We still have plenty of video from SDCC that we're processing and will have available over the next few days. Until then though, you can enjoy video taken straight from the Hasbro Transformers Panel, so you don't have to try to imagine what was shown--you can see it for yourself! Click the following links for Transformer goodness!
We had seen video of a red Jeep riding around in a flatbed trailer, but we had no concrete evidence who it was and whether or not it was truly a Transformer. Now however, the first close up images have started to come out, revealing the Jeep to be an Autobot, and perhaps also revealing who it is. On the front of the Jeep, the name "Rollbar" is written out in big black lettering.
A couple of new listings on TRU.com might just get some fan attention. First up is the long awaited Transformers Animated Cybertron Mode Ironhide! According to the listing, he is in stock and scheduled to ship in 1-2 business days! The other listing is for a Transformers Action Figure 2-pack for $19.99...and that's the only information provided by the listing. This product is in stock and shipping in 1-2 business days as well.(Only time will tell if these are actually in stock, or if the website is in error, as it was for Masterpiece Grimlock.)
Cybertron Con China is beginning to be set up, and now we have our first images of the upcoming TakaraTomy MP-09 Masterpiece Rodimus Convoy figure! Like the original figure, Rodimus Convoy (Rodimus Prime in the US) features a detachable trailer that is a mobile weapons placement. Rodimus Convoy also contains a cartoon accurate robot mode.
The Allspark is proud to present scans of the comic book included with TakaraTomy's e-Hobby Exclusive Edition Masterpiece MP-03G Ghost Starscream. Find out the origin of Masterpiece Ghost Starscream and how he came to be. This comic continues the storyline originated with Masterpiece Convoy Black. This comic was only included in the Japanese e-Hobby Edition of MP-03G and not included in the general Asian release. The Transformers e-Hobby Comic Vol. 2 is written by Naoto Sakai and illustrated by Hidetsugu Yoshioka.

A new mystery vehicle was seen being transported around the streets of Chicago during filming for Transformers 3. The vehicle in question is a customized red Jeep with off-road wheels and a beefier roll cage. Not much is known about the vehicle--or even if it's actually part of the movie--but speculation abounds anyhow! You can see video of the Jeep, provided by YouTube user MischiefChavez, below.
