Burger King Rolls Out Transformers Blockbuster Deals!

It’s Out… TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION is now showing worldwide!

And that’s not all… Burger King Malaysia’s latest Blockbuster Deals inspired by the movie of Transformers: Age of Extinction is also available at all Burger King Malaysia outlets. The new Double Take burgers will have fans literally doing a double take as the one-of-a-kind burger comes with both chicken and beef patties – in one burger!

A recent media invite, media and bloggers were treated to the first preview of both Burger King’s Double Take Blockbuster Deals and Transformers: Age of Extinction IMAX 3D movie at TGV. Right before the movie, we savored the three burgers together with an Apple Bolt and fries.

Burger King’s Blockbuster Deals come with a choice of Single or Double patty burgers in chicken or beef, slathered in luscious cheese sauce, fresh lettuce, mayonnaise and new golden potato crunch. Savor the scrumptious burgers with an Apple Bolt, a refreshing fizzy apple flavored drink tinged with a hue of blue.

I had the Double Beef Burger and enjoyed it. The burger was made special with two layers of cheese sauce, making it thoroughly creamy and cheese plus the crunchy golden potato crunch gave the burger a great added texture. The Apple Bolt was decent with its sparkling soda with a hint of apple fizz.

The Burger King’s Blockbuster Deals rolls out this June for a limited time and a medium sized meal starts from RM10.95 and comes with a choice of chicken or beef burger, fries and an Apple Bolt. The Crunchy Jumbo Frank is available ala carte for RM4.95 only.

Burger King’s new menu roll-out is the company’s strategy to keep customers engaged and interested while enticing a whole new segment of movie-buffs. “Transformers is such a massive brand and it’s thrilling to be part of such a huge global phenomenon. With this tie-in, we wanted to go beyond the ordinary and challenge the conventional way of enjoying burgers. Double Take is perhaps the first of its kind that features both chicken and beef patties in one epic burger,” said Keith Loh, Director of Marketing, Burger King Malaysia and Singapore.

It’s a movie not to be missed! Opens in cinema nationwide in Malaysia on 26 June, there’s plenty of surprises to keep everyone glued to the screen. New Autobots and Decepticons with the debut of Dinobots are gorgeous to watch while hunky Mark Wahlberg takes the leading role in this fourth installment of the Transformers live-action series. Transformers: Age of Extinction is directed by Michael Bay with the legendary Steven Spielberg as the Executive Producer.

I won’t spill too much but this round, its ruthless businessman and scientists makes their attempt to outdo the Autobots and Decepticons by creating their own Transformers. The whole movie has plenty of action scenes, extreme plot twists and injections of historical replications of dinosaurs. The epic adventure and battle between good and evil, freedom and enslavement will ensue. Catch Transformers: Age of Extinction in 3D, IMAX 3D and DOLBY ATMOS.

Roll out and grab a Transformers Blockbuster Deal at the nearest Burger King outlet before you hit the movie theater to catch Transformers: Age of Extinction!

A Pensonic High Tea Affair with TVB Cast of No Regrets

A lovely quaint event held at JW Marriots by Pensonic to feature the TVB series of No Regrets and the cast one fine weekend!

No Regrets is a 2010 TVB television drama from Hong Kong created and produced by Lee Tim-shing. The drama is the reboot successor of the 2009 award-winning drama Rosy Business, which was the second most-viewed drama in Hong Kong of the year by average. The cast from the No Regrets was in Kuala Lumpur recently to promote their No Regrets TV series showcasing from 21st November on Astro sponsored by Pensonic.

The event was honored by the presence of Wayne Lai, Nancy Wu, Pierre Ngo and Raymond Wong with a series of questions and answers, singing performance and even some entertainment of games with the guest!! The event was attended by invite only and some lucky fans won the invitation to meet up with the TVB cast!

The event rolled off with guest identifying eight differences between the two images and 20 lucky correct winners won some goodies!

The four guests made an appearance and the emcee, Sean had some fun chatting with them about their roles!

Set in the late 1930s to late 1940s in Canton, Republic of China during World War II, No Regrets is an epic drama that centers on a triad family, the Guangzhou police force, and the Japanese occupation of the city. The Chinese title of No Regrets (巾帼枭雄之義海豪情) literally translates to “Veiled Heroine, Ruthless Hero: Righteous Sea, Heroic Passion”, referring to both the chaotic period of war and the complicated relationship shared by the two main characters, Cheng Kau-mui (Sheren Tang) and Lau Sing (Wayne Lai).

Wayne Lai – Lau Sing is an honest policemen yearning for stability, instead, fate hands him the opposite where he has a thorny romance with the daughter of an opium lord in the midst of the Japanese invasion. Behind his biting wit and sharp combat skills, Lau Sing is a flawed, stubborn hero struggling to uphold his lofty values through a period of war and turmoil.

Nancy Wu – Ma Lei Wah was brought up by her mom who saved Kau Mui in an incident. In debted to both mother and daughter, Kau Mui provides shelter for them but Lei Wah ends up being accused in a murder case. Lei Wah portrays a lady with big embitions and hopes to eventually pursue the grandness of power just like Kau Mui.

Pierre Ngo – Tong Kat is an awkward youngster nicknamed ‘Pai Kuat’ by the other policemen for his skinny build. He is a simple man whose only ambition is to raise a family but he soon discovers that life is seldom straightforward, as he gets entangled in deadly battles waged by larger powers.

Raymond Wong – Yeung Yeung is a loyal friend and subordinate to Lau Sing. He is a timid man who begins his path in the shadows of his superiors. It is his unspoken love for Lau Ching (Lau Sing’s bedridden sister) that eventually gives him the strength to determine his own fate, as turmoil and trying circumstances bring the two together.

The cast each performed a song during this event. I have to concurred that all four of them sure can sing pretty well!

The stars also mingled with four lucky guests who played some shooting games to see who can win the prize!

A sweet and pretty Emily Lim got to partner with Raymond where they both shoot very well!!

This was followed by another game of Bingo where one of the prizes was won by a grandmother over her eighties but looking fabulously good!!

Nelson Chew from Pensonic presented the cast with the latest Pensonic product, a revolutionary Carbon Based Heating Technology Kelvin 310 light weight heated jacket! These should come in handy during the Hong Kong winter seasons and the cast was very happy with this gift that it brought smiles to everyone.

All four of the cast proceeded to partake in an autograph session and photo session with the fans and guest. I even went home with the poster of the cast’s autographs!!

Here’s a glimpse of some of our high-tea delight that day! For the first time, I was too busy taking pictures of the event than the food…. Hehehe!

Catch No Regrets on Astro commencing 21^st November at 9.30pm onwards!

*Thanks to Pensonic, Alan and Sid for the invite!
