FYI, this story is more than a year old

Microsoft has announced that the upcoming special edition "Transformer" wireless control pads for Xbox 360 will hit New Zealand retailers from November 9th for $109.95.

The new control pads improve on the much-criticised D-pad of the existing Xbox 360 controllers by allowing gamers to raise the D-pad by twisting the base. This gives the player more precise control when used for 2D fighting games, for instance.

The new controller also comes bundled with a Plug and Charge battery kit.
