Got one of those decals off of Ebay and put this on after a complete debadge. Pretty impressed with the look of it. My only complaint is that it is a little small and hard to see from far away, but I also like the fact that it it isn't so in your face/obvious. you really have to be looking for it to be noticeable. Dunno how long ill leave it on for, but for now its the Decepticross!
LOL!!! Nice job Phantom! Looks sharp!
The necessary inquiry has been made. Will advise...
VERY NICE!

I just hope, that if they someday decide to do a G.I.Joe movie, a decent director gets the project, because as much as I love Transformers, G.I.Joe was my favorite.

Ignorance is bliss and I don't know who Michael Bay is... but Transformers = good entertainment.

Awww, c'mon Bart...isn't not seeing it betraying your childhood more so than not liking it?
I went to see it with more anticipation than any Star Wars nut waited for Ep's 1-3, and although I would have changed a few things about it if I could, a lot of it was equally impressive. And I think hearing Optimus' original voice really secured the nostalgia of the original generation.
Besides, It could have been a LOT worse...it could have been John Woo.

If you can get the Police and Fire that would be cool (I'd get a couple of each).
BTW - I saw the movie on opening night and was surprised at how good it is - they even used the original cartoon voice for Optimus Prime and the other autobots and decepticons were pretty much in character from the TV show. The fight scenes were incredible - nuff said!

Nice find Johnny! I will see if they can get those, too.
Oh man, John Woo is another of my most unfavorite directors. I actually liked some of his earlier stuff (Hard Boiled, etc) but after I saw Mission Impossible, I was done with Woo.
I think the Transformers movie will have some good action and f/x, but I just hate Michael Bay's spoonfed Hollywood garbage so much, that I refuse to see it. I know I will be disappointed...

PS - I can't stand David Lynch either....
