    hmmm Pre-Orders =/= Crowed funding. I think Sony pulled this with Shinmu they had all the money basically ready but used crowed funding as a way to drive hype and get some pre-orders in.

    Also if this is just a smart watch... why not just make it a watch?! if the straps were nicer on that old movie toy I'd totally use it.

    probably best it\'s not a real phone.  I can imagine the chaos of trying to get him transformed back to a phone as someone is calling.

    \"crap, sorry i missed your call, i was transforming my robot back to a phone so i could answer it\"

    This.

    Plus, I'm going to PERSONALLY BOYCOTT these specifically. I'm sick and tired of the Optimus/BB/Megatron trifecta. MAKE SOMETHING NEW OR GTFO! :banghead: 

    (For a moment, I was excited about a Sunstreaker phone... nope. False alarm. Because collectors need a BB phone. :rolleyes2 )

    Considering these phone-things are apparently the same mold with different heads, They oughta just include interchangeable heads for anything that vaguely fits. Got a yellow-&-black phone? It can be Bumblebee, Movie Bumblebee, Sunstreaker, Drag Strip, Hubcap, Cheetor, BW Buzzsaw, BW2 Thrust, Sunstorm, Steeljaw, or 2003 Universe Fire Truck Optimus Prime!

    I think they are brilliant! Loving the Megatron and Prime looks pretty good too I suppose

    TakaraTomy yes.

    Yea my friend from Japan said the same thing. They last longer & they (not sure if he meant Japan, or flip-phones) are more money efficient, I guess. :/

    TakaraTomy is behind it. Or least that's what they are saying

    NICE!! Someone that gets it! Right on miss! Lol I like Megatron one alot. I'd pitch in $25 to $30 bucks to get one.

    Device Bot with actual working gimmicks:
    Blaster's Notebook (USB hub)
    Ravage and steeljaw's USB memory
    Dinobot & Trypticon: Mouse
    Soundwave's mp3 player
    Optimus' Mobile phone (blue tooth receiver).
    Optimus's Pen
    That's 6.

    If you included Perceptor's microscope, and those old transformer's watch, that's 10.

    Future idea:
    Can we get a Reflector's webcam? I do not mind lack of articulation but it needed to transform and work.

    Well Cap, Shoes, Sega, PS1 are just looks.

    Right? I get that OP, Bee and Megatron are the popular bots, but this idea screams Soundwave and Blaster. Trukk, not monkey, not shoe, not game console, not pen, not phone. Not Pen Pineapple Apple Pen, either.

    They're not wrong!

    This is one of those TF items I look at and initially think it's rubbish, but the more I look at it and the more I read about it, it becomes a must-have item! Trouble is, I have no idea how to get one.
