The lat­est Toy­fare mag­a­zine has some juicy gos­sip bits about Trans­form­ers 2, pri­mar­ily that Dev­as­ta­tor will be up to 120 foot tall and that The Fallen is one of the orig­i­nal 13 Trans­form­ers, the one that went bad — play­ing on the apos­tles theology.

Tim For­mas sur­mised the article:

- Images of ROTF toys for Leader class Opti­mus Prime, Pre­view Bum­ble­bee, Pre­view Sound­wave, and the Voy­ager Class Starscream fig­ure.
– Lorenzo believes the time­frame of ROTF is about one year after Movie #1.
– When asked about the chal­lenge of cre­at­ing Dev­as­ta­tor on screen, Lorenzo men­tions that Bay had the chal­lenge in the first movie of hav­ing 30 foot robots. In the sec­ond movie, Bay has the chal­lenge of hav­ing a robot almost four times that. Expect Dev­as­ta­tor to be 100 to 120 feet tall in the movie.
– Archer said he couldn’t give away the plot point, but there’s a rea­son that Sound­wave is designed the way he is for the movie. Has­bro had a more basic toy need. So, the two were blended together.
– Toy launch date con­firmed as May 30th. A few weeks before, Bum­ble­bee and Sound­wave will be released.
– Char­ac­ters men­tioned in the ini­tial wave are “Side­swipe, Side­ways, Bull­dozer, Voy­ager and many oth­ers”. Promise of more off-screen char­ac­ters.
– Robot Heroes will have bet­ter artic­u­la­tion
– Bum­ble­bee hel­met has voice mixer
– Bum­ble­bee con­vert­ing pulse can­non
– Big ticket deluxe item for the year is still “top-secret“
– Grav­ity Bots are geared towards younger kids. Con­vert auto­mat­i­cally when you pick them up.
– A Megan Fox Human Alliance fig­ure is on Archer’s “wish list”.
– The Fallen’s ori­gin con­firmed: He is one of the orig­i­nal 13 Trans­form­ers. Lorenzo said to think of the 13 as “apos­tles”. The Fallen is the one who turns and is the rea­son Trans­form­ers split into Auto­bots and Decepticons.
