Allspark.com has gathered some information from Toyfair UK and has been nice enough to share it with us. First is what seems to be called "Automorph Technology," which is described by the brochure that was acquired by Allspark as, "advanced automorph technology that moves multiple pieces when 1 piece is moved." Also, more on the movie toys: "[a]ll toys come with lights and sounds to bring the action to life!" The packaging will also feature "Try Me Packaging." To check out the images, head over to the Allspark.

to me the only thing cool about this is seeing (in the pics) that we may get to see altinator shockwave but thats for a different thread.

Sounds kinda like BW Primal's legs...when you pull them down, those little shocks are revealed and extend with them.

Edited because this guy said it better on TFW2005:

OMG that's nifty if true

I have no idea what skullfire just said... Alternators Shockwave has been out for over a year.

 

I totally laughed out loud when i read "Do a Barrel Roll" starscream.

Even more news from the Toy Fair UK here. Looks like the mainline toys are limited to Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader classes, but we're also getting "Unleashed", non-transforming "Authentic Action Figures" and "T.E.C.H. role play".

 

It's worth noting that, according to that link, lights, sounds, and "try me" packaging looks limited to Leader Class toys only.

Well, I think he's a first time release in the UK...but I could be wrong.

*Reads announcements*

 

Well...now we know what line out of the ten possible will appear in the movie.

 

I quote:"Other buttons activate transformation sounds and key phrases from the movie such as "Autobots, Transform and roll out!"
