ATTN: Botcon Coverage Needed! Posted by [Classic Megatron]
Unfortunately, none of our staff here at VS will be able to make it to Botcon this year. Therefore, we're looking for a visitor or member who would like to share their Botcon log / coverage with us and have it hosted on the site in our upcoming events section. If you're going to this year's convention and are interested in doing this, please send me an eMail here, or click on the discuss button below to inquire about it in the forums.
We all pretty much knew this was coming. eBay has finally pulled the plug (no pun intended) on all of the "unplugged" (the ones without the orange safety parts in the tip of the gun barrel) MP-05 Masterpeice Megatron figures. Listing any Masterpiece, vintage G1 Megatron, or anything else which transforms into a Walther P-38 can now land you a suspension of your eBay account.

Activision TF Movie Web Game Posted by [
Starscreams Ghost]
Activision's Official Transformers The Movie Game site is now online and operational. It is based off of their official Transformers The Movie Game. Basically you decide on your faction and then chose your drone. Then you pick what's called a "cell" and commence battle against another player. It is a multiplayer-only game so you never play against the game itself (AI) Click here to play the game!
