Whilst at our local Argos this morning we noticed that the Titaniums as well as Classics Jetfire are still listed as out-of-stock, but what we also found out was that they are still selling the several Cybertron toys and have Unicron, Skywarp and Downshift in stock.

Michael Bay comments on Transformers Teaser Trailer Download Record

Michael Bay has posted comments on his message board regarding the Transformers trailer record.

"I had no idea Transformers would have so many fans around the world. Yahoo reported to Paramount, that the Transformers Trailer was the most downloaded trailer ever on Yahoo. It had the most the first day, and the most the first week. It beat Spider Man 3 that up till now held the record, we beat them by over 2,000,000 streams. What we found interesting was that an equal number of women viewed it as men. Go figure. Vote to keep Die Hard July 4th!!!!".

Of cause there is no actual way for Yahoo to tell the gender of the viewer so it is interesting that such a statistic would be published.
