More than meets the eye?

I was just checking the TSA site to get any travel updates on what I can carry-on. The list of "permitted and prohibited" items caught me by surprise. For just after "Toothpaste" and before "Toy Weapons" was "Toy Transformer Robots". Did I miss something? Were Transformers a security concern at some point

Seriously! You think you have an ordinary CD player when, in reality, you have a robot intent on taking over Air Force One!

Transformers? How does that even make it on the list? That just seems completelty odd.

I'm hoping it's some sort of joke. But, knowing the TSA it probably isn't.
