Yao Ming Transformer Basketball Toy

A while back we showed you the Nike 7.0 x Transformers Convoy & Megatron, a collaboration that paired up Transformers toys with the Nike Free 7.0 running shoe. While the Yao Ming basketball transformer may not fall in line with the Nike Transformers, considering Yao is endorsed by Reebok, this toy is definitely a cool take on the Transformers concept. At first glance, this toy just looks like a small, plastic basketball. Then, upon opening, you see the figure pictured above, which appears to be some kind of Yao Ming transformer, basketball super-hero. These may release in China and Houston, TX, but there is no official release information so stay tuned. via HoopChina
