Toy transformer is a toy PC with a real 4-Port USB Hub as a heart

It seems like every day there’s a new USB hub dressed up to resemble something else. I’m never sure if the actual product will look as good as the pictures. For example just the other day we had the heart shaped chocolate cake 4 Port USB hub. I doubt the cake will fool many people into thinking it’s edible. This toy transformer could be a different story though. This tiny toy folds into a mini Windows XP computer that in turn contains what appears to be a working 4-Port USB Hub. The site offering this gizmo looks to be in Japanese and the most I can make out is that it is destined for a September 2009 release for Windows 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista and Mac based computers.

    I can’t believe they turned Blaster into a laptop which is really a USB hub. Sadly, he was one of my favorite Transformers as a kid.
