Notice the DVD ad on the paper. It even says that it's after 20 years. Hasbro is desperate.

Literacy is the right of all sentient beings.

Someone had to say it

One shall stand, one shall read.

I thought that you were made of more literate stuff, Megatron.

And reading is half the battle!

Autobots, transform and read a book!

OP: All we need is a little energon, and a lot of books...
Megs: More books than you can imagine, Optimus Prime!

'Till all are literate!

I would have prefered Grimlock as the literacy spokesperson.

"Me Grimlock think reading good."

"...He regularly concluded his animated broadcasts with an intimate and encouraging public service message..."

...No he didn't! Unless you count the DVD's, or the season that he DIDN'T appear in, That's a big fat LIE, my friends.

Still, it's cool to see Prime back on civic duty. He IS a legend, after all. My 2 year old nephew knows about Optimus Prime. Score one more for the TransFans!
