The 25th Anniversary of Transformers

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Promotional Movie Standee
The 25th Anniversary of Transformers - Classic Megatron BadgeTo be honest, The Blot had no idea that today, May 8, 2009, marked the 25th Anniversary of Transformers, one of my all time favorite toy lines/comic books/cartoons. While I’m a little late to the party, Shortpacked’s David Willis was all over it. I’m not even going to pretend I understand how the date was determined, but if you’re interested in finding out the whos, whats, whens and whys head over to Shortpacked.com and read Willis’ blog entry for today on the official launch of one of Hasbro’s preeminent franchises. While you’re over there, make sure to read Shortpacked’s webcomic for today, which is also dedicated to Transformers’ 25th Anniversary.
