About: Gents… my name is Dusty. To date, I have been resident amongst the masses of Gear Patrol devotees. Now, I have received a different calling. My charge is to shrug off the casual and carefree life of one who solely reads; I am to eschew the selfish pleasures man-info consumption, and to, instead, contribute mighty works of journalistic prowess suitable for the enlightenment of the Gear Patrol audience.
I’m sure that we would all agree that Gear Patrol shines as a bright beacon in the world of Men’s Lifestyle and Leisure. With numerous other sites and magazines vying for your attention, you read Gear Patrol because it cuts through the worthless flotsam and jetsam the other sites and blogs rehash day in and day out, bringing you a unique perspective on the latest gizmos and whatnots that matter to you. Well, it just so happens that I majored in gizmos and minored in whatnots.
Hopefully, my background and experiences will allow me to deliver piping-hot and tasty content direct to you from my areas of expertise. I was schooled in the beautiful Southeastern U.S. of A. There I spent only a modicum of time in actual class; instead wisely opting to hone other skills such as video game dominance (Ed: Dusty’s GoldenEye skills were unparalleled - full stop), media and entertainment studies, and indulging my competitive nature.
Post graduation, I sojourned for three years in southern Germany. There, I garnered a great appreciation for European culture as well as their longstanding brewing traditions/skills. Needless to say, travel is up there on my list of personal passions. Now I am back in the States where, by day, I work in sales and marketing in the construction industry. Also, I’m an on-again, off-again runner who enjoys many outdoor activities, preeminent among them being a fanatical, though rarely fantastical, golfer.
That being said, you may have to indulge some of my written idiosyncrasies. If my posts get too wacky, surely someone will let me know (Eric?). I plan to bring a bit of wit and wisdom to a community that clearly already has them in spades. Fellow readers, I shall do you proud by helping advance Gear Patrol in advancing you. After all, it’s a good bet that at least some of what entertains me just might entertain you too.

Explosions, alien robots, a hot chick, more explosions: those are plenty of reasons to add a flick to your personal DVD or Blu-ray collection. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has them all and makes for a great Friday night adrenaline-fest, as well as for booting up anytime you need to bask in the glory of your overpowered A/V setup. Lucky for you, the lads here at Gear Patrol want to make sure that you’re all set to do just that.
Chances are that Michael Bay’s theatrical beat-down part deux needs little introduction to you, our well-cultured reader. If you haven’t yet enjoyed this subwoofer raison d’etre, then you’re now poised to do so from the comfort of your own home and at the peril of your neighbors’ ear drums. The DVD and Blu-ray editions release next week, on October 20th, but in the meantime, you can get your Autobot vs. Decepticon fix (or have a personalized phone chat with O.P.) right here. One lucky GP reader is going to get the 2-disc Special Edition DVD set (Cost: $25), along with a poster and t-shirt to round out the Transformers experience.
Hit the jump for instructions, as well as some behind-the-scenes action from the movie’s filming.

I think Optimus Prime will always be my favorite…everytime I hear that voice it takes me right back to my childhood!
Bumblebee, but definitely more favorite..'ed when he was a volkswagon bug!
Megatron, because flying tanks rock.
That is unassailable logic. Flying tanks most definitely rock.
Optimus Prime, he had two swords. Pretty much all that needs to be said.
My favorite is Bumblebee.
Megatron I like color blue.
