"This Decepticon's awesome. I think I am too a Decepticon because they're just so cool and rebellious and and, and um... and really really, uh, scary and intimidating, which I'm not, so I aspire to be like this." -- You forgot "genocidal", "psychopathic", "remorseless", they're basically an army of willing mass-murderers, not something to aspire to.

(No, Deadput, this isn't a legit complaint. That emoticon means I'm just being a smart aleck. So don't bother getting worked up over this.)

I agree with that statement though... the Cons have never really been role models.

Like ever that's why their the bad guys usually.

I know how I can be and sometimes deserve it but why are you taking jabs at me before I say anything?

Yeah I did find that a little strange. It's all fun and games when these characters and factions are fictional but would you align yourself with the 'Evil' Decepticons if they were real? Heck, would they even care? Probably just squish you.

Well DOTM shows that the nicest they would treat you would be as tools, means to an end and a slave labor force.

Sounds like a deal! ;)^

RIP hopes for MPM Barricade. But at least we have the MPM Prime reveal tomorrow.

Surprised, and a little disappointed, that the clip didn't include the Decepticon Day Parade from "Megatron's Master Plan, Part 2".

On day 4 of the Transformers: The Last Knight Reveal Your Shield promotional campaign, we have second cast member Laura Haddock (Vivian Wembley in the movie) declaring her allegiance to the Autobot faction, and showing off.. Turbo Changer Armor Knight Optimus Prime! Check it out below.

#Transformers: The Last Knight actress Laura Haddock got a sneak peek last week of the new Optimus Prime figure…and revealed if she’s an Autobot or a Decepticon. Are you on her side?

Really going all out on these reveals!

Although i get it now, they are advertising the toys that are out in stores now for people to buy. Thats fine but in that case I think it would have been better to just release these videos just like that and not advertise it (to TF news sites) as a reveal week for fans.

It's for everyone. It's "it's available now go get it" Which is better than introducing something to the general audience and not coming out for a few months.

"I show my Autobot allegiance by stealing things."

Sure, thats what it looks like now, but thats not what they wrote in the PR letter, nor what they said at toyfair (where they had also shown some of these toys). So like I said, my beef isnt with these videos, its with the hype they gave him. They actually contacted us, Seibertron, to let us know of this. What is the point of telling TF sites there will be a week of reveals if it wasnt intended to be for the audience of specialized tf sites.

Because PR is general. We're just on the mailing list.

The more hooks you put in the water, the more fish you're likely to catch.
And I doubt Hasbro's marketing department keeps track of what we (seibertron) know and don't know, but they do know we are a valuable and free marketing tool.

I count three Bees and four Optimus Primes (even if one is just his arm).

On the fifth day of the Reveal Your Shield promo campaign from Hasbro Transformers, we have two new clips from the official Facebook page, asking fans to once again get involved on social media by declaring what makes them 'More Than Meets the Eye'... and to encourage people to share, the whole Hasbro Brand team - including Mark Weber and Ben Montano - got involved too! Check them out below.

Whether you pledged allegiance this week to #TeamAutobot or #TeamDecepticon, we’re all More Than Meets The Eye. Show us how you’re More Than Meets The Eye!
