Posting the same stories makes the writers look like they either don't check or they do check and they decided to rip off each others ideas.]]>Oct 20th 2007 6:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/
This is news, it isn't a novel or research paper. Reporting on an eBay sale is hardly an original idea, so even if they are "ripping it off" it really doesn't matter. The different blog sites attract different audiences, but sometimes both audiences are interested in the same thing.]]>Oct 20th 2007 7:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 20th 2007 11:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/]]>Oct 21st 2007 1:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 20th 2007 5:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 21st 2007 10:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 20th 2007 6:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 20th 2007 9:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 20th 2007 11:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 20th 2007 6:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/Oct 20th 2007 6:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/
Of course I understand there was no trailer in the first movie... On the other hand... it's a Transformers truck, screw practical uses :)]]>Oct 20th 2007 7:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/20/optimus-prime-peterbilt-replica-hits-ebay/

The shape is matching, but the color is solid red, while on the Transformers movie it's yellow-red gradient:
