The secret part is because it will take you five minutes to work out what the picture on the strap is of.

Secret Access Straps are merchandise released in conjunction with Revenge of the Fallen. They're plastic straps, designed to be attached to cell phones and other small handheld devices via a small length of looped elastic. They're a product of Tomy Yujin and were first made available in May, 2009.

Much like the Danglers Collection in 2007, the Secret Access Strap Collection is available by depositing a small cash amount into one of Tomy Yujin's Gacha capsule machines and turning a dial until a small translucent sphere pops out. The sphere splits in two to reveal a strap within. Each plastic strap has the image of a character, together with that character's name in fancy lettering.

There are ten different straps to collect, but as you get a random strap each time, this can be a hit-and-miss process. The complete collection consists of:

Notes

[edit]
  • The catalogue, as shown above, directs the lucky recipient to transformers.com and tomyyujineurope.co.uk, the latter site did not work at time of release, though it does now.
  • Presumably the "Secret Access" part of the name is a reference to the blind nature of the purchasing.
  • The straps will only fit around your wrist if you are a three-week-old baby.
