For movies Product placement is everything to keep those budgets in place but with the Transformers Movies they take the Product Placement a bit further and make Robots out of them forcing product placement into the forefront. So I thought it would be fun to look into this and report these walking commercials inside a commercial for a toys.

Transformers live action movie of 2007 had a bunch of these things and they were made by the Allspark when they came into contact with the energy from the cube.

• Name: Dispensor – Product: Mountain Dew – Alternate form: Pop Machine – Toy: Yes but he turns into a “Mountain Dew” inspired delivery truck and the Logo has been changed to “Mood Wiplash”. He is a redeco / retool of Payload and has pop machine like markings on his roof.

The 2005 version replaces the trailer altogether with a flatbed that has special brackets that hold a Pepsi bottle that is included, he also sports a Pepsi inspired paint job with the bottom part of his cab is Blue and his White line has a wave to it on the sides similar to the Pepsi line. He also has Red and White lines added to his legs and a Pepsi logo on his left shoulder
