Thanks to the GI Joe club, some better photos of the SDCC 2012 GIJoe/Transformers exclusive Shockwave HISS tank have surfaces revealing many of the accessories that will be coming alongside the custom vehicle. Good luck getting your hands on one of these, collectors. It is not going to be easy.
It appears the set will include the following:
HISS tank with custom Shockwave cannon turret
Destro
Constructicon colored BAT
Suitcase of cash
2 guns for Destro
2 contructicon colored weapons for the BAT
3 Energon cubes and cart to move them
A small scale Soundwave cassette player
3 cassettes to put in Soundwave
I am really loving these shorts. Hasbro’s KRE-O construction block brand has put up another video on youtube. This time its a talent show spoof done in stop motion animation. Enjoy!

“You may lose your faith in us, but never in yourselves. From here, the fight will be your own..”
Transformers: Dark Of The Moon fires its latest salvo at the fanbase and mainstream audiences that lost faith in the series with Revenge Of the Fallen. Director Michael Bay will employ Shockwave to destroy Earth if he has to, but he will win those fans back.
What say you, Powet readers? Will you be there for the July 1 release or will you wait for the reviews? Will you see it in theaters, hold off for DVD, or skip it all together?

Paramount and Dreamworks have cooked up 3 new banners advertising the pending released of the third live action Transformers movie, Dark Of The Moon. We see our old friends Optimus Prime and Bumblebee over a ruined Chicago backdrop, and also our first official image of Shockwave, the big bad villain of the movie.
The full trailer will run in front of Fast Five in theaters next week, but after it premiers online. Powet.TV will of course post it as soon as its officially available (or leaked to youtube).
