First Look at The Fallen Toy from 'Transformers'

DateSunday, February 8, 2009 at 1:20AM
It appears that someone snuck one of the Transformers toys out of the factory and took a few shots of it well before the general public was supposed to see it. Still, it is The Fallen and the movie is called Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen , so I can understand their sense of urgency.

You can see in the shot below (and in even greater detail if you click to enlarge it) that The Fallen has a bit of an insect feel to him. I'm actually a little disappointed in that. I guess, in a way, they all kind of favor bugs a little bit, but this one's really got it going on.

The images were sent to TF08, a Transformers fan site, and not only do we get a shot of The Fallen still in the box, but also the instructions, which, I guess, are helpful if you're going to make The Fallen transform back into a big, zoomin' fighter jet.

When we get better and more shots of the Transformers toys - along with the date they arrive in stores - we'll be sure to pass them along.

Here is a genius marketing idea for these toys: Have kids drop the "Revenge of the Fallen" Transformers off a tall building, hoping to see them splatter all over the pavement below. Strangely, they don't break at all, but instead run up the stairs of said building and exact their "revenge" on the children.

(Note to Hasbro: Please mail all royalty checks for this amazing idea to Colin Boyd. He'll make sure Lost Wilson gets compensation minus his hefty yet reasonable comission. Thanks.)

My commission isn't the only thing about me that's hefty yet reasonable.

Oh god, the transformed mode on the back looks like another space plane. Maybe a space submarine.
