Erm, is this Optimus/Ultra Magnus head speaker thingy counted? Comes with a HK$2800 non transforming body too. Or am I a gullible peasant who just wasted 300 bucks on a nice fake bootleg? :< [[Special:Contributions/218.250.184.69|218.250.184.69]] 09:50, 22 January 2010 (EST)

I think we're missing the Optimus Prime truck mode tent. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 10:28, 2 December 2009 (EST)

:::::How exhaustive are we going to even try to be on iconic characters who have been merchandised to Pluto and back for a quarter of a century? If we're including a tent, should we include t-shirts (which would probably necessitate another 2 or 3 pages all their own)? Birthday cards? The [[Megatron (G1)/toys|G1 Megs merch page]] ''began'' in the post-Dreamwave era, until yesterday when I added that crazy gun/radio thing from 1984. This could go on for a LONG LONG TIME, so we should probably come up with real guidelines about what we are counting as merchandise and if there should be some arbitrary limit on number of items. --[[User:Thylacine 2000|Thylacine 2000]] 11:22, 2 December 2009 (EST)
::::::I think t-shirts could be grouped by a broad category. "Such and such company produced a variety of t-shirts under license from Hasbro." Maybe the t-shirt company could get their own page with a full list of shirt designs, and it's listed like "t-shirts: see (whatever the company's name is)." Birthday cards are already covered (tentatively, at least) under [[American Greetings]], although I'm only really updating that list as either I see 'em or as Lewis Brooks updates his massive massive list of them. (which, incidentally, have we referred to Lewis Brooks' GIGANTIC merchandise archive as a reference here? I've been using it for some of the ancillary stuff I was interested in...)

::::::I'm less inclined to include items that are generic "Transformers" branded things that just happen to have a character's picture on them (bedclothes, t-shirts, etc). I think we should really be looking at specific character-themed merchandise, like things sculpted in the characters' likenesses, or things that explicitly scream the characater's name at you. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 11:32, 2 December 2009 (EST)

:::::::I'm willing to make an exception for Underoos, because a) Optimus Prime underpants and b) that commercial for them which showed a kid turning into an animated Optimus Prime as he pulled them on (which I think is on youtube and should probably be documented somehow anyway). --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 14:06, 2 December 2009 (EST)
::::::::I've already documented the commercial. [[Commercial/Generation 1#1987|Last one in the list for 1986.]] --[[User:Tigerpaw28|Tigerpaw28]] 17:15, 2 December 2009 (EST)
:::::::::Have added Golden Calf Convoy but I've bungled the picture framing. With apologies. --[[User:fairplaythings]] 23:18, 13 January 2010 (EST)

In the second quarter of 2007, several online games debuted in the lead-up to the film [[Transformers (2007)]]. Each game is associated with a different partner in the [[Hasbro]]/[[Dreamworks]] film's marketing blitz. These include the following:

*[[Capture the Cube]] (Mountain Dew/[[PepsiCo]])
*[[Datafile Decoder]] (Lunchables/[[Kraft Foods Inc.]])

*[[Battle for the Allspark|Transformers - Battle for the Allspark]] ([[Activision]])

*[[Transformers: Rise of the Chevy Autobots]] (Chevrolet/[[General Motors]])

In addition, an alternate-reality game (ARG) based on the government agency, [[Sector Seven]], was produced.
