Cool, I wonder if my husband will see these sort of things. He works in a warehouse for Canadian Tire and he might see this sort of thing come in...or he might not, he is doing topshelf more now.

Still, it it's cool like that TF BigWheel I had when I was little, that could be cool.
That thing had a spinbreak, a little gun on the handles and best of all, the front was moulded to look like a car, and the grill flipped over to reveal a secret robot face!
Thanks news post, I total forgot about that thing till now.

Or maybe it has the simulated smell of WD-40.

I really don't know where to put this thread... Bikes count as toys, right?

I moved this to Transformers General Discussion.

I also used to assemble Bikes for a Bike shop in G.ville FL. They sold bikes to (mostly) college students around UF. These were just more expensive toys.
So, bikes are toys.
I remember those cheesy 20" BMX's that had a plastic plate in the front with the # and some logo, I can picture these the same way with the Transformers face on it and the logo on the plastic chain guard.
However, it would be kick @ss if somehow, they could transform in one way or another.

I wish they actually transformed more.
I mean seriously, 3 moving parts just didn't cut it:

I certainly do. My wife just found one on e-bay for our 5-year old son. Like all G1 - some sticker wear.

You get my vote on the toy debate!

Im guessing they'll be plain bikes with blue/red and yellow paint schemes and maybe a number plate of sorts to put on the handlebars. The "transforming bikes" aspect would be cool, even if they were those foldaway bikes that are popular throughout asia...

Actually, I might consider buying a TF toaster!
Seriously....

Hmmm...good question.Sunstar wrote:I always wondered what Decepticon air fresheners smelled like. What smells like Decepticon? Jet fumes?
Megatron: "Why are you sniffing like that around me?"
Me: "I wanna see if you smell."
*Megatron is getting angry. He raises his arm towards me, begins charging fusion cannon*
Megatron: "GET OUT OF MY SIGHT BEFORE I END YOUR PITIFUL EXISTANCE!!!"
*I leave in a hurry*
There you go.

I had the air freshners released a few years ago. The Autobot one smelled like cinnamon. I can't quite remember what the Decepticon one smelled like.
