Beware of thieves!! I had a D-con magnet from the first movie campaign. I loved it. Thought I was gonna be the envy of everyone on the road. Got the magnet, placed it right on the driverside front panel of my car (cause i like to see it when I got to mah ride), and not even an hour later...gone.

I was soo po'd. But I did end up buying another magnet...it now sits on the fridge. Not as bad ass looking as on my car, but at least I know it's not going anywhere.

My wife's Con magnet was stolen off her ride, too. It at least lasted a few months, but nonetheless. Why are some people such assh*les?

So Ejector has a friend then? An evil refrigerator that withholds its goodies from us humans and doesn't let his light turn on when you open the door?

Prime Evil, see if you can get someone at a sign shop to scan it and make a copy for you in sticker form. If it dosn't have copyrights printed on it they should do it, if it does then you may have to shop around for a place that will. I don't know what they would charge you, but somewhere in the $25 range I would guess.

I have that same worry about putting an autobot badge in the front of my car. I wanted to get the genuine one that comes on the TF Camaro, but it cost $70 and I think it's only stick-on and would be gone in a flash, so I'm probably going with the cheap ones you see on ebay.

I saw a car with an actual metal insignia bolted on a few weeks ago, it was pretty sweet. Not sure where the guy got it, maybe he modified one of those belt buckles they sell everywhere around here. A lot harder to steal that I imagine.

I've thought about that, but I think it would start looking pretty bad after being exposed to rain and weather. I dunno, it might work. The Camaro one might be bolt on too, but probably the only way to find out is to actually order one and I'm not sure if it can be returned. Have to look into it.

Well, I actually did something better then a magnet later. I went to one of those air brush shops in my mall and had them air brush me a signia onto a front car plate. Paid a lil more, under $45 I think, but I knew that it wasn't going anywhere. I don't have it anymore cause I was goofin around during a snow storm and slightly wrecked into a snow mound. The car was fine, but the front plate was done.

Now, I have since come up with a better and cheaper plan. Buy a plain black plate from said air brush store, for like $10-$15 bucks, get a sticker from ebay, and just add that on. I just havn't gotten around to it yet.

My mom has that Decepticon sticker on the back of her SUV. (I put it there!)

LOL does your mom even know what that sticker is?

As much as I love Transformners I think this is going overboard. Id rather invest in a small 24K Decepticon logo for a chain. Now thats swagg !!!

G1 magnets are lookin' pretty sharp

Wow I only just noticed that they changed the eyes on the movie logos. As if i never compared the original to the movie logos before. Thats gonna bug me every time I see something movieverse from now on.

^ It's bugged me ever since I first saw the Movie insignias. I like that they've started to do them in the correct colors again (ROTF Lockdown), but I still hate the eyes.

Really? I'd rather have a symbol on my car than around my neck. I guess that's just me though.

Meh, I prefer the 3M backed metallic 3-D emblem I picked up a few years ago on eBay. Barely cost me ~$15 after shipping for a pair of them.

That store called 5 below has them. I got both for 6 dollars. And they probably like 6 inches tall so they rock. Dcons all the way. Tried to get the old lady to put 1 on her car and she said I need to get her a twilight magnet. Lol
