Hey everyone.

I got back from Burger King and they have a new toy promotion going on for flip transformers. THey are basically TF heads of the movie cast that have a body that flip out of them. I got Optimus and Megatron.

I wish I could post pics, but I don't have a camera near me. They are actually pretty cool figures if you like SD type stuff. I'd definitely recommend hitting up your local BKs for them.

Club BK has been updated with images and info on their Transformers DOTM Flip Out toys that will come in their BK Kids Meals. These are basically large heads with flip bodies. In addition to the flip out feature each figure also features a gimmick, see images and description below.

Soundwave's gimmick is apparently being covered with puss-filled green boils all over the expanse of his body. :SICK:

Pretty lame, but I kinda want the Shockwave one.

Starscream is... just... waking up. Needs his morning coffee. :lol:

Here's my thoughts on each figure...

Optimus : His head looks fairly nice and detailed for a kid's figure.And the Autobot symbol on the middle of his chest is a nice touch.

Bumblebee : Again a nice headsculpt,atleast better than Deluxe Cannon BB. His body looks fairly well proportioned.

Ironhide : The head looks "okay"...But the round thingie on either side of his head(his ears maybe >.<?) looks weird. The body...Meh.

Ratchet : A glow in the dark Ratchet...His head looks horrible but that's just mainly cause the CGI head sucks...

Megatron : I actually kinda like the head. It's not too big and the body looks kinda G1 Megatron-ish.Again...Just "-ish".

Starscream : MY GOD !!! His head looks so damn big and HORRIFIC !!! His body is a meh.

Soundwave : The best headsculpt out of all the BK TF IMO. But he looks like a prototype with that bland white colour all over him.

Shockwave : Hate the lavender purple colour >.<. If it were darker purple,that would look nice.His body looks like a bunch of wires coiling around each other but the head looks kinda nice

.

Heh look at me...Just mere kid's toys and I actually give each one an opinion X_X...Well I think the best is Soundwave. His head is awesome

i think that is an expresion given when one hears someone saying something way too expected.

and if i am wrong at least he will wake up inside BK to enjoi a "joe"

"push the button on megatron's chest to hear an awesome sound!"

and before a quote is made YES I KNOW IT IS PROBABLY A GUN FIRING!!!

The only one I could see myself wanting is Soundwave.

i would chop off the bodies and take the heads and put them all on sticks, then reenact
"Prime of the Flies"

"Gay"...Define gay? I'm just surprise that you would see "gay" in a kid's toys...Shame on you...

''gay: completely stupid.'' sorry teen speaking

Way to be exceedingly offensive and insensitive on a public forum.

The only one I could see myself wanting is Soundwave.

i apologize to anyone offended, i am sincerely sorry. :-(

Why is the projected Decepticon symbol red?

by **gothsaurus** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:31 am

Nice of you to apologize. It's tough when words are so deeply embedded into our slang.

by **Starscream's Girl** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:43 am

Now that I've seen them, I....must...have!! I want them, all of them!! I like Prime and Bee the best, and a glow in the dark Soundwave would be cool to have. So I'm taking this is going on now then? I so want to go to BK now.

Hey Prime and Megatron are available still. I'm going to BK today as they got their next shipment in.

We will see 2 new ones today and 2 more will be released on Thursday. (It's fun to learn the shipping schedule)

by **gothsaurus** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:46 am

Okay, I'll excuse the green globules since they glow in the dark. :grin:

, would have been nice if they could have used more than two colors for him, but whatever.

It's cool. At least you're willing to apologize(and hopefully be more aware of it in the future), which is more than most people do when it's pointed out.

In all honesty, thanks for being mature about it instead of getting defensive.

Shockwave looks like someone poured a boat-load of lemon juice in his eye. :lol:

i have to admit these are better than the ROTF toys. Only one i want is optimus since hes the only one that looks ok, soundwave is a maybe just because hes soundwave but he looks like crap. McDonalds needs to be given the the rights to do the toys again cause every time they have the toys were pretty good for happy meal toys, BKs have always sucked.
