Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen is filming in Long Beach, CA and such a public place demands amateur camera footage! Check the video above to see Optimus Prime, Ironhide, and Bumblebee information with the trio of concept cars: The Chevy Beat, Chevy Trax, and the sleek silver concept Corvette

After the break, something blows up good, and another mysterious car is revealed!

My first Animated figure and I’m quite impressed! Certainly Grimlock joins Starscream as another quality Voyager.

Galvatron has been one of my favorite Transformers ever, and I’m happy to say theres a new figure of Galvatron in Transformers Universe.

Welcome to the Powet Top Five, where we subjectively list the best of the best (or the worst of the worst) from the worlds of movies, games, comics, and toys.

In our first installment, in honor of The Dark Knight, I’m going to show you what I think are the top 5 fictional cars used in movies. If you think I missed one, leave a comment!

The Tumbler
When Batman Begins required a realisitc reboot of Bruce Wayne’s alter-ego, they made the drastic move of changing everything about the Batmobile. Previous incarnations, used in the Adam West TV series and in the 1989 Michael Keaton Batman movie, were nothing short of stylish and certainly fit in with the times and style of the movies themselves. What makes the Tumbler cooler than the rest is its an actual working car. Built from scratch with a Chevy 350 V8 engine, this gigantic beast does everything you’d expect from the movie version except use live ammo or jump across buildings. It will tear up a track better than any other Batmobile (top speed of the 89 Batmobile is said to be roughly 30 miles per hour), reaching speeds of 100 MPH on the highway chase scenes.
Is it practical? No way. Just because it works like it should doesn’t mean its a good daily driver, as its massive with limited visibility for the driver. Parallel parking would be a nightmare… of course you could just crush other cars and park where you want.

I am happy to say that I have resolved my video editing issues and have this video to share with you all. I do have to say that I really like these new Animated figures. It will be important to note when transforming Starscream back to jet mode that his automorph feature doesn’t work as well as it as it does going to robot mode. It will be most helpful to remember what his underside looks like as I point out in the video.

More videos to come! Especially these Animated figures. Hope your enjoying them as much as I am.

This is mildly old news by now, but I haven’t seen this specific trailer appear online yet. glu Mobile was on hand at Botcon 2008 with a display that had this trailer on loop. I finally got some video issues worked out and got it uploaded so everyone could see. Enjoy! (Apologies for the screaming kids in the background. Its a toy convention.)

Josh Landow comes through again with another set report. This time star Shia Labeouf and his bitchin’ Camaro were shooting at some frat houses at the University of Pennsylvania!
As usual, possible spoilers follow.

After Josh Landow went On set with Transformers 2 in Philadelphia, another Y100 DJ, John Von, has supplied Powet.TV with more photos and video!

John’s video is comprised of the aerial camera rig and helicopter taking sweeping shots of a cemetery. Who died? Jon did get the first known photograph of the Chevy Beat concept car thats joined the cast. A separate eyewitness report yesterday suggested the Beat was racing across Philly’s Ben Franklin Bridge with Bumblebee!
