    Went to ESPN.COM today and noticed a large banner that popped out on your screen advertising the TRANSFORMERS movie. Put a smile on my face.

    I was watching a little bit of the Super Bowl last night when I went to my grandmother's for dinner... nope, not a single TF commercial to be seen. But it would have been nice to see one than all the stupid commercials I saw.

    New Sector 7 Password!!!

    EDIT:*THREAD MERGED*

    thefirst7

    Big Thanks to Senior Board Member kjeevahh for posting this in the "The advertising begins" thread!

    What are you waiting for!?! Go try it out now!!!

    http://www.sectorseven.org/

    *SPOILERS!!!!!* (highlight to read).

    up now is virtual blueprints of sector seven. you can only access the first 5 of the 7 levels of the facility for viewing.

    also available are 3 videos of:

    1. a visual documentation of the damage a "specimine" has caused (most likely skorponok). apparently the scientists at the facility ran an experiment on the creature. it was stunned for 3 seconds and then acted violently. the experiment ended up draining their backup generators and one man died in the process.

    2. the second video is a quick walkthrough of a corridor at the facility. it's not much but it does show pictures on a wall of "the first seven" men who may possibly be the founders of sector 7. there is also a wall sign that reads "the first seven." the included text talks of how they interrogated a "pizza delivery boy" who was captured after he infiltrated the facility. he claims to have no affiliation to "Agent X"(who ever that is) and he has been released (and will be monitored 24/7).

    My guess is that this person is either Spike(but he's not a pizza delivery boy) or Frenzy(who could possibly infiltrate the facility with ease).

    3. third video is of a conversation between Dr. Rebecca Howard and Alexander Powers. Powers wants 10 new portotype weapons ready to combat the invasion threat but rebecca only has 1 ready (the spec and design of the weapon are shown and explained). Powers gets angry and tells her that she can get the job done with everything she aldreay has despite the fact that Rebecca needs more materials from foreign sources. Powers needs more weapons for the military so they can fight off the invaders (most likely the decepticons). Powers warns Rebecca of what will happen if the world finds out about these "things" and that if she does not have the weapons ready in time, she'll lose her job. after their argument, powers tries to flirt with her. Rebecca gets angry and cuts off the video link between her and alexander. the end.

    Also for some reason, you can access the E-Mails of "Agent W. Snup", "Sectro 7's Security Department", "Dr. Rebecca Howard", and "Agent Alexander Powers".


    Have Fun!!!

    You missed one. There is also a new video of a conversation between a soldier and a chick. I won't go into detail, but it was interesting.

    Don't know if this is old, but the third hard drive from the right in the right corner has a .pdf file detailing an agreement between Takara and Sector 7.

    EDIT: Ha! Level 3 has a Burger King and a PX.

    It's there now. I was writing it in when the threads got merged (which deleated my thread). So then I had to go in this one and post it here.

    and on the topic of Burger King, it is known that a Burger King sign appeared in a backlot set for the film and there's a rumor that BK is doing a promotion with BK transformers movie toys. so this doesn't surprise me (plus bk did cybertron as well) and it further proves the rumor.

    This is very sweet... There's not much to the ARG though, which is what I've been hoping for since I first heard about Sector 7...

    The conversation between Powers and the doctor seemed a bit soapish to me too, it seems like the two of them have had a 'relationship' in the past... Anyone think that that might come into play later on?

    The video of the damage is very sweet... Don't know if it's truly Scorpinok though, although that's what the Scorpion icon would lead me ot believe... Someone over in Seibertron.com thought it was an experiment on the "Real Gears", bringing mechanical devices near the "All Spark"...

    Very neat thoough... Looking forward to more!

    It's some website related to the Movie... go to www.sectorseven.org, and type in either takara83 or, the more recent password, thefirst7, to access it.

    I sent an email to the "Sector Seven Security," I wonder if they'll respond..:dunce

    Pretty cool.

    I like that fact that they use the term Megaman. The arm blaster on BB reminds me of the Mega Buster. Actually, so does his helmet.

    Not that the 2 are in anyway related, but it's still a funny coincidence.
