Transformers: Robots in Disguise - A New Autobot Mission

Quick question; do you like Transformers and/or rectangles? Then do I have something for you! Shout! Factory Kids and Hasbro Studios are releasing a DVD containing the first five episodes of Transformers: Robots in Disguise.

Ponder the ancient mysteries.

It’s set to release on October 20th, this year, exclusively at Walmarts all across the country and on Amazon online. They (Shout! Factory/Hasbro Studios) were kind enough to send a copy to my Editor and I. They should’ve known I would take a picture of Bumblebee surfing on it.

It's almost like no one actually reads anything I write. This would've been a foregone conclusion.

Do note that it also contains a behind the scenes feature, in addition to the standard moving picture sorcery contained on the disc. It also contains that delightful new plastic smell that digitally downloaded media simply hasn’t been able to replicate.

I love the smell of physical media in the morning.

DVD Synopsis:
The new mission begins as BUMBLEBEE must step up to be leader in the years after we left the AUTOBOTS in TRANSFORMERS PRIME. Summoned by OPTIMUS PRIME to save Earth from a new DECEPTICON threat, BUMBLEBEE puts his light-hearted mettle to the test after assembling a rouge team of AUTOBOTS action heroes. BUMBLEBEE must balance his job fighting off evil with being equal parts squad leader and coach to a rascally team that needs constant coaxing to learn how to work together. The results are comical when the cool rebel SIDESWIPE, elite guard cadet STRONGARM, bombastic dinobot GRIMLOCK and overly-excited mini-con FIXIT must balance keeping the team together with chasing and capturing their new enemies in each adventure-filled episode.
Cast:
Will Friedle (Boy Meets World), Darren Criss (Glee), Constance Zimmer (Entourage), Khary Payton (Teen Titans Go!), Mitchell Whitfield (TMNT) and Peter Cullen who voices OPTIMUS PRIME when he makes cameo appearances in this series.
