00:35:13 Vintage Beast Wars reissues appear to be coming … at least to Walmart
(We have been getting some of these reissues here finally, it will be interesting to see if Beast Wars figures make a return to store shelves. It'll be weird to follow up the modern remake of a figure with the original, though.)
00:38:19 Kingdom given July release on Netflix
(So much for May)
00:39:36 Will the real Transformers movie rumour please stand up?
First up, there's this news that came out today from Hasbro's investor call:
Two Transformers films in development, one animated
And this one was from last week talking about Caple Jr's film:
Rumor: Possible Working Title For Transformers Beast Wars Movie & Details
“Transformers: Beast Alliance takes place in the Bumblebee timeline and will be set in the 1990’s. The film will have the flavor of a heist film that will span from Brooklyn to South America”.
(Maybe it's all true)
Animated Series
