(these don't appear to have an on/off switch like other electronic gimmick figures, which means they go off all the time when packed away in a bag with others)

One thing I wanted to mention about the Optimus one - activating the (barbaric) hack-saw several times quickly, will then cause Optimus to laugh sadistically.
It's a real crack-up, because this is supposed to be the "noble, heroic" Optimus Prime, and yet he comes with a sadistic weapon and a sadistic laugh when you activate it.
I guess it fits in with the Bay version of Optimus Prime, from TF2 onwards.
