Title: New Transformers Toys That Give Birth
Post by: gabumon on October 16, 2017, 07:57:45 AM: Oh boy. Talk about odd. The new line of Transformers come with this "power armor" that connects to their Torso. and INSIDE the power armor is another little teeny transformer action figure.

At least they allow both "male" and "female" characters to gestate the baby. :shocked:
:lol:

Post by: gabumon on October 16, 2017, 10:18:38 AM: ya this "Power of the Primes" is a revival of the Power Masters. But instead of going the obvious route where the little guys turn into the Engines of the vehicles... they turn into meaningless cubes that get inserted into various points on the toys. Boring.

But the "Robo Babies" take on it.. at least has tabloid shock factor going for it. XD

seriously though, robots turning into little engines is much more fun. I think these are gonna dead pan with the target audience.

Post by: gabumon on October 16, 2017, 12:17:43 PM: I think they come out around December.

sorry the torso armor compartments are about 1/2 down in that link above.
Update: added a screen grab above.

Post by: Mewtwofan1 on October 16, 2017, 08:46:18 PM: :blink: I'm actually not that disturbed. Don't know much about transformers, but if a robot can give birth to its own genetic related child...I'm okay with this. Surprised, but okay. Brings up many questions about transformer reproduction though...

Post by: BlackCurtains on October 16, 2017, 09:14:20 PM: Hey, when I was a kid I had dinosaurs that they themselves turned into eggs. They were really cool! Anyway, if a dinosaur can birth itself, why not a robot? :lol:

Post by: bright rabbit 1 on October 16, 2017, 10:34:03 PM: I'm worried that this is going to go down hill. Remember Midge in the Happy Families line, she came with a baby inside her (bump included). And adults were disturbed by it.

They might not be a bump on the female robot, but I think mum's of children will be disappointed.
