Transformers figure turns 'Game Boy' into 'Game Bot'

At $6.99, we're pretty sure it's neither a functioning handheld game system nor a functioning micro killing machine. Drat.

Dammit!
Here I was hoping for more cool Transformer gadgets, like the Soundwave MP3 player, the Optimus Prime iPod dock, and the Frenzy/Rumble headphones...

At great expense and at last minute, the headline changes to 'Transforming llama turns Game llama into Bot llama'

Did they build that out of surplus Sega hardware parts or what?
looks like the Dreamcast controller and the Game Gear mated, and produced this thing

And speaking of tiger handhelds, couldn't they have made it a cheapo LCD game as well? I mean obviously a GBA-quality handheld is out of the question, but surely some tiger-handheld style functionality could've been added?

What happened to the quality of transformers. These are effin' Go-Bots, don't even say transformers with this slop quality.

I'm FAILRY sure that's a Hitchhiker's Guide joke.
The whole "sacking" thing, I mean.

Note to Self: Kidnap Ben Heck and force to build Transforming GameBoy.
Andrew @ Jun 12th 2007 1:30PM
No, Shiro. It's not.

Dark Tetsuya:
Considering how tiny the Game Boy micro is, I'm sure a Transformer of slightly larger size could be made out of one.
