This is awesome. I might just get this since my 2 year old daughter is enjoying Play-Doh. She'll have fun making "Daddy's Mans" (as she calls Transformers) with Play-Doh.

It is a world transformed, where nothing is as it seems, and ANYTHING goes...

Actually, I believe it was Floam that got recalled and they don't sell anymore (or one of those foam-type products). I believe it was causing serious problems being inhaled or something along those lines.

What, that he actually has Dinobot underwear or that he thinks it's better than this Play-Doh set? The only reason I'm not sportin' Prime or Megatron underwear is that I'm not paying the obscene amount they were charging for an article of clothing that nobody else sees.

That sounds right (about the Floam). Somewhere I still have the recipe for the first Play-Doh (it's changed slightly over the years) and that stuff you can eat all day long and it will just leave you real thirsty and maybe give a slight stomach ache because it will sit in your gut like a brick for a while. I've made a couple of BIG batches before and you use food coloring to get your colors so you can mix custom tones that the company doesn't sell.
Oh man, now I REALLY want to get this set and make a big ol' batch.

That's a pretty novel take on the transformation process. I approve.

Maybe i'ts afun idea for young kids, but think this is the most laughable merchandise ever carrying the transformers name. :lol:

-sigh- Hasbro must either be desperate or running out of ideas. Or both, same thing. But it does look pretty cool. Perhaps there might be more where that came from...
