Snuggles In Disguise

Every now and again I'll hold my breath, cover my ears, and enter a Toys R Us. This time it was to check out the new Super Friends figures, which were adorable.

But they were totally trumped by these guys:


This squishy guy turns into this:

And his name is...Slumblebee! The cuddliest Transformer!

And just when I thought it could get any cuter, I found this guy:




His name...wait for it...is...SOFTIMUS PRIME!

Can you stand it?

Damn, I must get those. Especially with my love of the classic Bumblebee.

How does it work? Velcro?

rachelle said...

Yes. Basically you turn them inside-out, like a Popple.

Whuh...they actually transform? OH my....whuh...huh...

Great, thanks. Now I have to spend perfectly good money on a giant tranforming stuffed animal-y thing. Do they have Decepticons as well? Cause I could go for a Starscream...or Softscream or whatever they'd call 'im.

Aw, I think only the Superman and Batman ones are out so far. At least that's all that I saw. And they were the weird deluxe ones...like Batman with a helicopter, and Superman with a...drill? Maybe?
