The Energon Pub

I've just got back from a fruitless evening of Transformers shopping in Hong Kong, but I did find something interesting.

In one of my regular (and reliable) Transformers dealer's stores I saw a notice for the pre-order of Disney Label Donald Duck, who appears to transform into a Yellow Beetle. Due for release in August for around $30 (US)

Sorry for the poor picture quality, the image itself was blurry and I was using an iPhone to take the photo.

That's what I've been waiting for!
This is the one Disney TF I'll be buying.

Bumbleduck?

If he were another Prime-based mech, I'd call him "Donald Truck".

But I can't since they went with the Bumblebee angle this time.

There's one thing i'm still wondering. Why are Mickey, Donald, and whoever else that may have one, controlling mechs that resemble Cybertronians? Is there even a story to this line?

Aww why Bumblebee?? Was hoping they'd do a megatron next...

Ah well...

Nice to see Volkswagon and Transformers teamed up again, even if it in such a bizarre arena...(assuming this is going to be an actual release)

That is AwESOME!!!!! Donald was always one of my faves...

So if this line continues, who would be next? Gotta be Goofy... :grin:

This is a range I could really get behind. Here's hoping for a US Disney Store exclusive boxed set release or something.

Hopefully this goes on for long enough that we get stuff like a Jack Skellington or some other Disney Villains.

Come on. You know you want a Maleficent with a Dragon Alt Mode. Id like to see some villains. But with Mickeys main opponant being Pete, the big fat dog. How are they going to fit that into a Walther?

What about a Goofy version of Blaster with a Cassette form Pluto?

Now if only the Micky were reasonably priced for the size

Want!

Hold the phone.

You mean Disney actually did animation? With actual cartoon characters? Craziness!

But seriously, I think Donald could have done better than a rubbish character like Bumblebee.

Still a pass, but if they did Goofy then things might be different. Would also buy Pete as Megatron.

I picked up the Mickimous Prime on a whim since my wife is a huge Disney Fan, and I'm pretty impressed.

I'd get more of these. I like that they are using TF designs in the mix. I wish the other crossover lines would do this.

Seconded.

A bit more on topic, I'd like to see Woody-hide and Coz Lightyear

This is just riduckulous.

News Credits: 456 · by **Sabrblade** » Sat May 16, 2009 5:31 pm

How 'bout a Chernabog Unicron?

News Credits: 1082 · by **Tigertrack** » Sat May 16, 2009 5:46 pm

I'll nab him.

And I think it would be cool if they did Minnie Mouse/Arcee

Not that I wouldn't mind a Hot Rod, Megatron, or Starscream mix either.

It would be cool to see a Gizmoduck/Prowl to pull something completely out of nowhere.
