Cool TF watches return. I used to have a pair of TF watches back in the 80's A Red Autobot one and a blue Decepticon. They were really cheesy transformations, just pull out legs and arms, pop up head. but they were really cool. Can't really say if they were actually licensed Hasbro products, or just some knockoff with an autobot and decepticon logo plastered on. but i loved them.
I'm sure to get one of these.
The controller, not so much. Reminds me of transmetals Optimus Primal.

The time should have been either 7:47 or 7:04:07, if it's a locked-in time... or it should have been an actual working LCD watch. The core body looks like it's solid enough to accomodate a functional clock - perhaps this prototype/test shot just has a printed plug as a demo, instead of real electronics.

Agreed 100%. I was really hoping this was a working watch. I highly doubt they will make a working one, but why the hell not? Any way the bot modes seems pretty solid for the watch and the controller.

My thoughts exactly! I really like that watch TF! Too bad it doesn't actually work! Not that I'd wear it, but it would make a nice desk clock!

Edit: The controller will definately be a must-have for me though. His bot mode just seems so cool, and the ridiculously pointless alternate mode just makes him a great candidate for random trinket #1,023 in my home.
I'll set him up with G1 Soundwave and Perceptor.

The controller not so much. If they would have given hin actual hands, that is, made it so they were a more traditional "fist" that would pop out instead of just the ends of the controller turned over, I would be more interested.

The simplistic designs that lack all the "dangerous and alien spiky bits" of the actual movie figures works in their favour.

I can see it. He does appear to be a little ape-like in his appearance and the head does resemble Apeface from a distance.

I had those watches also...i believe they were actual licensed products...but then again i was a kid, i wouldnt have known.
If the final product does have a functional display i will definately buy it. i need a new watch with a seconds display for work and i can just see this guy cruisin' around the hospital on my cart

The watch looks good but of course it would be better if it worked.
Maybe it wouldn't be too hard to kitbash the internals of a real watch into it though...
