Transformers: The Last Knight Jewellery found at Walmart

That Bot/Con has the G1 style symbols instead of the normal movie ones.

What does a ricer look mean?

A "Ricer" is an owner of an overly-modified cheap (normally an import) car. Think "Seventeen year old who wants to turn their beater into a Fast and Furious car". Lots of unnecessary wings, body kits and undercarriage lighting. Now this is not to say that all cars with wings/body kits/undercarriage lighting etc. are Ricers; Obviously when those mods are applied to a car that's of quality/actually meant to go fast, when the mods are applied correctly and fit the car (as most ricer mods are DIY jobs that look awful), and when they serve a genuine purpose other than to look cool, it's justified. From this "up for interpretation" definition comes our current debate. I can see where 'jam is coming from, but I just don't see (mainly Crosshairs and Bee) as looking Riced.

Don't talk to me about cars, man. I'll end up writing essays.

"Ricer"?

That made my day lol !

I grew up with the lowrider crowd so I always found the performance import crowd to be funny as hell. We used to joke about the wings on their trunks make the cars look like shopping carts.

Italian online retailer EMP also has listed a number of officially licensed Transformers and Transformers: The Last Knight merchandise items, from caps to rings to t-shirts, mugs and posters, in occasion of the fifth film's release next week.

I'm finding myself wanting that Bee mug and Sqweeks pillow...

Jada Diecast has unveiled an additional model car inspired by the cars featured in Transformers: The Last Knight. While we've already seen cars like Barricade, Optimus Prime, and Bumblebee, the lastest character to be featured is Hot Rod! He's a 1:24 Scale Model, with an opening hood, trunk and doors. He's going to be a Walmart Exclusive and will, as with the other models, come with a collector coin.

Wait wait... just "Hot Rod"? No "Autobot"?

There is a severe and very distressing lack of Megatron plushies and pillow friends.

Maybe model cars have different trademarking rules from action figures.
