Burger King UK slammed for TF toys.

Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

In the news today we have.

1. Kids throwing debris off of motorway bridges and killing people.

2. People vandalising and poisoning emergency water supplies for flood victims that have had very little water for over two weeks.

3. A group of really thick people complaining about a group of toys that have been around for twenty three years because they happen to be from a 12a rated film.

These people (Item 3) are SICK, and need to look at their priorities. There are a lot worse things happening under their noses. Its about time they joined the real world.

.......Why am I not suprised? Just last week the stupid brit government banned Mario Party 8 because it contained the word "spastic". They claim it offensive. And "ninja" was also a offensive word back in Ninja turtle days. They were relabeled HERO Turtles over there. Stupid Brit censors.

whoa crazy! you gotta be 12 to watch TF! here in the states you gotta be 13 to watch the movie. for crissakes, 12 year olds arent even teenagers and theyre watching a violent movie such as transformers. haha. i bet american 12 year olds wish they lived in the UK after being denied to buy a ticket to TF. haha, i still sometimes get carded when i watch and R rated flick; getting carded lowers self esteem :cry:

'Cause we have not see true TFs with diecast since the early days of generation one. The only ones that have had it lately are the TItanium series, both the 6 inch and 3 inch. Oh and I suppose the re-issues had die-cast too.

Ah. Thanks, tigertracks 24. :)

Whoops, I forgot about that. (I can still remember reading a short item about that in "The Edge" on the front page of The Oregonian's Living section some years ago. Sad, but true.)

Laughed out loud at this

Die-Cast!?!?!?


My die-cast toys weigh a few ounces. LOL! They are like 2 1/2 inches tall. OOOH!!

Always someone hating the toys kids get with their meals.
Last time it was over little Electronic handheld games that were given out with McDonalds happy meals. The complainers said it encouraged obesity.
Awesomesauce; Use it, you know you want to.
