    I want some Transformer Oreos! Decepticon on one side, Autobot on the other!

    And maybe I'll skip the Hot Pockets next week over the sure-to-be-nutritious Lunchables.

    If you decode the red highlights underneath it tells their alt modes.

    Wow, so much of the general population's (as in folks who don't go to transformers boards or follow this type of stuff) first exposure to the new robot designs... will be on lunchables boxes.

    Glad someone is keeping track of all this stuff.
    Cuz I damn sure would never have been looking in the lunchmeat aisle for TF movie merchandise.

    What states have we seen these in?

    Cool stuff. I wish I'd have known to look for them when I was out tonight. So, how about pics of the toys they come with?

    Safety regulations mean we won't be seeing Transformers: The Flamethrower. Although Transformers: The Toilet Paper would be a way for them to make money from the movie haters.

    I'll have to pick these up if I see them next time I'm shopping.

    Cool, thanks! If they all have fun facts on the back like this, I want to see the rest of them! Hell, I want to see the rest of them anyway :D  Megatron looks awesome on the front of his, even though it is still his old head.

    Actually there was another Maxed out Lunchable that had fun facts on it. On the back it had some behind the scene information on it.

    Wow, a lot of digs at the lunchables. Try em guys, they're not all that bad.

    Pepperoni-flavored sausage is nothing new. Actually, theres like a billion varieties of pepperoni made from different materials. You'd be surprised how many pizzas you've had that weren't made with "authentic" pepperoni. Of course, discussion about portable versions of already unhealthy foods is a little silly... and believe it or not kids get far less healthy packed lunches all the time. So... meh, give the poor Oscar Meyer folks a break :D 

    A little disappointed with the toys, didn't expect much to be sure, but thought maybe Hasbro would come up with a more practical idea... I'd have made transformers erasers. Like the ones we had when we were kids, ya know? Fits with lunchables/school theme and might get kids talking about TFs in the schools.

    All this merchandise is making me crazy. I'm still hoping to come across a couple Optimash Primes. Poor, poor wallet -- I hardly knew ye.

    Yeah, man. I would love to see TF lunchboxes, serving trays, thermos', pencil boxes, notebooks, folders, etc...

    Who knows, we may still see those in the store yet!

    Pepperoni-flavored sausage is teh madness!!!1!1!!one

    I am digging those factoids on the back. Good way to raise Cullen's profile on the movie a bit.
