The first annual Transformers convention in Singapore kicks off tomorrow and the Resorts World building is undergoing a major transformation. Fans can expect to see Transformers toys from some of the major lines and a host of current toys. A massive, life sized Optimus Prime will be in attendance and with the help of some scaffolding, attendees will be able to take their pictures eye to eye with the iconic Autobot hero.
Among the displays will be a Kre O area, with interactive events starring Kre O BumbleBee. According to Asia.cnet.com, one of, if not THE major detail this preview has divulged, is the planned announcement regarding Transformers 4! What information will leave the realm of speculation? Time will tell.
Seibertron will be on hand to report all the news so keep it here for CybertronCon 2012 Coverage from Singapore!

Seibertron.com Team member Mach is on hand in Singapore at the beautiful World Resort. His first wave of photos can be found below and it still some time before the event launches! Displays of the origins of Transformers have been spotted, and the empty room where an interview with Hideaki Yoke, considered the father of Transformers, will be soon be filled. We will continue posting news and reveals throughout the event and for the remainder of the weekend!

Mach has sent another load of pics, this time detailing the Transformers Prime Arms Micron campaign. These Deluxe scale figures will include dynamic new "partners" that will transform from weapon to robot or animal. Also on display are 2 Lucky Draw style Voyagers from Dark of the Moon; Megatron and Sentinel Prime!

Pity I can't make it this time around. Thanks to Mach for such cool pictures! I wonder if there would be any more Tf cons in Singapore..
Anyways the Takara's Prime figures looks really good; glad I pre-ordered them.

Man, they are really Rolling Out the red carpet for this event. I mean it looks really good! I love the wall displays they are using, I wouldn't mind seeing more o'that.
Is there a demo of FOC on the floor?!? That would be awesome. I'm hoping they show us some wave 3 Generations or some news about some new United figures. (Like better looking Combaticons)
I hope to wake up tomorrow and be razzle-dazzled by a flashy flurry of titillating Transformers tidbits & perfectly procured photographs.

Oh yes, who's ready for a new line up of Seekers? I know I am. Thanks to Seibertron.com News Crew member DevastaTTor, We have our first look at Transformers Generations Deluxe, Fall of Cybertron Starscream! This guy heavily resembles his War for Cybertron appearance. The indication is that he will be released Spring 2013. DevastaTTor adds:
DevastaTTor has joined Mach to represent Seibertron.com at CybertronCon 2012, Singapore!
Before a huge crowd for the Hasbro/Takara Tomy Brand Development and Product Panel Discussion, Hasbro revealed the first Generations figure to be released as part of wave 1 in 2013: deluxe class Starscream.
Transformers Global Brand Director, Jerry Jiovin, also teased the crowed a little with the potential for the release of FOC Grimlock. When asked by a member of the crowd if we'd see him in the same wave, he sheepishly grinned and answered " Stay tuned..."

Despite some overcrowding at times, I thought for a first attempt, the show was fantastic. Hopefully I can plan some business at the same time next year and make it an annual event.
It was a good primer for SDCC 2012.

It's about time! At last, a Cybertronian Starscream who is not from the Galaxy Force family.
Sure, it's still a year ahead, but I have high hope that dude will not be cancelled. Hey, any seeker molds are money printers with all the possible repaints.
I'm looking forward to get you, my precioussssss..................

In regards to screamer.
That is one SICK deluxe. I had to keep reading over the description due to the detail (and being buzzed) to make sure. Seeing the trio of seekers in that mold will be awesome. I'm guessing the wing armaments are removable for hand held guns. Heres hoping theres some sort of better arangment that can eventually be worked out, that frees the wings up a bit in alt. mode.

Also revealed at Cybertron Con 2012 during the Hasbro/TT Brand Development Panel, two new Transformers Prime characters: deluxe class Sergeant Kup and Rumble. These two new figures are scheduled to be released as wave 5 of the RID toy line in October 2012. Kup appears to be a repaint of the upcoming Ironhide mold. Since I don't collect TF Prime figures, Rumble may already be a repaint of another figure. However, if not, we can only assume that the repaint of this mold will be Frenzy. I'm sure someone can clarify for me.

Really diggin' Kup & Rumble. I wonder if they'll be in the show?

Great Starscream, I love cybertronian models, but I am confused now... If this is part of Fall of Cybertron, why is it wave 1? I was thinking those figures we saw in Toy Fair would be part of Generations wave 1 to be released still in 2012: Jazz, Optimus, Shockwave and Bruticus...
So, will all the Generation Deluxes be in smaller sizes? That sucks... They will display oddly with the old ones...

This may well be the best Seeker mold ever. Now to hope we don't have to wait like 5 years to get Thundercracker and Skywarp widely available.
It looks tons better than the current Classics mold, and I'd totally buy every new-character redeco of it tbh.

One would assume they would make a repaint of Thunderscracker and Skywarp, but Hasbro/Takara has a way of letting us assume the obvious and then not follow through with it.
The Michael Bay Transformers movie brought us a Starscream in his movie colors and a Thundercracker. Then Target released an exclusive of movie Starscream in original Generation 1 colors, but we would not get a Skywarp until ROTF and then it was a Wal-Mart exclusive.
With the Transformers: Animated line, we got a Starscream, a Skywarp, and a Target exclusive Sunstorm, but Thundercracker never came to fruition.
With Hasbro's Classics/Generations, we got a Starscream, a Ramjet, an Acidstorm, a Target exclusive two-pack of Skywarp and Ultra Magnus, a second release of Starscream, and finally much later we got a Thundercracker (after so many of us had given up hope and bought the Takara version instead). And even then, we got a Thrust and a Dirge before we were able to complete the original three seekers of Starscream, Thundercracker, and Skywarp.
Then recently, with the release of DOTM deluxe figures, we got a Starscream in movie colors and even Thundercracker in the same wave from Hasbro, but the Skywarp that was introduced would only be available through Takara only.
So Hasbro/Takara has a way of teasing us into cardiac arrest over these new possibilities of new Seekers, only to piss us off when we only get 2/3rds of the original Seekers. So don't count your FOC Seekers yet. I suspect one of them will be available as a retail chain exclusive or released only through Takara only.
