Yeah it's not Tyrannosaurus itself, but this find the largest feathered Tyrannosaurid yet . This one is way closer related to T.Rex too then the other examples.

Now we just need to have BW Megatron and Grimlock get some proper, accurate toys.

Hey look, it's new TV Show Bumblebee!

Okay guys, as some of you know, I work in advertising. Since I do work in the industry, it means I often get to read some of the various trade publications. Now, often various media companies will buy out a special cover ad, which is an extra cover on top of the normal cover.

Well this week's one for Brandweek/Adweek/Mediaweek is for the Hub, and as you can see, look who is in the upper left section. It's a Bumblebee we have not seen! It's only a partial shot of his upper body, but it something. Now he is taking some heavy movie cues, but there are also differences, such as his face and the shoulders.

Okay maybe I should quit blathering about it and just post it. Now since I am at work, this is the best I can do right now, I have a better scan I can put up when I get home.
