What's the best way to find out about new TF products?

Should I just stick to the news section? As I'm new, I'm thinking there are people here who know FAR in advance of others when new products are coming out, details and release dates.

I'm thinking about times when I missed the earliest notifications on HftD Leader Starscream and Encore 20 Devastator. Most of the info I got was from skimming google, but I was only out of the loop for what I thought was a short period of time before BAM, all this cool stuff was already out and I almost missed the boat

As I don't want that happening again, what's the best place on this site for new release information? And perhaps other sites, like TF2005, I'm sure they have a quick go-to section for upcoming stuff?

I should add: upcoming stuff that has an actual release date, not prototypes that might take a year to see the light of day (like in Leader Starscream's case, I waited a LOOOOONG time until he hit the shelves).

Thanks again!

Tfw2005 or this site should keep you updated.

This is what I use too. I also use TFSource home page for pictures and expected dates of the newest preorders. They seem to always have them up first. BBTS does too but I don't find their site as easy to use.

Re: What's the best way to find out about new TF products?

Yeah, this site basically reposts all the news from tfw2005.com.

Release dates are for retail product are rarely ever known with certainty, but I think Fezaid is keeping a list of upcoming/recently released products somewhere on this site.

So I come here for the chatting, and there for the news and customization (radicon) section.

Sometimes I'll throw "transformers news", "masterpiece transformers" etc...into Google and select images. Find it keeps me generally abreast of the wave of transformer developments.
