hmmmm. these or freerods ? ....
where do i buy them at?
Lordy!!!!!!!!!
Atrocious.
Finally I've been waiting even before the movie came out!
How much?
Where are the pics for the rest of the pack???
I've been waiting for these since the first pics were release. Will be COPPED
It was a long wait... But these are soo worth itttttt! Anyone know what stores will have 'em? I guess I'll have to call aroundd.
Ive been waiting for these since I first saw them, but I'm going on vacation when these come out. I'll try to cop them online.
I think these are the best exclusive kicks I have seen this year!!!
YEAH...CAUSE 90% of yall BUY TRAINER III's !!!! I hate TEENS !!
Anyone else upset that the autobot logo is no loner there?
I am. I loved the huge Autobot isignia on the original, I just wished they got rid of the yellow laces. Im glad the laces are gone, but they should have kept the Autbots insignia there. Either way, Optimus Prime got him some nice kicks. Autobots, TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT!!!
Is the Autobot insignia definitely gone on the final release of the shoe? Is there any hint if this being a Transformer-inspired shoe aside from the color scheme (i.e. Autobot/Decepticon insignia)?
Nike could have done so much more with this concept. It will be sad when these hit the outlets in about 3 months for half price.
As for me... I can't wait for Reeboks Voltron Pack, those shoes are HOT!!!!
I don't think it dropped today. Any new info?
I've been to a few spots in the northern nj area... I've called packers shoes (a well known shop) and according to them, no one has them as of yet. No word on the release date. Btw, these are off the hook... On a scale of 1 to 10 where the reebok voltron pack is an 11, theres are an 8. Autobot sign wouldve made it a 10....
These still have not come out!
Any word if they are real?
i think nike did a good job on these, i like but i doubt ill cop unless it goes for 80 or two for 150 or 160
where do you buy them
Great books and great movies, makes me want to be a wizard!
