so do I, Soundatron.

the Bumblebee/Soundwave is DEFINITELY bought, as is the Shockwave.

So getting that Monopoly. About time they did one for us TF fans.

And those Robot Heroes remind me of the Robot Masters from the Megaman series :lol:

If this is true, this sucks. and second, who would he most likely play?

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK! I fuckin hate u Michael Bay!

Welker 4eva!

this is mere speculation on my part, but they had said earlier that hugo weaving was favored to do Megatron. Hes a good actor(agent smith/elrond, V for vendetta), but imo would be suited more to the BW MEgs.

Another name that was thrown early on in production was Ludacris. Seems like a strange thing to bring up , but since Bernie MAc, Tyrese, and Anthony anderson are in the film, they would need some big name and so many celebs do animated/voice work these days.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Welker will play Starscream as a sort of ā€œgesture of good will to fansā€/weird casting Hollywood is known for.
But who knows?

found that bad boy at Hot Topic today.

$4.99, they had an Autobot one too, but the Autobots are weak, fleshling sympathisers.

itā€™s got a nice G1 feel to it (it almost looks like the same metal used in so many G1 figures).

kinda shiny, but a dull metallic look, very cool.

theyā€™re new (copyright 2007), and I havenā€™t seen anybody mention them yet.

oh, i like. that would be bad-ass to slap on your car haha

itā€™s a pin, but i agree, it would look great replacing a missing hood sigil.

they oughtta do one with a magnetic (or sticky) backing, that you can put on your trunk, a-la Jesus Fish.

Well, hereā€™s hoping the movie will lead to more insignia merchandise.

Every fucking thing I own would be a Decepticon. My toilet would be Decepticon.

Damn, looks like Iā€™m gonna have to go find me a store with those to visit.

One thing I will never forget was seeing a flat-nosed trailer truck on the road, in red, and it had the Autobot symbol on it. I geeked out when I witness it.

Revoltech Megatronā€¦ the face is kinda weird, but talk about nailing what made Megs look badassā€¦

Damn! Iā€™m going to HT tomorrow after work, for sure. QUIT MAKING ME BUY STUFF! :rofl:

If I canā€™t find them here, do you think itā€™s possible for you to pick up 2 sets of each (2 Deceps and 2 Autobots) for me if your HT still has them and I canā€™t find them? Iā€™ve got paypal/money order/you name it).

True. But you know itā€™ll get stolen somewhere.

I can drink too thatā€¦ Cheers.

no not the T.V show cheersā€¦

word.

I remember about 2 years ago, I was headed on a trip home and I saw a purple Mustang with a Decep symbol on the hood and on the side windows. Man, I wish I had a digicam then!

R.I.P. Edmiston

Damn. =( R.I.P. Mr. Edmiston.

Shrapnel + Ravage = MINE.

Guess Iā€™m heading to Hot Topic on Wednesday.

Just made my botcon hotel reservation, so I guess itā€™s official now.

A: I donā€™t have a local Hot Topic, I found it in Pittsburgh. This is the first time I have been shopping in Pittsburgh since the 8th grade.

B: Thatā€™s why I suggested a sticky back.

C: Thereā€™s one closer to home, but still itā€™s far enough away that I only get there about once every other month. I really hate to disappoint you, but I just donā€™t get to go to HT too often. Iā€™ll keep checking the site for you though, and if they come up for order, Iā€™ll make sure to post the details.
