Transformer News: Hasbro Reveals Transforming Turds

by Paul

Awhile back images of some “protoform” Transformers from the upcoming Transformers movie hit the net. To the dismay of Transformer fans everywhere, these pre-Earth based vehicle forms had the distinguishing characteristic of being in similar shape to a turd.

Tformers.com has the announcement by Hasbro that these protoform figures are legit and will be released sometime in May.

While these are some pretty hideous designs, I’m still holding out hope that this can be a decent film. I’m not going to jump on the bandwagon saying how crappy the film is before I’ve even seen it. Still, things aren’t looking very good at the moment. Anyone else feel like this thing might sort-of/maybe be okay?
