Smeg, man, when those hit my TRU I'm grabbing them for sure. I'll eat the candy and make me a Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots ring.

They would be fun until the candy was gone or they broke. Hard to say which would happen first. But to each his own. Have fun with them. I'll spend my 10 bucks on ebay and pick up some g1 toy. I just won Trypticons car + 2 parts to the tank for just over 10 bucks. I'll be much happier with that than 5 dollar lollipops.

I love it. The look like Action Master Optimus and Megatron!
At least they are not based on the movie molds. I think no one would want to stick movie Megatron in their mouth! He looks like gnarled up braces.
