Yes, Please: Futurama Meets the Transformers with “Transbender”

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

This brings me such great joy. Let’s hope this starts a trend of Futurama/Transformers mashups. Thanks to the artist, Nina M. on deviantART. Too bad about the name of the piece, though. “Transbender.” Sounds like a sex change that went awry. Megatrender? Bendatron? Yeah, there’s no clear win, here. Find custom Transformers toys on Ebay

Winner of Transformers: Custom-Made Omega Supreme

Friday, July 9th, 2010

Every dude who grew up playing with Transformers in the 80s absolutely coveted the Omega Supreme toy. So this stunning custom-made Omega Supreme on Ebay should prompt a notable amount of comical eye-bulging and jaw-dropping. Sadly, recapturing your childhood has a price, and that price is a starting bid of $3000. Which would have an exclamation [...]

“Hate” Doesn’t Cover It: Yoda Transformers Toy

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

This Yoda Transformers “Attack Ship”–unveiled at Toy Fair 2010 and scheduled for release in August–makes me so profoundly unhappy. If your eyes have done something to really piss you off lately*, you can make them pay the price with more images of ridiculous forthcoming Star Wars Transformers over at Transformer World 2005. * No, seriously, [...]

Thanks, Fashion Trends!: Megatron Transformers Cap

Photo Credit: Gizmodo At $49.99, I’m about $45 too much to even count as a gag gift. Via Fashionably Geek, who doesn’t like your hat if it doesn’t blind him in the sun. Find [...]

Not Much More Than Meets The Eye: Autobot Transformers Watches

Tuesday, December 8th, 2009

I have seen some poor excuses for Transformers toys before, but the digital Transformers Bumblebee Watch and Optimus Watch take the three-layer cake of shiftless design. You know the one: it’s frosted with laziness and tastes of powedered silicon from a factory floor in Shenzhen, China. For $9.99, I guess you get what you pay [...]

Robots in Disguise-ish: Transformers Ravage USB Flash Drive

Friday, November 13th, 2009

It seems the Transformers are keen on keeping up with the times. The Decepticon Ravage–formerly one of Soundwave’s microcassettes–now takes the alternate form of an honest-to-goodness 2GB USB flash drive, a more contemporary storage medium. Sure, but where were you in the 90s, buddy? I would have paid good money (well, Canadian money, anyway) to [...]
