We thank Hasbro for sending us the entire first series of Transformers BotBots so that you can get a good look at all the toys coming soon to a variety of retailers near you. We made some galleries to give you the best look yet at all these new Toys. Here we have the Lots Bots. These are a ransom mixture of bots that would belong to other lines but taht have been lost and thus must band together. They turn into thematics from other lines like a burger, a cupcake and a flashlight. The official release window for these is early 2019 and there will be two more series released throughout 2019 with over 190 Botbots to collect. These will be released through a mixture of sets and blind bags.
Below you will find images and links to the gallery for the following Botbots:
Stapleton
Game Over
Frostferatu
Dimlit
Clogstopper
Burgertron
Bonz-Eye
You can click on any of the images below to be brought to the full gallery of each Botbot.

Seems like Clogstopper should be the leader of the Toilet Troop...ironic that he's the lost one instead.

Makes perfect sense to me. Out of all the bathroom items come to life, which one do you suppose would want to get lost, or as far away from the bathroom as possible?

Great news for anyone who wants to get you some Botbots. Amazon currently has the Techie Team, Sugar Shock and Toilet Troop 5 packs available for order at $9.99 each. I ordered 1 of each and it currently says arriving Sunday, so I'm guessing the release date must be Friday or Saturday.

We have a few Transformers BotBots sightings to report. Fellow Seibertronian TF-fan kev777 found 3 of the 5 packs on Amazon.com.
Sugar Shock: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D5 ... UTF8&psc=1?tag=seibertron07-20&
Techie Team: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D5 ... UTF8&psc=1?tag=seibertron07-20&
Toilet Troop: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D5 ... UTF8&psc=1?tag=seibertron07-20&
Over in Canada, the blind packs containing one figure were found at Toysrus in the province of Ontario for $3.99 CAD each. They were in the Transformers section, and not the blind bag area. This was reported by Lioconvoy81 over at Cybertron.ca.
This is great news to many who were hoping to use these as stocking stuffers this Christmas. If you want to see these toys in detail before you buy them, we have a gallery for every single character here.

About that, I can't quite get them to match up evenly.
Burgertron -- Greaser Gang
Clogstopper -- Toilet Troop
Frostferatu -- Sugar Shock
Game Over -- Techie Team
Stinkeye Stapleton -- Backpack Bunch
But Bonz-Eye and Dimlit both appear to be Shedheads with no extra member for Jock Squad. Seems like a strange oversight. As it is Jock Squad only has 6 members, you'd thing Lost Bots would have two Jocks instead to bring their numbers up.
Also these are definitely not something I would buy online, I want to limit the chances of getting duplicates.

Probably a good call, mine arrived today and sure enough I did get one duplicate, but I got the donut and unicorn cupcake, which I was hoping for, so I'm happy overall. I haven't opened them yet, so no clue if the blind ones are duplicates either. Plus if the 5 packs do show up at retail before Christmas, I can always buy another without a duplicate and return one of the packs with a double.

It was asked where the Botbots would be found when they got to retail and it turns out that they are neither in the boy or girl aisle. As it turns out, they were found at a US Walmart in the stocking stuffer bins. In Canada, some have been found at the checkout line.
Only the single "blind bags" have been found at brick and mortar retail so far and it turns out that those include the rarest figures, since some characters are only found through blind bags. There is a way to figure out which character is in the bling bag since there is an number scratched into the bottom right of the back of the card. You can see numbers 16 and 9 below which correspond to Slobber Rock and S.A. Cheez, as you can tell from the list below, courtesy of tformers.com.
1 - Stinkasaurus Rex
2 - Scrub-A-Dub
3 - Nobeeoh
4 - Cocoa Crazy
5 - Sippy Slurps
6 - Remorsel
7 - Skillz Punk
8 - Fomo
9 - S.A. Cheez
10 - S'up Dawg
11 - Twerple Bubble
12 - Spud Muffin
13 - Rootwing
14 - Venus Frogtrap
15 - Fun Gus
16 - Slobber Rock
17 - Frostferatu
18 - Dimlit
19 - Professor Wellread
20 - Snippy Snappy
21 - Totes Magotes
22 - Cranks
23 - Batsby
24 - Kidd Klobber

No need, Philip164 already has us covered:
Green = 1 Figure, Yellow = 2 Figures, Red = 3 Figures, and Purple = 4 Figures
So the ones you can only find in blind bags are:
Cupcake
Book
Pencil sharpner
Bag
Soda Cup
Bush
Mushroom
Rock
Hot Coco
Chocolate Bar
Photo camera
Video Camera
Soap Bar
Deodorant
Decorative Plant Dinosaur

So 15 out of the 24 guys in the blind bags are found only in the blind bags? Just a shade under two-thirds, seems fair I gues.

Yeah, I think its fair too. Would kind of be a dick move if all the blind bag ones could be found in the other standard packs. And in any case, we can know which ones are in the blind bags too.

On the one hand, yes, it's about 50 cents to a dollar more than what you get per figure for the multi-packs. On the other hand, I can say from experience that a lot of these blind bag sets end up in places like dollar stores and Five Below, so you can wait and take a chance that you'll find some of them there.

Both Walmarts in our area claimed to have these in stock, but after much searching, no luck.
Am I right in thinking there's been no official characterizations provided for the individual Botbots? Because Seibertron's photo-galleries are making my typing fingers itchy.

I managed to snag the ones I wanted from the blind bags at Walmart. Now I just have to wait for Santa to put them in mine and my youngest's stockings.
Before I did, I got lucky and noticed that due to Amazon shipping the three 5-packs I ordered in a bubble mailer, 2 of the 3 red bubbles for the blind figure on the 5-packs had some small cracks in them. I'm not mad, in fact this was helpful as I was able to flex the plastic on the bubble and see who was inside. That crossed 2 off my Walmart list.
I did notice that Entertainment Earth has an assortment of 5 and 8 packs as well as 6 packs and cases of the blind bags. The blind bags come 24 to a case, so I think there is a good chance of getting one of each. The ones I found at Walmart looked to be a single set of 1-24, So I'm guessing they are packaging them that way.

So I picked up 3 of these Botbots yesterday, and they are so cute! This was what the Tiny Turbo Changers were leading to, and I love it.
If anyone has dupes of the Penguin or Unicorn, those are the 2 I really want! Can't wait to start seeing the 5 and 8 packs!

Many were hoping that the Botbots would be found in stores soon especially since it is easier not to score so many doubles when you can actually see what is inside the multipack.
Well every single release has now hit Canada at Toysrus stores. The 5 packs are $12.99 and the 8 packs are $19.99 CAD. There is currently a Buy One Get One 50% off which includes all Transformers at Toysrus (you may need to remind the cashier since them arriving after the begining of the sale may require some workaround) making these even cheaper. As you will see in the images below, a lot of figures repeat eachother in the packs so there is a guide available showing which packs to by to get the entire set withthe least doubles possible. You can find that guide here.
This is great news to many who were hoping to use these as stocking stuffers this Christmas. If you want to see these toys in detail before you buy them, we have a gallery for every single character here.

Thanks to the numbers on the backs I got all the botbots that I wanted out of the blind packs. These little guys are so much fun! Slobber-rock is my boy, he's a rock tortoise what's not to love? I can't wait to find the multi packs so I can get the unicorn, doughnut and penguin.

We have the same taste, those are the oens I wanted most too, along with Sudsbeard. My advice is to get the multipack with sudsbeard since he is unique and thus it would be the best way to avoid duplicates later.

So they are found with the rest of the Transformers not with all the other random toys with blind packages?

Depends where you are located and which stores. In Toysrus Canada, they are with the Transformers for now, but at Walmart in US they are in the stocking stuffer boxes.

I completely forgot about Sudsbeard! He's another one I definitely need to get.

I ordered 1 of each (Sugar Shock, Toilet Troop and Techie Team) of the 5 packs and a Jock Squad 8-pack from Amazon and lucked out and got all 4 of those mentioned above. The donut and unicorn are in one of the 5 packs as well as one of the 8 packs, so I'd see which one you like the rest of the assortment from and go for that in store. The penguin comes in the 5-pack with Sudsbeard, so you should be covered there.
I ended up with duplicates of the pencil and football, which I'm okay with. I may keep or trade them of give them to a family friend with youngsters.

A UK Transformers fan and looking for some pint sized fun? Upset that other countries can go to their local store and pick these up? Well don't despair, as just in time for Christmas, the Botbots have landed at Symths Toys Superstore! The sighting was made by yours truly at the Symths Toys Superstore in Portrack Lane, Stockton on Tees.
While only the five and eight packs are pictured here, which are priced £9.99 and £14.99 respectively, they did have the £2.99 blind bags available as well. The full website listings are here.
Happy Hunting!

Found this little mech suit at my local thrift store. Worth the $0.52 I paid for it. Now Coco really is crazy.

Hey fellow collectors. I stumbled onto a tip that could save us a few buck by avoiding duplicate blind bags/boxes. Anyo else tried it?

That's great to know. I was sure I wasn't the only one who figured it out but just in case there were others I wanted to make sure. A penny saved...and all that.

Normally Big Lots is a good place to look for older toys and potato chips from brands you've never heard of, but look at this, something new! Thanks to a sighting by our very own xRotorstormx of the Twincast Podcast crew we have news of the BotBots 5-packs showing up at Big Lots. Priced at $10 and appearing before most major retailers the 5-packs feature four visible figures and one secret figure under the red bubble, similar to the single figures that started showing up during the holidays.
Have you found these at any other retailers? Be sure to pass your sightings on to the news crew here and post them in the Energon Pub below.
