Advantages: An impressively accurate and very well made re-issue of a classic retro toy. Disadvantages: The "dilemma" ... should I open and play or keep sealed and display ???
of toy technology. Robots that "transformed" into vehicles was probably the coolest toy concept to have hit the shelves and for those of you lucky enough to have owned some of the first generation Transformers toys you would have been the envy of your friends !!!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY FROM THE AUTOBOTS !!!
1984 was a long time ago but to mark that special anniversary Hasbro have released a commemorative 25thAnniversary Edition of the greatest Transformer of all time ... Optimus Prime !!!
And, whilst the toys based on the CGI created Optimus Prime from this summer's blockbuster may look impressive nothing can quite beat the retro feel of the original Transformers toys ... and this Optimus Prime toy has been accurately produced so that it has both the look and feel of the 1984 original.
MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE ...
Advantages: all the episodes! Disadvantages: nothing original extra :(

Although through all of the series's not once do we actually see any of them spend any time at thier institution, or working, nor ...
Advantages: Still rocking, some good lyrics Disadvantages: A bit cheesy at times and some of the tracks are a bit poppy
Along Came A Spider is Alice Cooper's 25th studio album, released some 39 years after his first album "Pretties for You", I'm a big Alice Cooper fan and have every one of his albums and the fact that he experiments with different sounds occasionally means that they're not that good or are completely different to what you expect but most of them grown on you within time.
So far this millenium has been a bit of a mixed bags - whilst I thought it started off strong with the harder sounding Brutal Planet and Dragontown, The Eyes of Alice Cooper was hit and miss and had one or two stinkers but also some good tracks as he aimed for a garagey sound, Dirty Diamonds on the other hand was a bit of a let down with a poppy sound and no stand out tracks.
