Seibertron.com Energon Pub Forums

so japanese transformers get better paint jobs and exclusives,and here in america we get a billion bumblebees and frickin hostess snacks,way to go hasbro,-fail.

I can't figure out why these look so delicious to me, but they DO. The blue coconut is getting to me, and I'm not sure why.

Yeah, but you'll also need to compare it with other similar treats, so gotta get some Little Debbie and off brand as well.

Yeah, the "Little Debby" Can be your third party, while the "Off Brand" Can be knockoffs!
you gotta try em' all for the review!

"Chocwave" is a pretty funny-yet-clever pun, however "Snowballimus" isn't really all that great. Wonder if they taste like Energon?

Dammit! I can't have coconut!

They look very very VERY tasty .Cream and Convoy (aka Prime) Melissa is very happy ."Sorry Melissa my tasty Cream got all over your face "-Convoy ."It's ok ,your treat was very tasty "- Melissa . Sorry i had too ,what do you expect from a fan of the Kiss Players .

Perhaps Unicron may lay off the planets for a while and devour some of these things...NOM NOM NOM!

How about a tasty cereal that tastes like fruit loops or trix, or allspark oats with marshmallow ? Mmmmm Cybertronian cereal... Maybe I too will buy one of each and open it in another 25 years to celebrate 50 years of Transformers...

Five buck says they'll still actually be edible lol...no more edible than they are now but still edible!

"Chocwave" is just awesome. "Snowballimus" not so much. Too bad they didn't continue the trend with the Twinkies and Cup Cakes... a shame there isn't a Kup.

I have a feeling I'll be eating a lot of Chockwaves.

Put up a gallery and we're fine.

snoballimus is a terrible terrible thing Haha. Sounds like a B-movie porno name.

Chocwave.. awesome.


I'm buying a set to keep MISB...

Wait for it..

Ah **** your right well at least they put an H in Chocwave However You forgot to put 70's B-movie porno name.

Little Debbie is the Gobots of snack cakes.

Really should have thought about the name chocwave before releasing this stuff. It's childish to laugh at it but shock->choc still sounds like cock.

But I'm guessing the dude who thought of the name is snickering in his lab coat and pushing his glasses up.

It's a sad day when a company can't use "choc" to describe their chocolate products without people making up the idea that it sounds crude.

Can we have a sightings feature on these?

I honestly went out to Target and a market to look for these. I can only find the Twinkies box with Bumblebee. No Chocowave or Snoballimus.

Ugh. The coloured ones look about as gross as that Bumblebee candybar with the virulent yellow interior they used to sell. I just hope that the red and blue dyes on those snowballs don't go straight through you. Not a good pair of colours to combine inside one's self...

I do like the Twinkies. The yellow in them looks unaltered this time and Bumblebee, who strikes me as kind of a Twinkie himself as Autobots go, seems the perfect choice to be their spokesbot.

As for Sentinel Prime and CupCakes...seriously, what the hell?? Does someone in charge at Hostess get off on Sentinel and think he's a cupcake? Are all the CupCake cupcakes injected with a dose of E. coli so you can experience your own little treacherous 'surprise' a day or two after eating them?

For Sentinel:

BeastProwl: Ref. THOSE cupcakes...aahhhhhhhhhh! Oh gawd, I didn't even know these things existed! I actually just used google to confirm it, to reassure myself that the picture wasn't just photoshopped. And no, this is NOT something 'for Sentinel'. Cupcakes are something Megatron ought to be selling because Megatron is cute-proof and can be associated with anything, even disgusting pink strawberry-flavoured confections, without losing his dignity. Sentinel IMO is really only fit to flog something like nasty old-fashioned black licorice candy, the sort that smells funky and weird and like chewing tobacco.

Also, as per someone else's request, I'll try to keep an eye out for any of these Hostess 'special editions' and will report any sightings. Bet I find 'em at Zellers...
