Livestream auctions are the ultimate thrill ride—bidders battling it out in real-time, and the energy is electric. Toki, the first social commerce platform for collectibles here in the Philippines, has taken this excitement to a whole new level. They've created a virtual space where collectors can not only score awesome stuff but also hang out and interact.
Here are the top 5 moments from Toki's livestream auctions that totally stole the show:
Orion Pax in Transformers One
Reviews for Transformers One have started to come out, and reactions from critics have so far been mostly positive.
“TRANSFORMERS ONE is by far and away the best Transformers film to date,” raved a critic for Next Best Picture. “Rich in character and emotion with a deep reverence for the lore, it tells the origins of Optimus Prime and Megatron, tragically transforming once from brothers to enemies. Josh Cooley directed this animated film to perfection, down to the last comedic and action beat, all backed by an epic score and an excellent voice cast.”

About Venom: The Last Dance
In Venom: The Last Dance, Tom Hardy returns as Venom, one of Marvel’s greatest and most complex characters, for the final film in the trilogy. Eddie and Venom are on the run. Hunted by both of their worlds and with the net closing in, the duo are forced into a devastating decision that will bring the curtains down on Venom and Eddie’s last dance.
“We’re Transformers! We are Transformers!” shouts out an excited B-127, voiced by Keegan-Michael Key in Transformers One, the first-ever fully CG-animated Transformers movie.
Voicing Bumblebee is an honor for Key, especially because in previous Transformers movies, the fan favorite robot didn’t have a voice. “I really enjoyed being able to give Bumblebee a voice. Over the last few movies he speaks through the radio inside the Volkswagen, which I thought was so cool,” says Key. “But now we get to imbue him with personality through his voice and I was really honored that I got the opportunity to do that.”

The story of Christopher Reeve is an astonishing rise from unknown actor to iconic movie star, and his definitive portrayal of Clark Kent/Superman set the benchmark for the superhero cinematic universes that dominate cinema today. Reeve portrayed the Man of Steel in four “Superman” films and played dozens of other roles that displayed his talent and range as an actor, before being injured in a near-fatal horse-riding accident in 1995 that left him paralyzed from the neck down.
