catch the intergalactic excitement of transformers at burger king® restaurants this summer

This summer BURGER KING® restaurants across the United Arab Emirates (UAE) will see the shape-shifting Transformers spring into action with the purchase of every delicious Kid’s Meal beginning June 1, 2007.

Children will be able to take home cool and funky toys based on the characters from the classic cartoon series turned major motion picture, Transformers. The line up of toys include “Prime Time,” “Mighty Megatron,” “Ready-to-Ride Ironhide,” “Rise-Up Ratchet,” “Bumblebee Transformer,” “Propeller-Launch Vortex,” “Flip-Out Scorponok” and “Battle-Damage Starscream.”

“We are thrilled we could be a part of the Transformers story and offer kids commemorative toys based on the dynamic set of characters,” said Yasser Abdel Azim, director of marketing and business development for First Food Services L.L.C., the BURGER KING® franchisee in UAE. “We at BURGER KING® hope that when children go out and see the Transformers movie that they know they can come back to BURGER KING® and be a part of the action themselves.”

Transformers, a famous cartoon series recently made into a movie, tells the story about the young boy named Sam Witwicky, who discovers a map to Allspark, the source of life over which the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons wage a war. These dueling alien races have brought their battle to Earth, leaving the future of mankind hanging in the balance. As the villainous Decepticons struggle to obtain the key to unlimited power, Sam stands as mankind's last hope for survival.
