As I live in Europe it will be quit hard to go there.
I did it once in 1998 in Abnaheim, it was amazing.

Does anybody maybe know if there is something arranged in Europe as well?

Woah :shock: That was sweet! I thought the whole live-action thing was gonna be cheesy, like guys walking around in cardboard suits or something. I'm assuming a production company could do a way better job, now I cant wait!

i was going to ask you to send the clip to me, too, KMMA1978, but i think i found it on my own by mistake. Assuming i found the one you're talking about, anyone else who wants to see it can find it available for free download in .mpg format at the website(s) of the guy who made it: <http://home.comcast.net/~msmith1015/Homepage.htm> or <http://mywebpages.comcast.net/msmith1015/Frames.htm>. There are two versions of the mpg, one ~1.5 Megs and a high resolution one ~4.7 Megs. i only downloaded the latter, so i can't compare the two for you; you'll just have to try it yourselves to see if you think it's worth getting the HiRes, which costs twice as much. (i told you it was free, didn't i?)

By the way, friend spidude, look at the colors, look at the transformation, and look at his head. That's not Bumblebee--that's Jazz! He's just wearing a New Beetle instead of a racecar. Regardless of who it is, though, it's still pretty awesome. And if a guy can do this just for kicks, just imagine what's coming for us on the big screen!

That's right, i said big screen! For those who haven't heard, the Transformers are getting their very own live action movie! i first learned of it on the <http://www.transformerland.com> main page, and have since seen too many references to it to believe it's just a rumor. However, i have yet to find anything to confirm or deny what i found regarding the film's intended storyline from this article: <http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hp&cf=prev&id=1808512169>. (That's where i found the link that led me to the New Beetle transformation movie.) i've never looked at the Yahoo! Movies pages before, so i don't know how reliable the information is, but as i said, i haven't found any other reports supporting or contrary to that entry.
