I found something odd in Wal-Mart today. They had a large display with Movie Prime and Megatron BubbleBath Soap.

The best part is on the back of the robot toppers are push buttons that activate a punching feature to help knock out filth.

For cheese sake I had to get them. They had Spider-Man too, but somehow he seemed less rediculious :P

I'm not surprised, but still, words fail me. Except for one word: FAIL.

They weren't even $3.00 a piece, I'm leaving them on a shelf though as I bet that soap would give one a rash.

Yeah, TRU Australia has had them for about a month, for AU$8 each.

Punching action is quite good, and the arms can be swung around so they can uppercut, punch behind them etc.

The Bubblebath itself is plain and clear, and the bubbles last ages.

I don't care though, the more I look at Prime's punching feature, the more I think he's going for some of "Sam's Happy Time" :shock:

Oddly enough, The Megatron Bath topper you have pics of, looks very different to the one released here in Australia. Whereas you have a plain silver one, the Australian version has been painted, very poorly.

:???: You mean these could get worse! :P

***and yes any katamari game can easily consume your soul. I would love to see the Prince show up in the TF movie game(looks good, but thats about it) though as I'm not enjoying it, and that little guy could spice it up nice***

I wouldn't mind some TF flash drives. The tech is cheap enough, hell they sell them next to the Tic-Tacs at Target. I would realy like it if stuff like that was worked into the RealGear line.

Maybe if I can get some figs cheap on clearance, I'll break out my exactos and some epoxy and see what I can come up with. I've been toying with the idea anyway.

Gah! Maybe the Soundwave Flash Drives aren't that bad of an idea... Let me see what you can do with it IF you finish it.

Sure, I was actualy looking at an extra slim phone that I have and the speed dial guy. It looks like I can work it into the top half that just hangs there. If I strip off the real phones casing and use just the guts. it might work.

And as to your capital "IF", yeah, I'll probably screw it up! Thats why I'm waiting for some cheap doubles

Meh, they do this for every movie. I don't see why people are suddenly working themselves into a lather now, pun not intended.

I love those too! I have those, the lolly heads, and an Energon Candy Cube.

It erks my though that my friend Mike has 4 differnt variants of the cube!

What I like about these though over the candy guys is that they don't have bars running from their chests to their fists. I think it would be great if they did a G1 version of these though.

Another cool thing I noticed on these is that the toppers are not attached to the bottle(they are on tight though, thats why I thought it was one unit) If they did a G1 version, that would be a very nice freature to me as I am of legal age and enjoy my drinks!

Prime goes on Jim Bean, Megs goes on Jack Daniels.

Why, Jim's your friend, and Jack makes you fight!
