Display your Transformers fandom with the ridiculously-packaged trilogy set

Add as a preferred source on Google

We won’t say anything about how amazing the Transformer movies are, or how they are overlooked in terms of plot excellence because hey, we’d be lying. There’s no award-winning drama here, but there is penty of action, special effects, and hot girls, so take that as you will. If you’re a fan of the movies (we’re not judging), then you can, as of January 31, put your fandom on full display with the Transformers Trilogy set ($90). The set includes seven discs loaded with all three Transformer films in both DVD and Blu-ray formats, as well as over 10 hours of bonus footage. The newest film, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, comes in Blu-ray 3D. 

The robotic fun doesn’t stop there. In addition to the complete set of movies, you get a movie plaque signed by director Michael Bay featuring images from all three films in the trilogy, and the whole set comes in the above “trophy display” special packaging. We’re not sure we’d want that thing on display in our living room, but we definitely know some people who would. If you are one of those, then get yourself over to Amazon to pre-order the ridiculously-boxed set. Then sit back and let the mindless action take over your home theater. We’d suggest having some good speakers.

Apple HomeView feature

Apple’s recently unveiled HomeView smart display could also function as a home security camera, according to a new finding in its software. The device, which already has a built-in camera for FaceTime calls and facial recognition, could supposedly use the same hardware for motion detection, live streaming, and video recording through HomeKit Secure Video.

The feature was spotted by a Reddit user in the settings files of HomeView Software 27.2 (via TheVerge). Apple hasn’t officially announced anything about it yet, but the references suggest there are going to be a few more uses for the built-in camera.

Shopping for a new mattress sounds simple until you start looking. Memory foam or hybrid? Soft or firm? Cooling covers, pressure-relief zones, motion isolation, sleep tracking — suddenly, you're comparing features that barely existed the last time you bought a bed. Even the most expensive option could be a poor match.
