Online retailer Amazon has put up a preorder for a little bundle of Transformers goodies: a 48-page book with images from the original Generation One cartoon with sounds, and a bust of famed Autobot leader Optimus Prime with light-up eyes! The preorder is listed at $11.66 USD.

Relive the galactic battle between the Autobots and the Decepticons with one of Transformers' most beloved characters -- Optimus Prime.
This officially licensed kit includes:
Optimus Prime bust with light-up eyes
48-page full-color mini book with quotes and images from the classic 1980s cartoon


No images as of yet, but stay tuned to Seibertron.com for an update!
They call me “Tanker Chungus”!

Don't expect anything crazy here - these Running Press kits are tiny. The boxes are about 2 x 2 x 1 inches.

Here's a couple examples of what they did for Batman kits:

Judging by the price, I figured it would be a little on the small side.

Yea, it's to be expected.

Not to say it can't be cool desk fodder - I have the Bat Signal, which lights up, and it's a neat little set. Very much a stocking stuffer type thing.

Did the Batman books have sound chips? When I read the word 'quotes' in the amazon listing I thought of printed quotes not sound.

The Batman kits don't have sound chips. It's probably just printed quotes.
