Spike TV’s Video Game Awards are running live right now, but if you missed the show (probably better off if you did), the next chapter of Transformers had its theatrical premiere.

Fall of Cybertron continues the fight from 2010’s War For Cybertron and adds several favorite characters to the mix. See some Decepticons combine and then a Dinobot challenge them!

The name of the song included in the video is “The Humbling River” by the band Puscifer.

The location for Botcon 2012 has been announced and its going back to Texas. Next year’s Botcon will take place in Dallas from April 26 to 29th. The main hotel will be the Hyatt Regency Dallas. As quickly as we are getting this information to you, though, it sounds like Sunday is already selling out. Book your hotel quickly! We’ve got ours and we hope to see you there!

I decided to continue this little format experiment. Here are some highlights from the world of action figures during the month of November 2011.

MattyCollector.com has posted their Cyber Monday ordering page here. There are a few whopper deals on there including as much as %50 off most available MOTU Classics figures. The Ghostbusters Ghost Trap has also come back in stock.

In the same vein as the deluxe Millennium Falcon and the deluxe AT-AT, this year’s large scale Star Wars vehicle is the Republic Attack Shuttle. As part of Amazon’s Cyber Monday deals, this gigantic product is marked down from $90 to $50.
You can see the Attack Shuttle on sale here.

Amazon.com has marked most of the KREO Transformers line down to almost 50% of its retail value.
You can see the heavily discounted KREO figures here.

The location for the 2012 GI Joe Collectors’ Convention will be New Orleans, Louisiana. The con will take place starting June 21st through June 24th. Hotel information will be coming soon, but at least you can start planning where you won’t be during those days. The June/July convention time slot is usually saved for Botcon, the official Transformers Collectors’ Convention, both run by Fun Publications. The significance of this should not be lost. The GI Joe movie sequel, GI Joe: Retaliation, premieres one week after the date of this convention.
