Transformers Marketing Dives Deep ... into the Playskool Family

We're not completely sure how we feel about this Mr. Potato Head Optimash Prime (an undoubtedly subtle plug for the upcoming Transformers movie), but it's somewhere between "OMG OMG!!!1111111" and "Dude, I think I actually need one of those."

Nice one, Hasbro. Nice.

Two great toys that go great together! Beyond the marketing ties to the current movie - for anyone who was old enough to bawl when OP died in the 80's animated flick and hasn't been able to look back since...this is also a sweet and supercool throwback to simpler times.

transformer is not new actually. It takes from cartoon with similar title. I also have some autobot toys for many years before the movie release.

That is F'n Cool. I still shed a tear with OP dies.

While this one is good, I still think the Darth Vadar one they came out with for one of the recent Star Wars films was better... he even had a cool name DART TATER.
