Because it is snowing and I'm waiting on a tech that won't show...

Wow!

I'm bored shitless so I've been looking at the deluge of Transformers-related shit coming out due to the movie.

I'm usually totally oblivious to movie-related merchandise but of course, it is impossible for me not to be exposed to this stuff in some form or other.

Crappy puzzles, useless trinkets, mugs, mini-bust crap, and even a cookie jar!

On the whole, Hasbro has been pretty reluctant to license the TF stuff and hasn't done much since G1 really.

I just foresee this shit clogging shelves much like all of the usless Superman Returns crap that can still be found on clearance.

What'll be sad if adult collectors go for all this crap.

One or two trinkets like key chains and such is perfectly fine but this deluge of product is just insane.

I suppose we have Star Wars to blame.

I mean, the world would be an empty place if they had not produced that Darth Vader on the motorcycle toy.

Along those lines. . . I think I might finally be persuaded to buy a Star Wars TF. But in my defense, it wasn't until I found out he came with a cape:
