Photo-A-Day #803 – Among the Robots

Among the Robots

Another day, more Transformers. I emptied out all the boxes. I think I have misplaced a box somewhere though. I am not sure where that box is. It has some Binaltech transformers in it though.

I’ve set up one half of the room, the Decepticon half, All the ones that are not in boxes are all over the floor and need to be put into the bookshelf. I took a bunch of pictures while I made some progress. Here are some additional images.

It was very fun looking through all my old Transformers. I played with my original ones and they have some marks of wear and tear. Stickers have been moved, I used to take them apart with tiny screwdrivers and put them back together. Some characters are missing parts but not many, very very few are missing any parts at all. I may have to search the parts dealers at BotCon to see if I can get some replacement parts.

Today’s Photo-A-Day was taken with my xshot. So how do you get your XShot discount? Head to XShot and put an XShot in your cart then just enter SparkRocks when you checkout. Hurry though, the promo code lasts till July 15th.

Transformers Movie News

The highly anticipated movie Transformers will be releasing a trailer sometime in mid-April-early May. This is huge news in the Transformers fan community because any news about huge fricken’ robots is big news. Also, Nintendo intends to create two transformers games for the Nintendo DS. One will be themed on the Autobots and the other on the Decepticons. And the games can interact with each other through the DS wireless connection.

Isn’t the DS an amazing piece of technology? I remember having a gameboy and being able to play against a friend with a wire between us. This was great for a long car ride. We used them during our trip to Florida in High School. However that isn’t so great when you want to be more than 3 feet from each other. The Nintendo DS is so much more advanced with the wireless abilities.

After reading the press release I think there may be a possibility for the DS and the Wii to interact with each other through the wireless connections in both devices. The release talks about a Pokemon game that does just that and I think that because there will be three Transformers games (1 for Wii and 2 for DS) they might interact with each other as well. I will keep my eyes open for more news on this.
