Send Personal Message From Prime; Suit Up As 'Con, 'Bot
By bwbm on Monday, October 08, 2007
In celebration of the "Transformers" hitting DVD on October 16th, two new features have been added to the official "Transformers" movie website.
The first one is the ability to create a message for a friend from Optimus Prime, voiced by Peter Cullen. Inputting requested information will generate a personalized message that you can send to your friends' e-mail or cell phone.
The second is the ability to upload a passport-style photo of yourself or a group and suit up as an Autobot or Decepticon. After the photo is finished, you can share, embed, and download the photo.

Voice message works (and you can download the mp3 at the site without the need to email it using "firefox" and the "DownloadHelper" add-on).
The other thing failed to load and is not part of Hasbro.com so perhaps it's a bit dodgy...

Finally got to the site where you upload a picture of your face but its a complete waste if time. ONLY passport photos work. ANYTHING else taken with a digital camera or anything in natural light etc simply wont be accepted. You cant even wear sunglasses or an Optimus Prime helmet etc.
They warn you at the beginning but seriously...lame concept.
Still, OP's voice message is cool though...

I had no problems with the Photo site, But yes a little more control on this end would be nice. Like being able to pick the transformer you are be their name. Maybe a little more control of being able to move the picture around so that it will fit correctly onto the robot. I have seen this done better on student sites.
Prime's voice is cool, and will be enjoyed by other transfans. I only wish I could have type a sentence and had Prime speak it. Like Happy Anniversary. That would be funny.

The Optimus message/call is awesome! Bet we'll see this happening with more movies in the future simply b/c it's a form of advertisment that is fun.
