    Soundwave looked like he turned into an I-pod, and Prius Maximus was gay! I like Frank's work. I'm always a fan of people who do impressions.

    Thank you, YouTube!

    That was rather amusing. Like a crazy design mishmash of Go-Bots, KO's, and TFs and full of funny gags.

    Interesting that it's already dated with the riff on high gas prices. I got gas for $1.33 last week.

    Yeah, definitely a little Al Gore-ish.

    Frank's impression of Prime was kinda lousy though-- sounded more like his Al Pacino.

    Definitely intentional -- from the YouTube member who posted it: "I made Soundwace an iPod instead of a boombox." It was produced by a freelance animator who has worked on several Cartoon Network shows.

    I also wonder if the licenseplate "HYB*RID" was a deliberate reference -- a pun on "robots in disguise".

    I think this could actually be frontpaged, since it was posted by an official source. Obviously they allowed him to retain certain rights on it to use in his portfolio.
