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


Hasbro has unveiled a series of "Real Gear Robots" as a tie-in to the Transformers universe. What caught our eye particularly is the POWER UP VT6 who, when not moonlighting as a Decepticon, spends its days as the hybrid of a Sega Game Gear and the bottom half of a Nintendo DS.

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

(Rest assured, our headline writer has been sacked. Those responsible for sacking the people who have just been sacked, have also been sacked.)
