Transformers Sports Label

NCS recalls a time when the words "Nike" and "Transformers" would have never jibed in the same sentence or breath. Nike = Sneakers. Transformers = Robots. There's no relationship between the two whatsoever and never the twain shall meet.

Hell froze over.

Enter the latest collaboration between two household names: Nike and Transformers. At first glom, the Nike Transformers looks like a well-appointed 6" duo-tone sneaker with white laces. However with a few twists, shifts, and turns, the shoe transforms into a recognizable robot known by fans the world over. This is no normal robot however since its trailing loose laces and wearing miniature sneaks which may be popped onto its mechanical feet. Two styles are on offer as follows:

» White/Red Nike sneaker which transforms into a red/white/blue Optimus
» Black/White Nike sneaker which morphs into a black/white Megatron

Preorders are welcome to ship in mid-late April 2007 at US$29 each.
