Join The Decobracon Army! posted on November 8, 2006 10:42 AM by rethwyll.
We are a child of the '80s, which means that a significant portion of our early life was spent watching television. Sadly, not all of it was quite as intellectually stimulating as The Electric Company and "Schoolhouse Rock": most of the shows we watched were thinly-veiled, half-hour-long commercials. While the other girls were absorbing Jem and the Holograms, She-Ra and other "girl-oriented" (read: mind-numbingly lame) cartoons, however, we divided our time equally between G.I. Joe and The Transformers, because we are all about the intergalactic robots, elite special forces and ruthless terrorist organizations determined to rule the world.
We are hard-pressed to explain why there has never been a G.I. Joe/Transformers crossover television event, and only one or two comic-book crossovers (most recently in 2003 from Dreamwave). It must have been for liability reasons, because we know that our 11-year-old brain would have exploded in joy at the prospect.
We have decided to start a grassroots effort to bring these two colossi of advertainment together on the small screen (or the big screen — we're not picky.) Step one is to wear this COBRA/Decepticon logo t-shirt wherever possible. (Actually, that's the only step right now; we're not exactly good at this grassroots-campaigning stuff. Frankly, we just wanted an excuse to buy a kick-ass t-shirt. But maybe it will give someone, SOMEWHERE the hint.)
Buy it! COBRA/Decepticons logo t-shirt, $16.98 (or 2 for $30.00!), at stylinonline.com.
