Hey everyone,

Sorry I should have posted this announcement sooner. But it has been pretty toxic here in the office.

As you can see, we’ve made some changes to the forums:

Aside from the Transformers Forums, we’ve expanded the other toy lines into Japanese toys and American toys. Under the Japanese toys we have:
1) Toku Heroes Philippines - where we post everything that is Toku or Japanese sci fi live action
2) Super Robots and Other Mecha
3) Zoids
4) Anime Toys and Other Japanese Toys

Under the American toys category we have:
1) Marvel
2) GI Joe
3) DC
4) Other American toys

We’ve also included checklists for each category, as well as a general toy forum for any discussion that can include either japanese or american toys.

Why have we done this? Well, we’ve noticed that the old setup was limiting the discussions where the toyslines have been evolving (e.g. Revoltech isn’t now limited to robots, Figurearts isn’t limited to Toku, etc). CybPh membership is also growing. We are no longer just a Transformers group. We now have more members who are into Marvel, GI Joe, DC, Anime Toys, etc. We believe this adjustment would be beneficial for the old members and the new (and upcoming) members.

Finally, this setup is also in anticipation of the activities lined up for CybPh starting next year. There is the GI Joe Movie, Wolverine Live Action Movie, and of course, Transformers Movie: Revenge of the Fallen, among others. We’re gearing up for all these events, so its best to be prepared.

Thank you all again for your all out support and rest assured CybPh will be here to provide you firsthand information on toys, movies, and other news, as well as organize group buys, promos, and events for the benefit of its members.

Stay Tuned!

Hi fellow CybPh’ers.

Cybertron Philippines turns 5 today. The spark within us still glows strong! A lot new members, a lot new friends, and a lot of events happened. Year 4 was marked with the historic launch of The Transformers movie which placed the franchise back to glory. The movie toys were sold out everywhere and it became an instant global phenomenon…

This year wont be any different. The momentum created by the fantastic live-action movie will continue to recruit new spark back to Cybertron. Transformers Animated, a 26 episode series has been shown in the US and now we are waiting for the toy release. Transformers Encore is churning out exemplary characters from the G1 days. Transformers Henkei, the Japanese counterpart of TF Classics 1.0, has also started to be released in Japan. TF Classics 2.0 is just around the corner and the recent announcement of resurrecting the Binaltech line clearly shows that TakTomy/Hasbro is supporting the Transformers franchise…

A lot of non-tf related events will also be done by CybPH this year. For starters, the upcoming Iron Man toy launch would mark our continued partnership with Solar-UIP, the motion picture distributor in the Philippines. We are also waiting for the release of HML4 figures. These two we can already inform you. However, there are still other events planned within the year which are still on the drawing board…

To one and all, let your friends know that Cybertron Philippines is here to stay and will continue to bring you high caliber events. We will only get bigger and better.

Happy 5th Birthday, Cybertron Philippines!
and Thank You to each and everyone who has made and is part of Cybertron Philippines!

Come 1PM of day 1, everyone gathered around the stage area for some fun and games provided by the guys from Cybertron Philippines. Prizes courtesy of our sponsors Solar-UIP, Shangri La Mall, Growee, KidzStation and Powerbooks livened up the event for everyone. Transformers posters, transforming pens, toys, gift certificates, growee and powerbooks giftpacks were enough to populate the fountain area with rabid Transformers fans.

Transforming contests, stop-dance competitions, trivia games, transformers matching games and growee theme song rendition contests ran for four hours during the event, along with the occasional Bring Me that kept everyone on their toes.
