Transformers: Dark Of The Moon Soundtrack Campaign - Paramor

The promotional campaign for the Transformers: Dark of the Moon The Album is just as big as for the movie (Well, maybe not that big…. But you get the point). So, if you have subscribed to the newsletter of Transformers 3 Music Website, you may have even gotten an e-mail by now.

Linkin Park announced that they are holding an Artwork Competition. There are plenty of creative folks here at TFW2005. Guys, this is for you. Read the rules and regulations and if you qualify, you may become the lucky winner to have the poster you designed be seen at the Transformers: Dark of the Moon World Premiere at Moscow. Also, you can have a private video chat with the band as well as getting the poster you designed signed by the band. Brief video, after the jump.

Paramore teased us today with a little taste of their upcoming song for the third movie. The song is titled “Monster” and will be available with the TF3 Soundtrack CD.


And in other news, there is a video of Dave from Linkin Park who traveled to Haiti to see firsthand how the United Nations is helping Haiti rebuild, fifteen months after a major earthquake. If you listen from the beginning of the video to the 2:25 mark, you’ll hear the Iridescent Piano Theme which is rumored be featured on the Transformers 3 The Score. Continue on to take a look at the video.

Some are speculating this might have been a "surprise guest" at this year's BotCon convention, happening next weekend in Pasadena, California. If that was the case, the surprise guest has spoiled the surprise!

Steve Blum, known most recently to Transformers fans as the voice of Starscream in the Emmy-nominated Transformers Prime series, announced in an interview with AFTimes that he will be attending the annual Transformers convention next weekend.

How big is Steve Blum in the voice-acting world of Transformers? Well, for ROBOTS IN DISGUISE fans, he voiced Dark Scream and W.A.R.S.. For those of you in to video games, Barricade and Shockwave were his from Transformers: War for Cybertron. He may have also played characters like Wolverine in Wolverline and the X-Men and Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and, well, pretty much any video game produced in the last 10 years.

He also revealed that he, and the other voice actors, will be reading an episode script from Transformers: Prime.

This brings the total number of BotCon guests to 1,504,642. Join in the discussion!

Third Party Transformers News Roundup
 
Originally posted by: Sol Fury @ TFW2005.com

There's been a decent amount of buzz on the third party custom Transformers scene over the last couple of days, with a couple of new kits and add-ons announced. While nothing truly groundbreaking has popped up, these might be of interest to some of you guys:

First up, a pair of upcoming releases from CrazyDevy. Their CDMW-22 and CDMW-23 have both been revealed over the weekend. CDMW-22 is an upgrade for Generation 1 Menasor - it's a new head. Does it work for you? It's pictured at left - check it out. Discuss it on our 2005 Boards here.

The second CrazyDevy release is CDMW-23, a Predaking upgrade. This one is something you might have been waiting for - fully articulated hands with adjustable knuckledusters. It looks pretty awesome, though it is pricey as is the way with CrazyDevy items. Link to discussion thread.

Next up is Studio Beezleboss' next release. You may remember them for the Devil Horns Cliffjumper upgrade set, now they're back with a yellow version of the kit matched for Bumblebee. The head is yellow, allowing you to have your yellow Cliffjumper homage, and he comes with black versions of the guns. Discuss it on our 2005 Boards here.

Finally not a new reveal but there are also some in-package images of the Captured Prey exclusive Master Shooter Megagun and Brown King. Sidecutter of Captured Prey also reports that these are in hand and will be released at Botcon 2011 in Pasadena CA - so if you are curious, be sure to head on over to the Captured Prey booth and check these out for yourself at Botcon! Discuss it on our 2005 Boards here.

Cheetor will also be available at Botcon 2011 as he did not sell out completely on preorders. As a perfect accompaniment to this year's boxed set I'm sure he'll sell out fast though.

No, we're not talking about Sideswipe - though goodness knows that would be very nice - what we are talking about is the next run of EZ Series toys to be released. A set of six are coming, according to Snakas, using the Revenge of the Fallen Legends Class toys (and Movie 1 Ratchet). The decos are slightly more real world and make use of metallic finishes according to the solicitation which was initially posted by Snakas. The official name of the set appears to be "EZ Collection Real".

We've got one more gallery update for you before Botcon 2011 kicks off - and in the spirit of the event, it's a Transformers Animated themed update! You undoubtedly saw earlier that Marcelo will have a print of the Starscream clone army available at Botcon - well here for your enjoyment are toys of two of the clones. These guys were only released in Japan through a Family Mart lottery draw, so they are very rare, especially Ramjet who was a mail away prize in exchange for non-winning tickets.

First up is Animated Activators Skywarp, the "C" Prize of the Family Mart prize draw. Bizarrely he's got a purple head in this iteration, although it does suit him and nicely break up all that black. He's a fun deco, and with the Activators of Starscream and Thundercracker, he rounds out the trio of the original Seekers in at least one size class for Animated.

Next up is Animated Activators Ramjet. Ramjet was the "second chance" prize, redeemable by sending in tickets for the lowest ranked items in the prize draw. This makes him the hardest of the Activators Seekers to get hold of, even harder than Dirge, but take a look at the gallery and you'll see he is well worth it.

Give mad props to 2005 Boards Photo Staff member SydneyY for bringing you these two galleries of awesome rare Animated goodness - and be sure to join us after Botcon for even more Animated goodness, when we share with you pictures of the convention exclusive toys in all their glory.

Transformers: Dark Of The Moon Farrari 458 Italia Autobot Ma
 
Originally posted by: NIBMRatchet @ TFW2005.com

For many months that came after the big reveal of Ferrari 458 Italia being an Autobot on Transformers 3, fans debated the identity of the bot. Fan favorite name was Hot Rod.

But during the Chicago filming a name came up… Rush. The name alone was enough to stir up the hornets’ nest. This was quickly subdued by Nelson, mentioning that the car was parked on Rush Street. Today, thanks to Nelson… we foundout that the script actually had referred the Ferrari as Rush during the early stages of filming (a pet name like Wheelbot and Skipjack who turned out to be Scavenger/Demolishor and Rampage respectively).

And then… when Hasbro revealed their upcoming Speed Stars line, the name Mirage came into public attention. This was later plastered onto everyone’s minds by the Transformers: Dark of the Moon tie-in Comic Books, Novel and Video Game.

Just when everything seems all fine and dandy, all hell broke loose (seriously, I couldn’t find a better word for the situation) with the information told by Michael Bay Official Website Administrator; Nelson Lauren at S4TE as well as on TFW2005 Boards. He brings to the table some reasons as to why the name Mirage will not appear on the movie.

Nelson says that the Ferrari 458 Italia will be called by another name and will have an Italian Accent. The name itself is now a mystery as Nelson says that the car/Autobot in question is now named after a famous Italian.

At the moment this is highly debatable, but it is best to wait a month and findout the name of the car which Jeremy Clarkson [of Top Gear] once called as "the first properly pretty Ferrari since the 308".

It has begun! Botcon looms near and Transformers fans from around the world have begun to converge on Pasadena CA. The TFW team will naturally be present, so be sure to check here often once the convention starts for our traditional Botcon news coverage - according to Superquad7 it's the next best thing to being there!

This last week has seen some major revelations on the Movie front. Two new TV spots were posted - one featuring a red Ferrari Transformer who we thought was Mirage but apparently not. On our own side closer to home, we launched TFWe - an e-magazine by the winning TFW team of Kickback, Shin Densetsu, Sol Fury and Secretcode; also featuring the webcomic comedy of Deefuzz and Shibamura Prime "As the Fandom Turns".

Video Sneak Peek: Dark Of The Moon - Linkin Park Iridescent

Got the word from MTV…

"As Linkin Park's musical vision gets more expansive and ambitious, so too have their videos. We've got a sneak peek of "Iridescent," the lead single off the upcoming Transformers: Dark of the Moon soundtrack. And if the clip below is any indication of the entire video, the band has fully embraced their sci-fi side, as the hand (of God?) reaches out to a group of people wholly obscured by sheets. Meanwhile, Mike Shinoda caresses a snake, while a H.R. Giger-esque creature scans a floating, holographic rotating polygon.

Directed by band member Joe Hahn, "Iridescent" is the fourth single from the band's fourth album A Thousand Suns. And don't forget to watch the full-length "Iridescent" video when it premieres Thursday, June 2, on MTV and MTV.com."
