Some interesting new auctions have surfaced on eBay for some new, never-before-seen Halloween costumes based on characters from the new <a href="http://webmaster.transformersmovie.com/click.html?c=FLINCG" target="_blank">Transformers Movie</a>. They are not the same Optimus Prime costume we've seen before, showcased on the <a href="http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=News/Item&newsID=B90D4249-D56F-E112-4BF8B7D470EEB1B0" target="_blank">official transformers site here</a>, but entirely new costumes featuring both Bumblebee and Megatron (with old, un-used head design).

See the various auctions for these kiddy-sized costumes...

Real fans make their own costumes! (remembers Optimus Prime suit he made a few years ago)

Granted it's easier to build a blocky TF suit than it is to make one of a newfangled 'twisted-metal-pieces-everywhere-`cause-it's-supposed-to-look-cool' TF suit... but I'm sure that people can do it!

Isnt that long sleeved Megatron suit part of the "reversible costume" set that has been out for a while?

Megatron on one way, but flip it inside out and it's Prime???

Nice to see they're still using the old Megatron head design... apparently some people just didn't get that memo...

That megatron costume really creeps me out.

WTF? Does that first kid think he's Superman? Optimus Prime doesn't fly!

I like that OP costume better than the adult Target one. Oh, to be 4 feet tall again...
