Miss out on tis two TFA the 1st time around, so the Metro 20% was good chance to get it! Megatron is excellent, his helicopter mode is great fun! Cant figure out why Prowl has a traffic light for a pet dog!!? They ought to call tis the Hype-phone! After takin over a year to reach our shores, I was done fiddling with it in 10mins. (waited 3 times longer at the telcom to be served) Cant recall any of my past low tech phones tat kept me interested for less then 10mins... No user manual was included, google for a PDF version online... (& tat is not even an official one put out by apple) Beside having the same phone as all your mates, many more uncle & unties will having the same phone too, tat just helps to up the "un-cool" factor for the Hype-phone!

Seen @ Lazarides Gallery, london, UK (until august 22, 2008) Titled "a nightmare on greek street", by british artist Ben Turnbull. Ben has created a body of work that is described by the gallery as: 'a call to action - shocking and interactive. using found objects, toy props and americana, he has constructed a world of nightmares that begs us to get involved, to come out from behind the safety of the sofa and play with the work. turnbull uses old-fashioned mould-making techniques, hand carved woodwork and a hunter-gatherer's approach in hoarding vast quantities of beloved children’s toys for a concept that ultimately wants to reach out and re-teach what’s been forgotten.'
