Yes, but it's Downtown Disney's "Once Upon A Toy" store that sells the Transformers toys and merchandise.

I am going to wake up one morning and have to sport Mouse-ears for fear of being whipped into submission by a Disney employee dressed like Hook from Peter Pan!! God Help us All!!!

They own my wife too, and i believe controlling interest in my son as well. Matter of fact, they bought into the kitchen. (The DVD/Blu-Ray collection doesn't even need to be discussed)

How odd. You'd think that Disney Stores would carry TFs since Hasbro makes toys for Disney properties.

I know they carry Power Rangers, but Disney owns 'em.

And unless Hasbro decides to bring Disney Label over to the US, Disney won't be getting their hands on these. Last I checked, Disney had no deals with Takara-Tomy outside of the Japanese market.

Though, it is Disney, I wouldn't be surprised if they pulled something and got HasTak to do backflips to please 'em.

Maybe if Disney can get a Transformers ride of their own and they can use the first few months as a promotion and sell these Transformers Disney crossovers.

This thing is hideous. It just looks like Donald Duck on a skateboard with some random car parts stuck to him. At least the Mickey Mouse TF didn't have this much kibble. Look at the huge backpack this thing has. I just don't get why anyone would want this. I could understand if it at least looked nice, but this thing is just fugly, colors and mold both.

A duck... in a giant robot... on a skateboard... Are you kidding me?!

Not at all. I mean, I can see how it would seem crazy at first but the skateboard, yes, the skateboard is what makes it all make sense.

Your eyes do not deceive you, unbeliever.

Nay, they tell you truly that that is what you see.

All shall bow before the might that is Bumbleduck.

ALL. SHALL. BOW.

Oh, terror. Oh, terrible terror.

Donald's girlfriend piloting a mech resembling Optimus's girlfriend, whom Mickey's mech resembles.

Think about that for a moment.

The release of Transformers Disney Label Donald Duck by Takara Tomy has been delayed till 27th February 2010.
Takara Tomy initially announced the toy will be available on this coming December 2010.
Information from various Japanese online toy stores such as e-hobby, Japan Toys R Us, has confirmed the postponement.

Imagine the new gov't names in the future...

Disney's Democrats and Wal-Mart's Liberals...will McDonald's be the small fry 3rd party?

In Alien Resurection, a guy said Wal-Mart took over Weylan/Yutani Corporation (so it could happen)

The Duck look awesome...but I'm still not sure if I'll get it.

Sabrblade wrote:Why'd they abandon the whole Herbie look? That was awesome.

And, while the Mickey set atop his mech looks determined and serious, the Donald set atop this mech looks happy and cheerful.

its because Donald is drunk with power and can't wait to throw this in Goofy's face.

Well, I suppose that saves me a bit of money for now. But that leaves the question of whether I should wait for it to ship my Pile of Loot or not...

Still not digging the colors either, I'm afraid. I was hoping for a full Bumblebee homage in vehicle mode.

Some people just got too much time on their hands...

Get off the crack Dead Metal! Tomy got to you didn't they? How many hits did they promise you? Someone stop them before they make Porky Pig into a plane and we can no longer say "When Pigs Fly!" Stop them. Stop them now. It won't be safe to walk the streets if Porky is allowed to take off at an airport near you. Oh the humanity!

Looks good!

O no biggie I can wait for another 2 months if it means refining the final product.
