    I'm too keen on the idea of the headphones attaching so blatantly to form a "head" for the robot mode (that's how it looks to me from that tiny pic anyway - If I'm wrong then fair enough!).

    Smaller "In the ear" phones that became engine nozzles (or something equally inconspicious) would have been preferable for me.

    Oooh, nice. Another Decepticon Real Gear is always good. Not sure why they didn't just call it Laserbeak, though...

    It looks more to me like the headphones form a big gun on top, and you can see the head folded up behind the screen on the MP3 player.

    All the Real Gear Transformers have names based directly on something to do with their alternate mode.

    Exactly, so the Decepticon's name is Booster and not Laserbeak.

    On a side note... MUST OWN!!!!

    Once again, Real Gear makes homages to G1 toys while the regular movie toys fail to do that...

    I mean, so far we have a Reflector, a new Scopeman, Laserbeak and that Gameboy looks a bit like Soundwave... Laserbeak (Booster) even has the traditional red/black/silver colors... From the small pic on the box, I can see he has an orange beak and at least one clawed foot... :)  I hope we see more of him soon!

    Well it certainly looks funky but there isn't really much to go on.

    Very nice. Still undecided if I'm going to get the "real gear" stuff, but that's more of a funds for the next year issue than anything else.

    looks like to me that the real transformers here are these bots, Real Gears, and not the P#ssy, insectoid looking main characters from the live action movie. We'll at least Hasbro can make a profit even if the movie SUCKS!
