Was at Walmart and decided to check their costume section for that light up Matrix accessory. Didn't find it, but they did have several other items. All rather small child sized, but interesting: G1 Optimus Prime Ion Cannon Movie verse Bumblebee arm cannon Movie verse Optimus Prime sword...

Long story short, my 14 year old son bought a PS3 at a garage sale. We've never been a gaming family, so the newest system we had in the house previously was a N64. It came with 3 sports games, but honestly none of us are sports people at all. Looking for some good game recommendations, but...

Brought to you by well-known leaker Jtprime17 on TFW2005, we have assortment information for what sounds like a new gimmick subline called Swapticons. Each toy or pack appears to somehow "swap" between two different characters linked by a common trait. What that means is anyone's guess! See...

Saw this guy in a lot of Gobots figures on ebay. Anyone know what it is? I think I had one as a kid, but I can't find any information about it.
