Behold the delicious visage of the leader of the Decepticons!

Transformers Gummy Candy was a relatively large gummy candy packaged in a blister bubble on a 3.25 x 5" card, at a pricepoint between one and two dollars. Made in China at the behest of Hasbro's Cap Candy Company unit, it was distributed by Frankford Candy & Chocolate Company through 2006 and 2007 to coincide with the release and promotion of Transformers.

It is not to be confused with the Transformers Animated Fruit Flavored Snacks.
