro, a leading games, IP and toy company, announces the arrival of the first fixed TRANSFORMERS attraction in Brazil. Scheduled to open in Q4 2026, this new experience will bring the legacy of the TRANSFORMERS franchise to life in Latin America, inviting fans and families to immerse themselves in its rich storytelling, action, and heroism in an entirely new way.

Now, Brazilian audiences will have the opportunity to dive into this epic universe through a permanent attraction that combines immersive design, cutting-edge technology, and thematic environments.

New Vector Prime Incoming!

A glimpse of his relic the Blades of Time - can be seen in the new Sentinel Prime Artifact Pack stock photo. Note this is a NEW MOLD, not the same sword part that came w/ Legacy VP!

Sentinel Prime Artifact Pack Leak/Reveal

SP design based on his appearances in IDW comics, (Megatron Origins…). The figure is apparently a heavy retool of Tarn(?!). The figure comes with an ironically golden disc “conduit” that unites the artifacts of the Primes… !!!

KRANIX 2026 #Transformers Studio Series Deluxe

SPARE ME THIS MOCKERY OF JUSTICE!

Oh man, I dig this toy! It’s like Missing Link (is for my brother who absolutely adores the line) but made for me. Modern engineering, transform (perfect-) complexity and pose-ability. Then, there’s all those fluorescent pinks and angular multi-layered head sculpt and don’t get me started on the vehicle! … old school! straight out of Marvel comics Universe profile page. Pure 80’s nostalgia! 10/10 for me! Absolutely checks all the boxes. My #TransformersTheMovie display shelf is a happier for this addition!

Fun fact, according to the TFwiki,
“In a very early draft of The Transformers: The Movie, Lithone was a planet of living rock creatures, and Kranix was named Granix (from “granite”, you get it?). Although this was amended for later drafts, one or two instances of this original spelling made it through the spell-check, into a much later version of the script, puzzling fans for over a decade.”

The Original 13 Primes - together in glorious official figure form! #Transformers #AgeOfThePrimes

Their ranks are comprised of 1 Commander Class figure (Star OP), 3 Leader Class (Megatronus, Onyx, Liege), 5 Voyagers (Vector, Prima, Nexus, Amalgamous, Alpha Trion) and 4 Deluxes (Solus, Alchemist, Micronus & Quintus!) Very cool to see them all together!

Just got these two off-the-wall items in. Didn't even know they existed. Ride-ons are often a forgotten corner of the toy market, but over time, they become some of the rarest and hardest-to-hunt-down items. Their large size, almost exclusively outdoor life, and tendency to be tossed away after a few years cement their fate.

Famous examples include the many Power Wheels of the 1980s (each being a crown jewel in their respective collector communities), the infamous He-Man Bouncy Battle Cat, or the Transformers Jazz pedal car. Collectors will pay hundreds if not thousands for these items as each that passes, fewer become available for sale on the markets. Each discovery can spread across communities like a wildfire.

I myself have had my hand hovering over the "Buy it Now" button more than once on a few of these gems, only to hold off because of financial responsibilities (that's not to say I haven't made some hilariously irresponsible purchases in the past). One of the best days in my collecting career was hanging out with my friend Bill as he obtained his own Bouncy Battle Cat.

I got both of these through the Kohl's website and was surprised at how many licensed shirts and other items they had. I had a bunch of Kohl's Rewards built up due to a major buyout of their clearance section and decided to treat myself. These were some of the higher cost items; the Go-Kart was $99, while the motorcycle was $52. They are made by "Best Ride On Cars", a company I know nothing about, but can see following the age-old tradition of making a generic design and then replacing the decals as needed.

These will just sit around in their boxes as larger items like this I buy to just have in the collection and feel for they are better left as-is to keep them in mint condition (or as mint as the boxes allow, as they are cheap and arrived slightly damaged). Are these for everyone? Absolutely not. But for die-hards like me, I think you should nab them up. They won't be around forever, and down the road, these will be rare, at least I think they will.

LIEGE MAXIMO 2026 Age of the Primes Leader Class #Transformers @hasbro

According to the Covenant of Primus, Liege Maximo is the true villain of the Primes. His manipulations and deceit ultimately caused the fallout of the Primes following the defeat of Unicron. Whether he is in fact evil or simply acting out of boredom and circumstance depends on which author/story you’re drawing from.

This toy form is based heavily on his legendary first appearance at the conclusion of G2 Marvel Transformers comics by Simon Furman…. Transformation is fun, bot is pose-able and solid and creepy as he should be. That alien ship mode is brilliant- like a lesson in how to make a ship look evil!

I continue to enjoy the creativity, artistry and resources that have been brought into these legendary Original 13 Primes toys.

The virtual recreation series “Missing Link,” imagining what might have existed in that era.
Its 14th installment features the Cybertronian guard, “Ironhide”!

<Reservations start from May 13, 2026 (Wed)!>
■Missing Link C-14 Ironhide

Today we're going to cover a pretty niche topic within the world of Transformers, and more so the Beastformers (Battle Beasts) side of things. Our topic is the very obscure "Three Wise Ones" or "Godbeasts". These were shown in the "Hero Special 12: Laser Beasts" as well as a few other iterations throughout the Transformers history, but no one would blame you if you've never heard of them, their ties to the Beastformers, or even the Monsterbots!

What we are focusing on today are these three custom figures that use the godlike beast modes as detailed in the above Hero Special Mook (magazine/book). These toys imagine what we might have gotten had the original toyline continued into the next wave or so. They were early concepts created by "The Godbeast" aka Marty Hansen. An avid fan of Battle Beasts during the rise of the internet, he was also a talented artist and was known for his incredible customs in the collector community.

These figures were some of his best works and were very popular within the community. Today, they are incredibly rare and highly sought after; the original molds have long since broken, and they will never be made again. To many collectors, these might as well be official pieces as they are based on a concept that was put onto paper and then never made into reality.

The lion is a cold-cast hard resin, while the other two are a softer material that has some give. The weapons are made entirely from scratch and are incredibly fragile. As you can see, my staff for the beetle is broken and will need to be fixed. There are some minor flaws, like the arms not being exactly aligned, but the details in each beast far outweigh these minor issues. Each Godbeast is around 1.5 times the size of a regular Battle Beast (I've pictured the lion next to the shortest Beast, Hardtop tortoise). Each beast is transparent in nature and features two gems, one in their chest (representing their element, same as any beast) and one in their staff. These gems play heavily into their mythology.

Though I rarely talk about custom figures, sometimes they have a right to be put on a pedestal and have attention brought to them. These are near legendary in the world of Battle Beasts, and to have the chance to add a set to my private collection is a dream come true.

Until next time, I'll keep hunting down weird, fun, and off-the-wall items for you folks!

Note: for the first time, I've decided to use some editing tools (Gemini/Nano Banana 2) to edit/clean up these pictures. These are not AI-generated images; they are real photos that I took of my own items. They have been edited/cleaned up with the AI. I wanted a cleaner and nicer look and feel, and these perfectly capture what I want. This decision was made by me to create a better visual experience. If you have input on this, please feel free to message me on ToyRobot.
