Anyone know anything about this one? Any possibility of free transformers with these snacks?

What? So how do these transform? From food to crap after you eat them?

These have been around for years. They're in the shape of men and rings - put the rings on the arms and legs of the men and you have a car. Voila, instant transformation!

These things are tops. The guys who do the UK convention Auto Assembly always order in boxes of them to give to attendees. Better than a repainted Minibot!

I don't know, but according to the story, he directed the new Transformers movie!


Anyway, I've never heard of these before now (never in the 15 years they claim to have been out). Also, aside from a TF promotion, what the heck kind of name is that for a snack line? :???:

What? It's a synthetic flavouring. You never heard of that before?

I haven't seen those things in years, but I used to love 'em as a kid. The spicy ones are gorgeous.

Transform-a-snacks are the best things ever. Change from People into cars.
