TRANSFORMERS: EARTH WARS

There is a new game available for iOS and Android devices featuring the TRANSFORMERS and I have to say its imagery takes me back to the 1980 toys and cartoons of my youth featuring these characters that transform between warrior robots and various types of vehicles.  Over the last 30 years there have been various updates and redesigns of the TRANSFORMERS in their Hasbro toy line, comic book series, movies and television shows; so I was wowed how in this app they resemble the original TRANSFORMERS of my childhood giving this real-time combat strategy game for mobile devices a cool retro vibe.  It even features the voices of the original Optimus Prime (Peter Cullen) and Megatron (Frank Welker) from the 1980s cartoon that first made the Transformers a pop culture hit. While TRANSFORMERS: EARTH WARS may be filled with iconic characters and classic imagery from the Transfomers Universe it also is full of the newest generation of features desired in video games for mobile devices, such as vibrant 3D animations, which makes it great to play for both kids and kids-at-heart.



Published by Backflip Studios (DragonVale, SpellFall, Paper Toss) and developed by Space Ape Games (Rival Kingdoms, Samurai Siege), TRANSFORMERS: EARTH WARS has players must choose to fight with Optimus Prime and the Autobots or Megatron and the Decepticons in a battle to decide the fate of planet Earth. Once allegiance has been sworn, gamers assemble a powerful team of playable characters, raid enemy bases for Energon stockpiles, and construct the Space Bridge to add reinforcements from Cybertron, all while playing in real-time against other players around the globe. The game is available now for FREE download on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, and on Google Play for Android devices. There are in-app purchases within the game that allow players to speed up getting through the stages of the game or to enhance the characters to improve the game play experience for people who are into going beyond free-mode in apps like this.

Win a Fun T-shirt Courtesy of SHIRTS.COM

You have to admit no matter how old ... or young ... a person is a fun t-shirt is a staple for any wardrobe.  Unless enjoying a vacation and looking for a cool souvenir, shopping for t-shirts at stores unfortunately often can be a real drag as it is  difficult to find that awesome perfect shirt you really want when you want it because you're not lucky enough to stumble upon an eye catching design, a size that fits, or a price that isn't ridiculously high.  I recently discovered SHIRTS.COM and can say problem solved!
Hey shirts.com has a t-shirt that combines Star Wars and Bacon....you know they had me at Darth Vader!

Shirts.com allows you to select online from a wide selection of fun t-shirts from a variety of categories like Funny, Vintage and Cheap for men, women, girls and boys.  The Cheap Shirts section though aren't tacky or crappy rather it has a selection of fun shirts that are like finding a good deal on a clearance item rack that is actually something that fits you and you'd want to wear.  I dare you to say this R2-D2 shirt from the Cheap Shirts section is tacky. It's Geek Chic!

Our family recently ordered several t-shirts from shirts.com - they had something for everyone: a retro School House Rock shirt for me, My Little Pony for my little princess, How To Train Your Dragon for my son, and a Wally World one for my wife who says our family vacation are always like a National Lampoons movie - and we love them.  So we're going to share the love with one lucky A Geek Daddy blog reader and provide a $25 credit so you can pick out your own fun t-shirt from SHIRTS.COM to enjoy!

FACEBOOK (2 ENTRIES) - Leave a comment on this giveaway post identifying which t-shirt you'd like to win from shirt.com and a link to the shirt from their website.

From my perspective, I appreciate this website because they have a large inventory of SciFi/Superhero shirts to select from including Back to the Future, Batman, Marvel, Star Trek, and Star Wars.  My wife noted that each shirt's description on the website has a Softness Rating and she said it was dead on when it came to our experience with the website that apparently was her favorite thing.  She really is right on that point as my son's shirt was listed as 10/10 on the Softness Rating and it is soooo soft!!!  From my kids' perspective they really liked getting shirts tied to brands they love (My Little Ponies / Dreamworks How To Train Your Dragon) and that it was fun to get something in the mail. It's nice that shirts.com offers a reasonable flat rate for standard shipping (4-8 days delivery) at $2.99 for your entire order.

Shirts.com is part of a trio of online shopping websites with a fun theme which also includes HalloweenCostumes.com, which lets kids and adults get into the spirit of the holiday or get dressed up for that that masquerade ball or themed party that pops up sometime during the rest of the year, and Fun.com, which sells novelty gifts that let people appreciate and enjoy the geeky side of life.

From our family's experience with SHIRTS.COM they get A GEEK DADDY nod of approval for the convenience and selection offered by the website, reliable manner the company conducted itself, and the quality of products we received.  Check them out at www.shirts.com.
