Para­mount Pic­tures have released the RSVP details for the the­aters show­ing the Trans­form­ers re-release and brand new accom­pa­ny­ing Trans­form­ers 2 trailer. The flier pro­vides a list of RSVP email addresses and sug­gests that by email­ing them you can reserve a seat. This is not the case. To grab a ticket you must turn up at the the­ater as early as pos­si­ble, to guar­an­tee a seat — the addresses are used to deter­mine pop­u­lar­ity, as TLAMB discovered.

There shall also be a cos­tume com­pe­ti­tion — the best dressed Auto­bot or Decep­ti­con shall win a trip to the pre­mière in Los Angeles.

Thanks for the RSVP for the spe­cial screen­ing of TRANSFORMERS. The screen­ing is FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE. PLEASE ARRIVE EARLY, as this RSVP is to estab­lish an accu­rate head count and does not guar­an­tee seat­ing. No one will be admit­ted once the screen­ing begins.

Come to the screen­ing dressed as the coolest/most creative/awesome Trans­former ever and be entered to win a trip to the Pre­mière in Los Angeles!!!!

Mixmaster’s toy pack­ag­ing fea­tures a bio and pic­tures of all three toy modes — alt, robot and battle.

Res­i­dent chemist and explo­sives expert for the élite among the Decep­ti­cons, Mix­mas­ter has spent his entire life learn­ing all there is to know about chem­i­cal inter­ac­tion. He can make thou­sands of poi­sons, explo­sives, and deadly gasses from the mate­ri­als around him. The other Decep­ti­cons rely on him to fash­ion pow­er­ful war­heads for their mis­siles, and dan­ger­ous ven­oms in which to coat their blades.

Con­ces­sion Cups

Col­lider were snap­ping shots on the ShoW­est con­ven­tion floor, included in their round up are Trans­form­ers 2 con­ces­sion cups fea­tur­ing Bum­ble­bee, Mega­tron, Opti­mus Prime and Starscream.

Ratchet Bio

Rac­ing across the dunes of the north­ern Sahara Desert, the roar of this engine echo­ing off the ever-shifting dunes, Auto­bot Ratchet charges toward the inevitable con­fronta­tion with Mega­tron and his assem­bled Decep­ti­con army. Though he has bat­tled against odds this bad in the past, no fight before has meant so much. He knows the fate of the uni­verse rests on the out­come of this con­flict, and he will do every­thing in his power to see to it that his allies come through it safe and victorious.

Skids & Mudflaps

TF08 have posted some close up shots of TF2’s mech­a­nized Jar Jar Binks buck toothed twins toys; Skids and Mudflaps.

The fea­ture, clearly strapped for footage as it shows the same scenes twice in under thirty sec­onds (and up to three times in two min­utes), gives an overview of the sequel whilst giv­ing Bay some time to explain how the robots have evolved. He also throws a dig at Cameron’s Avatar, sug­gest­ing that 3D is a gimmick.

Reg­u­lar Trans­form­ers toy reviewer Peaugh is back with three more videos, this time for the Deluxe Chro­mia, Leader class Mega­tron and Scout class Dune Run­ner toys.

Whether Chro­mia com­bines with Arcee is still ques­tion­able, there are some extra unused parts included with Chro­mia which sug­gest the slight possibility.

Michael Bay recently noted that Steve Jablon­sky and Linkin Park were work­ing on the Trans­form­ers 2 score. Jablon­sky scored the first movie and Linkin Park also appeared on that film’s offi­cial soundtrack.

BREAKING NEWS: Linkin Park will be work­ing on the score for Trans­form­ers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen.

Although I wasn’t at lib­erty to say it before, the song I’ve been ref­er­enc­ing here on mikeshin​oda​.com in the past few weeks…is actu­ally being done for Michael Bay’s new Trans­form­ers film, due out June 24th.

In addition–and prob­a­bly ever cooler–we have been offered the unique oppor­tu­nity to help score the film. The song we wrote is being used as one of the themes, and we will be writ­ing var­i­ous inter­po­la­tions on that theme, and try­ing out some other the­matic ideas as part of the (very large) team scor­ing the film.
My band­mates and I are work­ing with award-winning film com­poser (and res­i­dent ass-kicker) Hans Zim­mer. We met with Hans last week, and heard some of the incred­i­ble things he and his guys have done with our new song. In the next few days, we’ll be doing some work with Hans’ amaz­ing writ­ing and record­ing crew.

Michael Bay has shown us select scenes from the film, and it looks incred­i­ble. I can’t wait for you to see it.

The toy isn’t yet in the hands of review­ers and Trans­form­ers sleuths, but an appear­ances has been made on the side of another Toy’s box. The deluxe class toy fea­tures two weapons pro­trud­ing from its rear back:

The new Revenge of the Fallen trailer shall pre­mière with a re-release of the first Trans­form­ers movie, across 20 loca­tions (five of those being in IMAX) on April 29th. Ticket details are not yet avail­able, but we should hear about those within the next cou­ple of days.
