    No. It seems as if they're a 2 week thing.

    Sounds like the Target Exclusive Bumblebee everyone's been mentioning. Also, I don't want to sound like a butthurt weeaboo, but those aren't Japanese symbols, but rather, movieverse Cybertronian scrawlings.

    It's Cyberglyphs not Japanese like what is written on the Movie Allspark Cube, and scored into the helmets of the Movie Transformers. or on Starscream's Tattoos even. It's also similar to the written language in Beast Wars.

    I'm not a total Transformers geek so how the hell would I know those symbols were Cybertronian symbols or whatever. They look like japanese symbols to me in the first place anyway.

    I'm just having a bad day since I couldnt even find any GI Joe figure for the past 2 days.

    So people that know Cybertronian Symbols are Transformer Geeks? I mean, we all probably are, but people helping you don't deserve your attitude.

    At least they aren't butthurt over not finding GI Joe figures.

    Yes...yes they are.

    The people who can tell them apart from japanese symbols are not however.

    When did we as a fandom become so overly sensitive? Not just in this thread, but all over the forum. So what if he thinks that it's geeky to know cybertronian symbols?

    Do you think that by chastizing him for believing that the common man will stop thinking that it's geeky to know cybertronian symbols?

    You don't have to be a "Transformers geek" to know what is and isn't Japanese.

    Anyway.

    Not Japanese.
    Not found at Walmart or TRU.
    Not new.
    Not a thread win.
