Para­mount Pic­tures have released a host of new Trans­form­ers 2 movie stills, I’m sure we’ve seen some of these before, pos­si­bly as screen­shots from HD trail­ers or TV Spots, so I’m post­ing some of the newer ones:

We recently saw the UK release date for Trans­form­ers 2 moved to June 19th, to coin­cide with the June 15th pre­mière. Japan’s Revenge of the Fallen release date has also changed, it has been updated to June 20th, prob­a­bly to coin­cide with the June 8th world pre­mière of the movie.

No update on the US release date which still sits on June 24th. And no word on the US pre­mière either yet.

TF08 have the skinny on more Trans­form­ers 2 toy exclu­sives, this time it’s Long Haul in his box:

Long Haul

Long Haul is too bit­ter to be an effec­tive sol­dier on his own. Despite the fact that he is part of one of the most destruc­tive and ter­ri­fy­ing Decep­ti­con squads of all time, he is often treated as lit­tle more then a cargo hauler. Other Decep­ti­cons sling their gear into his bed with­out a sec­ond thought, and order him to carry it around for them. Rather than con­front them, he’d rather grum­ble about it pri­vately, then stop on the way and destroy what­ever he’s been given respon­si­bil­ity for.

GM are tak­ing orders for a lim­ited spe­cial edi­tion 2010 ‘Bum­ble­bee’ ver­sion of the Camaro from June 1st. Includ­ing the famous yel­low with black stripes and Trans­form­ers badg­ing on the wheels and plates and embroi­dered on the con­sole lid. No pric­ing avail­able yet.

The next MTV movie awards shall air on May 31st at 9pm/8pm CST, with Michael Bay and Megan Fox set to present. The award cer­e­mony shall fea­ture an exclu­sive Trans­form­ers Revenge of the Fallen clip that shall be pre­sented by Megan Fox and then aired. It’ll prob­a­bly turn up online shortly thereafter.

The Trans­form­ers 2 toy ads will begin doing their rounds very shortly, here is a video of one of them:

Michael Bay’s offi­cial site has posted some new CG shots, includ­ing our first look at Side­ways (the Audi R8). The ren­ders are slightly dif­fer­ent to the ones seen pre­vi­ously, these are more likely to be from the video game:

New on set images

Bay’s site have also posted new shots from the set of Trans­form­ers 2, show­ing Shia and Bay work­ing together:

Here it comes, a mam­moth Revenge of the Fallen updates to post — I apol­o­gize for the delay in posts, I’m away in Prague at the moment. Here we go, in chrono­log­i­cal order:

Voy­ager Grindor

The Black­out repaint is now named ‘Grindor’ and once again comes with Scorpinok:

GRINDOR is a born sol­dier. He is both a highly tal­ented fighter, and an instinc­tive strate­gist. Every moment of a bat­tle is laid out in his head before the first shot is even fired. He is so tal­ented at antic­i­pat­ing his enemy’s moves that he is almost never sur­prised. When­ever he can, he ensures him­self a place at the direct cen­ter of a fight so that he can bring his pow­er­ful weapons to bear on the AUTOBOTS around him, destroy­ing as many as he can as quickly as possible.
