Movie: Transformers – Media Blitz

If you have been reading my blogs then you know that I am a huge Transformer’s fan. I have had a countdown on my blog The BenSpark since I heard about the movie being created back about 2 years ago. The release date is fast approaching and today the Internet was abuzz with all sorts of Transformers Movie related news. Here are some links to the best stories I read today.

AICN – Review of Test Screening – If you want cursing and possible spoilers read this. I for one do not but I offer it up anyway. I read a bit but gave up because the reviewer was pretty crass to me. This information was courtesy of Seibertron.com

Hasbro’s Press Release regarding new Transformers.com website and upcoming products – Basically a press release of the website overhaul and teaser that more stuff is coming. – Courtesy of Seibertron.com

Press release: Battle for The AllSpark ignites online with launch of Transformers: The Game website – This is for an online game that will be pretty sweet however there is already a great online game at Seibertron.com. But also on this site I was able to pre-order the Transformers game for the Nintendo Wii. That is supposed to come out June 26th. So I can play it two days before I see the movie on June 28th at BotCon 2007 – Courtesy of Seibertron.com

Transformers.com at Hasbro gets Facelift – The official Transformers Website at Transformers.com has been redesigned to coincide with the movie and the new line of toys. – Courtesy of TFormers.com

Tears of a Robot in Disguise

Why is Optimus Prime Crying?

Today I moved my desk at work. I packed up my Alternators and subsequently all of Optimus Prime’s troops, his friends. Prime was left all by himself.

Optimus Prime: Where the heck did everyone go?

All of his troops were gone and so were the Decepticons.

Optimus Prime: I’m stationed in a new location, my troops are gone, but then so are the Decepticons. Better hang onto my blaster for good measure.

Yep, Optimus is my only transformer to be allowed at my new “temporary” desk. I should be in this new location for a couple of months before we all move up to the 3rd floor. I’ve got Christine and Jim in front of me, Dave to my right and Mike to my left. Should be an interesting couple of months. We are all going to be working closely together.

I also picked Optimus Prime as the Photo-A-Day today because today I got a ton of new news from the world of Transformers. I wrote all about it on BenSpark 2: Electric Boogaloo. So what do you think of my attempt to make Optimus Prime cry oil tears?
