so with the hit summer blockbuster Transformers 2 that just came out still in hype.. i'll continue my NERD fest. and i'm not embarrassed to do so. after the first film came out, my sister went out on a limb and bought a very expensive Bumblebee figure, one that actually transforms, lights up, talks, plays music, and moves animatronically. it's actually a pretty cool collectors item and stands in robot form over a foot tall.

check out the figure in car form. it's surprisingly detailed:

and fully transformed.:

so nearing the end of Leo's party at paulo's house, Rommel (@88rj888), Jay (@JaEyJaEy) and I went to the 7-11 by my house to satisfy our random SLURPEE craving. all i wanted was blue (BLUE DRANK!). but to my surprise, 7-11 is promoting the upcoming film Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. and as a promo for the movie, they are selling collectible slurpee cups and straws featuring your favorite autobots and decepticons. since they didn't have my favorite of the lesser popular Ironhide, i went with my other fave, Bumblebee (yeah i know everyone loves him, but i dont automatically hate something just cuz it's popular.. that's lame).

anyway, here is the cup/straw:

the straw even has the traditional Slurpee spoon!
