    I'd wear the CRAP out of those Megatron shoes.
    Even without the lights!

    And I'm not even a shoe guy!

    Why is an Adidas photographer better at posing transformers than Hasbro’s stock photographers?

    I'm a sneakerhead that's also a Transformers fan. But it seems like every time they cross over, it's never quite to my taste.

    Well that was disappointing. They're painfully generic looking sneakers with some little light-up doodads on the tongues.

    Also why would the Megatron ones be black instead of silver?

    What's a bit weird is that the Prime shoes are clearly movie based with the red flames on blue.

    The Megatron shoes would look more in theme with G1 Meg if the plastic lace holders and extra trim bits were gray so as to contrast against the overall black color...Then again, I don't design shoes or are a part of that whole scene, so what do I know.

    [EDIT]
    ...And for some reason, upon saying that, I immediately begin digibashing a pair of shoes...

    ...I've been oddly compulsive with my creative expression as of late.

    The Prime ones look pretty meh. The Megatron ones would look good if they didn't come with that light thing.

    As much as I REALLY want those Megatron sneakers, I SEVERELY doubt they’ll have ‘em in my size, and even if they do, they’ll probably be too expensive

    Right? I’d love a pair of each but two pairs of 14’s, while not crazy large, would likely be more than I could justify.

    Especially since rarely wear runners.

    Yeah, I wear between 15 to 17 depending on who makes them and how wide they are so there is no chance in hell of me being able to get these

    Cool, I like these. Reminds me of the Prime and Bumblebee shoes that were sold before that my son and I got. I might get Megatron this time.

    This is a board dedicated to respectable adults who enjoy 35-year-old toy commercials and buy toys intended for children ages 3-12. Not sure I get your point ;)
