It's not all fun and games around MTV News HQ... except when it is. And never is that more true than when a box of movie tie-in toys shows up in the newsroom, and we all suddenly regress to our 11-year-old selves on Christmas morning.
Today was one of those days, made so by the arrival of a big box of "Transformers: Dark Of The Moon" swag from the good folks at Hasbro. Like many of the packages they've sent us over the years, even the box was a work of geek-friendly design, created to look like Optimus Prime's trailer and containing a cornucopia of Transformers toys, including a Bumblebee mask that doubles as 3-D theater glasses.
Normally, I'd post photos of the box and its contents on MTV Splash Page along with a pic of myself outfitted in whatever wearable items the package contained (see "Thor" and "Green Lantern" for recent examples), but this time around, I found a willing volunteer in your very own MTV Movies Blog editor, Josh Wigler. Since you'll be able to read the bulk of MTV's "Transformers: Dark Of The Moon" coverage here on MTV Movies Blog, it's only right that he step up, strap on the mask, and proudly fly his geek flag.
Here are some photos of the box and its contents:
And here's a shot of MTV Movies Blog editor Josh Wigler, who I'm fairly certain is a Robot In Disguise (because no human can write as quickly as he does):
Oh, and I don't care what the helmet symbol indicates... he's definitely a Decepticon.
You can find out more about Hasbro's line of "Transformers: Dark Of The Moon" toys and accessories at their official website. "Transformers: Dark Of The Moon" hits theaters June 29.
