    LOL! I really wanted them to have final CGI renders on then rather than the artwork the goes on the toy packaging. Hopefully they will add the CGI later on and those are just prototypes.

    The keychains are fake! Lockdown, Crosshairs, and Drift's faces are extremely different from their packaging art and they got Drift's "Face" from the render of the Drift Halloween Costume seen a while back. Crosshairs is hilariously fake. And Lockdowns is from The "leaked" image that that guy from Seibertron posed a while back that's now proven false since it had an entirely different look then what was on Lockdowns packaging. It's probably Photoshop'd.

    Because we didn't get those renders until the movie was just about out. Plus a lot of character recieved minor tweaks between movies, verese all of these being brand new characters. These products were likely made long before the official models were completed, and used outdated ones. I mena hell, a lot of the models you posted aren't even finished, or are old game renders verses the actual CG models.

    I'm hoping my theater will a TF4 popcorn bucket. Not sure if they are making one or not, but it would be a welcome audition to the rest of the buckets my family has. :popcorn

    Why advertise Dinobots when most promo merchandise is not Dinobot related?

    That's a lot of Bumblebee.



    Something tells me Hasbro still thinks Bumblebee is gonna sell like hotcakes.

    Hey. Hey!

    Marketing people.

    I thought we learned something about Bumblebee in the recent years. He's not the Transformers mascot. Stop giving us more Bumblebee's.

    Stop it. Just, stop. Please?

    Love the human faces! Finally! No stupid looking robots. I can handle the Dinobots having more of the animal faces.

    These look... underwhelming. Not that I expect the moon - I'd be happy with a plastic popcorn bucket.

    Are those "toppers" just plastic tops on paper cups? Cause that sounds lame. The hell am I gonna do with a plastic top and no cup???
    Huzzah! More boatloads of BB merchandise to sell at discount shops! :thumb 

    Cause BB is teh bomb, yo. Well, I can tell you my 2 yr old goes nutz for BB, so... there's your answer: Hasbro/Paramount is targeting 2 yr olds. George, can you handle this one for me? "It wasn't made for YOU."

    That's a disturbing thought... but given how BB is currently Hasbro's b*tch... :rolleyes2

    Aw man, the Crosshairs and Drift keychains look just bad. Otherwise the other stuff is cool.

    That XXL Topper Bumblebee looks more like his movie 1 design than his AOE design.

    everytime I see Lockdown I just think he looks more bland. More of a generic bot than a main character.

    Awesome!

    I'd love to get a Lockdown keychain. The other items look pretty neat. :)
