Local photog Remy has dropped in to let us know he's uploaded a gallery of the Exclusive M.A.S. Dai Atlas Figure by CM's.

You can drop by this thread to let Remy know what you think of this fantastic gallery, and view all the wonderful pictures of Transformers Zone's Cybertron Commander at TFKenkon.com. 

All four of the Takara/Tomy Encore Reissues, Optimus Prime, Soundwave, Starscream and "Yes Virginia" even Megatron are shown as being available online from Walmart.com. Everyone except Starscream (who is priced at $79.88) are $98.72.

They appear to have the same boxes as the regular Encore reissues, including the Japanese text.

Walmart acting on their own? Hasbro testing the waters for MP Megatron? Speculate away in darkstream's thread here.

Party like it's 1986 because that's the version in question. UK supersite Play.com shows "Transformers: The Ultimate Edition" scheduled for release on Blu-Ray January 10th, 2008 priced at £14.99.

darkstream's thread is a great place to discuss this news (and possibly your disappointment it's not the *other* Transformers movie.)

Thanks to darkstream and tfw2005 for the news.

The recent announcement of Paramount going HD-DVD exclusive apparently didn't sit too well with Mr. Bay and he posted the following on the Shoot For the Edit forums.

“I want people to see my movies in the best formats possible. For them to deny people who have Blu-ray sucks! They were progressive by having two formats. No Transformers 2 for me!

Bay”

What does this mean for the future of the Transformers franchise?  You can join the discussion already in progress in this thread.

Thanks to Buster Darkwings for bringing this to our attention
