Now that the official movie trailer has hit, new images and information is escaping out of Transformers at a rapid pace. Today we bring you Optimus Prime on the cover of the February issue of EMPIRE Magazine. Full picture after the jump.

As you can see it's a full frontal view of the Autobots commander. The details have been intentionally hidden in shadow. The magazine hits store shelves in the UK on January 3rd 2007. I assume that the inside might have a couple more exclusive pictures as well.

Thanks to TFormers.com, we have this cover photo. Click the image above for a higher resolution shot.

Transformers will unfold onto the big screen on July 4th 2007.
