Name of Real Gear Watch Revealed

"The watch is named 'Meantime', perhaps after the Greenwich Mean timezone?"
I was thinking that they just decided to use the word 'meantime,' but the GMT is a good guess to.

I have the feeling that they've run out of good names. Alot of the real gear names suck.

Just the names? I think this whole line is a little off the deep end. And I thought that Lucas and Jackson were merchandising whores!

It's so cute, I think my heart is melting for these litte guys,

He's a Decepticon Watch. He tells the time and he is mean. He is Meantime.

I can see the list of repaints...Goodtime the Autobot, Badtime the Decepticon, Oldtime the Kup homage, Downtime the battle-damaged, Sexytime with a big moustache, Outatime dressed like Marty McFly...I could go on.

ahhh, rumble has a codename, perfect for when royal freakin mail finally delivers him. you know who you are postman.

He's probably named from the phrase "in the mean time", as in the time between right now and whatever upcoming event referred to.

Also the perfect time in which to get in a few rounds of Hungry Hungry Hippos.

I like the Laserbeak Real Gear figure (Booster X38 or whatever he's called). That's about the only Real Gear figure I'm interested in getting.

He's a bad MF. They wont call him Goodtime, would they? It sound very logical to me.

Really? I think the Real Gear names are some of the best - they show the most originality and turn some ordinary word into something kinda cool... y'know, the same way TRANSFORMERS works? By turning something ordinary like a watch or a phone into something cool like a living robot?

I think Meantime is one of the most unique and clever Transformers names ever.

Much more original than say... Fangry, or Horri-bull.

You forgot Bedtime and Hightimes! =P

As for the real gear names they do suck. High Score 100? Video Games now never keep score!

Yeah hightimes has the alt mode of a bong, and bedtime turns into a futon for you to use after hitting hightimes right?

I would buy those right away!

Another Stupid Real gear name....

Bad name or no bad name, I'm still buying him!

Meantime! I love it!

Too bad it's not Time Warrior.

So, the controller one is obviously Beastbox.

When is this due out? I didn't see any of them with the rest of the real gear at walmart..

Clever, Still, I wish he was an actual watch, the tech isn't that hard to adapt to make it happen, and that body seems to have little if anything to do with the transformation so why not?

Booster (laserbeak) is awsome. I also got zoom out (reflector) and hes cool too. The hole line is sweet. I just dont like some of the names. Its like the guy picking the names didnt care and just look at the figure and said "well its a phone so lets call it speeddial 800 because i cant think of a cool name or an old Tf that looks like it." Theres just no effert in some of these names. The only good ones are longveiw, booster, and spyshot. They sound like TF names. The rest are lame. They are to long and the numbers are not needed. Im just going to rename them like im doing with most of the movie figures.
