Transformers: Age of Extinction TV Spot #2 (Updated)

A new TV spot for Transformers: Age of Extinction has been posted online. Not sure what show it aired with or when. It really is just a much shortened version of the first teaser trailer with no new footage. Thanks to Feris O. for the link.

Update: From the comments, the spot aired during last nights 2014 Kids' Choice Awards. Also, it was accurately pointed out that this is TV spot #2 since the Super Bowl spot is really #1. A better quality version of TV Spot #2 is up at MovieWeb.

Update 2: Seems Paramount has pulled the spot from everywhere.

Optimus Prime Truck at Mid-American Trucking Show

Thanks to Steve J. here are picks of the new Western Star Optimus Prime truck that will debut in Transformers: Age of Extinction in June. The vehicle was on display at the Mid-American Trucking Show 2014. As the pics show, the truck retains the flames and includes the Autobot symbol on the rims. According to more pics over at TFW2005, it appears that Western Star has decided to honor the vehicle with a new model number: WS5700-OP.

Two Images From Transformers 4

Two new images from the Transformers: Age of Extinction account have been posted on the transformers_movie Instagram account. To my knowledge the account isn't officially associated with the movie so not sure of their source. If the first image of Mark Wahlberg looks familiar, it is because a similar image was used for a TF4 poster. Thanks to Feris O. for finding them.

Video Interviews with Peltz, Raynor and Wahlberg

Collider has posted two videos (below) of their interviews with the core cast of Transformers: Age of Extinction while they were attending CinemaCon in Las Vegas this week. The first video is with Jack Reynor and Nicola Peltz while the second was with Mark Wahlberg. Lots of background noise so hard to catch everything. Not much is revealed story wise as Raynor and Peltz were clearly coached to twist any answer into up selling the movie while revealing nothing specific about the movie (as likely ordered by Bay and the studio).

First Look at New Transformers Cartoon's Optimus Prime

A new image from Kids TV Magazine has provide a look at the cartoon version of Optimus Prime to go along with the early peek at Bumblebee. The ad indicates that the news series, maybe simply titles "Transformers" is set for a Spring 2015 debut. It really does look like Hasbro intends to return to Transformers: Animated type style with a mix of Transformers: Prime. Considering their intent to simplify Transformers line wide to capture a younger (not teens or older) audience, the cartoon's look and possible direction aligns with that goal. As usual, time will tell. (via Seibertron)
