If you've missed New Moon Taylor Lautner's latest transition, come out of the dark. The studly on-screen werewolf has morphed into "wow" with his recent upgrade, adding 30 LBS of muscleto his fierce physique. 

Fans can't get enough of teenage Taylor's latest pic shoot, revealing the buff boy, but Lautner says the attention is awkward.

In an interview with Usmagazine.com this weekend, the face of Twilight sequel's "Jacob" says, "It's actually quite uncomfortable knowing so many people are seeing that!"

The 17-year-old saga character will reveal his new body in full-screen action in less than two months when the flick hits the screen.

Sure to be a sellout show, the movie promises to be packed with more action than its former feature and loaded with special effects.

While at Teen Vogue's 7th Annual Young Hollywood party in Los Angeles, the star told Us the media attention on his transformation is a "bit embarrassing".

For Lautner, it seems well deserved. The star reiterated previous quotes about the hard work it took him to get his body to where it is now and lets fans know they can expect to see him shirtless in the saga.

Already at work on the third rendition of the show, Eclipse, Lautner says times in Vancouver are "a lot of fun".

Lautner, who may be a bit uneasy over all these prying eyes, will garner even more fan-flames from his grace on the October cover of Teen Vogue magazine.
