From phone to weapon? I'm sorry, but the Deployers from Beast Machines were better executed than this.

The dagger reminds me of that sword in Energon. The other thing reminds me of nothing.

They're alright I guess, but with technology and stuff today, it would be cool if you could plug an ipod or something like that into it.

Yeah, why don't we get the MP3 player Soundwave or docking station Prime released stateside instead of this crud.

This crap ought to work out great if the Transformers ever want to act out Lord of the Rings.

Excellent, teaching kids early about the benefits of concealed weapons. I especially like that the kid on the package is decked out in a black trench coat. It all just makes me want to laugh.

And speaking of TF and Lord of the Rings, did you happen to see Clerks 2? Maybe Hasbro IS trying to cash in on the suggested crossover.

I'm so glad that hasbro devoted their design engineers time designing phones and binoculars and transforming toothbrushes. If they didn't have that to do they might have designed more alternators. (shiver)

Better yet, Kevin Smith gets the rights from Hasbro to make the movie "Gobots: The K-Mart of Transformers".

Ill get the dagger to go with the energon sword but the pda looks like crap. They could've done a better job on both. These are going to coast around $15-$20. I doubt they'll be $10. How much did armada laserbeak coast?

Holly crap batteries are included!

If not, the "Try Me" wouldn't work.

I didn't need to see that.

Why would anyone buy an advanced device that transforms into a primitive weapon? It's just retarded. But then again... i bet after the movie is out who cares right? Kids wil scream at any piece of crap they see with the transformers logos on it... I can almost hear them already... *shivers*

They look more like knock off toys you see on the toy aisle at the grocery store.

wtf are these craps?!? It is just sad how they are abusing the name of the franchise to such a degree. I'm a big fan of tfs but i'm also a steadfast fan of good quality toys. These are the direct results of everyone in the toy industry trying to get a piece of the pie with the movie coming out. Shame on them.

They're not out of Impulse-buy territory, but past that I can't see myself going for them...

The only real appeal they have for me is that they look to be about the right size for the Real Gears to lug them around as heavy weaponry, and since Booster is the only Real Gear with a weapon, that might actually work for me.
