Transformers 3: This time there’s CUPCAKES… and Snowballs

Are they all contained in parachutes to make them totally ineffective in combat?

I… Okay, I laughed a little. And I’m too tired to be angry at the moment.

Aside from the usual shameful movie tie-in, “Chocwave” and “Snowballimus” treats are doubly shameless as a contest enters with their existence as well. They slap Transformers on there for the first part of the sale and hoping to make the most of the limited window during which Hostess intends to sully itself with Transformers-based goods, there’s a promoted contest related to the treats that offers a $25,000.00 prize.

It’s fucking devious. Worst of all the advertising is getting to me as just looking at the boxes makes me plan a route to the grocery store just for these things.

Hostess has further details HERE. If you dare, that is.

I feel... dirty.

The existence of these vile things was brought to my attention by Seibertron.

I'm a lot of things; primarily I'm a massive nerd and that will define a lot of what I write about on here. In particular expect me to jabber out Transformers, Anime, Console & PC gaming, Comic books and collectible toys. Or whatever the hell I feel like! YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME!!! Outside of this I am a Writer, a Journalist, an actor, a Web Designer, a Toy collector/seller, a Blogging Coach and a Social Media Consultant. I am currently writing and co-writing numerous book projects, but my most important work to date is the book I'm finishing for my late father who passed away in September of 2011, mere months before my wedding that December. I'm also tied to upcoming films projects and have friendly connections with local conventions in Arizona having been groomed into the business by one of the managers of the San Diego Comic-con. I've worked in newspapers where I specialized in humor writing and editing for leisure sections. I've been writing and building blogs since before they had that snazzy nickname for 'em with website building tools I learned to use back in 1995. I've got a lot of experience writing about toys. Transformers are my bread and butter, but I've also dabbled heavily in Japanese toys of all kinds, GI Joe, Comic Book figures, Masters of the Universe, Thundercats, etc. I'm a child of the 80's and it shows. I know a LOT about toys and what I don't know I'm always happy to learn and later share with my fellow nerds. I review anime as I've been an avid viewer since childhood introduced to bad dubs of Grendizer, Macross DYRL, and other delights. Since then I've run multiple websites as a head writer or occasional contributing author when I wasn't the site's owner. Additionally, I have a collection of anime DVDs that spans three rooms and decades of experience with films and the film industry, albeit mostly in a supporting role. I review videogames as I've played them like mad since I wore diapers. Not the ones from last week, I mean literally since the glory days of Vectrex and Atari (early 80's) and I still go strong on multiple platforms including Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Wii, PlayStation 2, Nintendo DS, Sony PSP and several dusty old consoles still packed up. I'm a huge RPG freak with a taste for shooters, arcade classics, fighters and generally a little of everything.
