So... the chess set is based on the movie line aiming at 'da kidz', while the GUMMY SWEETS are based on previous lines? Wha?

MMMmmmm, the ability to bite off and chew Bumblebee's head.
How delicious.

Hmmmm... Well, I am not sure about this idea. Wish it would have been made by those Gummi Bear folks at Harbro (not Hasbro). They have the best gummis on the market.
