Now, I've never played Attacktix and probably won't but some Transformers fans apparently do.

I'm a huge Transformers fan. I am contacting you in regards to the fairly popular Attacktix Battle Figure Game, made by Hasbro. I understand that the game received mixed reviews by TF fans, but I loved the game and I know I'm not alone. As you may know, the entire Attacktix series is currently on "hiatus", with no relief in sight.

I, along with several other Transformers/Attacktix fans, created a YouTube video to help promote a petition that we created in order to show Hasbro that there is still a loyal fan base for this game.
Either way, the video has Optimus Prime, so check it out, maybe you'll even want to try Attacktix. Video after the jump.

A brief synopsis of the Transformers sequel (due for release in 2009) can be found at the internet movie data-base site...
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1055369/

Here's what it says (spoilers... kinda)

"The battle for Earth has ended but the battle for the universe has just begun. After returning to Cybertron, Starscream assumes command of the Decepticons, and has decided to return to Earth with force. The Autobots believing that peace was possible finds out that Megatron's dead body has been stolen from the US Military by Skorpinox and revives him using his own spark. Now Megatron is back seeking revenge and with Starscream and more Decepticon reinforcements on the way, the Autobots with reinforcements of their own, may have more to deal with then meets the eye."

So I have just seen the coolest thing ever -

John Mangus, who will now be known as the coolest person in Pennsylvania, has built the ultimate Optimus Prime computer case. Over the course of a year John put 300+ hours into what will now be known as the baddest ass computer case ever.

"Dear Santa...

I've been an awfully good boy this year. Please, please, please could you bring me an EXTRA special Transformer.

Signed: DarthChop"

"Dear DarthChop

Did you mean something like this...?"

Ok so it's not exactly a Hasbro TF but I want one anyway. Maybe Hasbro will follow the lead and introduce a line of actual transforming Autobots & Decepticons. As much as I love the Ultimate Bumblebee, it's not quite the same as the V-Bot, is it.

I wonder how big my stocking needs to be?

STARSCREAMTake the Transformers Quiz

Starscream

Starscream has delusions of grandeur. He chose to resemble an F-22 jet because it?s the pinnacle of human technical achievement. He serves Megatron but longs to fill his shoes.

Like Starscream, you are not compassionate and harbor evil thoughts. You want to be a leader and show some promise, but you have much to learn. In addition, you enjoy being one step ahead of your friends as far as trends and technology.
