In honor of tax day for all Americans, I wanted to do an appropriate article for the occasion. So I thought to myself, “Self, what better way to celebrate tax day than with the return of the Decepticon Energon Auditor, Ratbat!” I mean really, what’s scarier than a Decepticon? How about a Decepticon Auditor!
Music clips during transformations are instrumentals from Tony Bacala. You can listen to some more of his stuff here. (Warning, its a MySpace page with autoplay.)
The Transformers Animated series started with some skepticism, which soon turned into delight for many Transformer fans. Now with two seasons down, and the soon-to-premiere third season all but confirmed as the final season of the series, fans are of the show are left wanting more. Fear not fans! Its not over yet. It may be the final season, but its only starting this Saturday with a 90 minute premiere entitled ‘Transwarped’.
This season is sure to have quite a few things under its sleeve. Derrick Wyatt has posted a couple teaser images on his blog, A Delightful Tedium.
This past weekend, those that braved the theatrical remake of Friday The 13th got a peak at the full 2 minute teaser for the anticipated Tranformers sequel. Now Yahoo has the video online for view in High Definition.
Also at the Chicago Auto Show, Director Michael Bay delivered an additional 90 second video focused on the Chevy Autobots.
An annual tradition in the United States is being held tonight. You see, all the big marketing geniuses make commercials for their new products, and in between those commercials there is an American football game.
Movie studios are now pulling out the big guns, and a lot of their teasers are already online.
UPDATE: Many of these ads have been pulled from youtube, but you can see them all on Hulu.com/superbowl as they air in the game, or using the viewer below!
Apologies to international readers, Hulu only works in the States. Transformersmovie.com has TF2, and Coming soon has GI JOE.

Empire Online has the dramatic first look at the Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen toy line with the two preview figures to be released in May.
Bumblebee has been revamped from the first movie with a new head, some new paint details and the car mode has been altered to more greatly resemble the production version of the Camaro.
Soundwave is of course a brand new toy, showing his Cybertronian form, not unlike the 2007 preview toys. What other form he might take in the movie remains a mystery.
I was, admittedly, a little liberal with the video editing in this one. Hope you guys enjoy!
Just a note on that really tight joint on the wing I mentioned in the video, if you loosen the screw just a bit, it should relieve most of that tension that makes it so hard to twist.
