So we knew the new year would bring about more Botbots, but that was all we knew, until now. Hasbro has updated their Australian site to include 4 new 5 packs which include new Botbots. 2 of those are new molds, and include a rolling pin and mixer. Both of those feature the colour change gimmick, which may be similar to the good old rub stamp effect. Both of these new molds are included in each of the 5 packs. The rest of the packs include redecos of previous Botbots including the soap dispensor in white and the pizza bot turned into a pie bot (the later works really well as a redeco). The packaging hints at even more redecos such as a white version of the book Botbot.

You can find all the images below which are followed by a full product description from the Hasbro site.

Not long ago, a flowing mist of Energon came down from the sky and covered a shopping mall. The objects inside were brought to life as little Transformers robots! These bots can hide in plain sight as everyday objects, meaning no one knows what's a bot and what's not! Mischievous, funny, and super silly, these are… BotBots!

BotBots characters are little figures with big personalities! These collectible toys are around 1-inch tall and change from totally normal stuff to adventurous little robots in 3 to 5 easy steps. Makes a great gift for kids ages 5 and up!

Each Bakery Bytes pack includes 5 figures from 2 exclusive teams: 3 from the Bakery Bytes and 2 from the Lawn League! 2 of the included Bakery Bytes characters have color change features. Just rub the figure to reveal the hidden color! Also look for Lawn League 8-packs (sold separately, subject to availability).

I honestly don't care for these things. Having "official" transformers that turn into food and other "disposable" items just seems odd. If they weren't labelled as Transformers, or were explained away as being completely mechanical, with fake (food) disguises (or were monsters and robots from somewhere else), then I'd be more interested. The other main reason though, is that I can't understand what the bot or alt modes are meant to be half of the time.

I love these! My kids and I are having a blast with these little guys. It's funny, though, because I was just thinking about possible redecos of Duderoni (the pizza guy), but only in terms of different pizza toppings. This works so much better.

It looks like the Sudsbeard (soap dispenser) redeco might be a jug of plant food (or weed killer?), given the logo on his hat and the fact that the other new team is called the Lawn League.

It's something called "Poopsie", something about unicorn toys that poop slime or something. I'm not looking it up, I'll start getting weird emails from stores trying to sell it to me and targeted ads. I really don't get toys these days. Maybe Hasbro should start making BotPlops or something? :roll:

For those currently engrossed in the newest and arguably strangest addition to the Transformers franchise, we have good news for you! BotBots has just recently acquired merchandise in the form of shirts and sweatshirts, available directly from Amazon.com! Current listings feature five unique designs, in a wide assortment of T-Shirts ($19.99-$21.99), Long Sleeves ($31.99), Crewneck Sweatshirts ($36.99) and Pullover Hoodies ($41.99).

Image

The entire current catalog, including the sample above, can be found here, but only time will tell if new additions are made over time. All current offerings are in stock and ready to ship out, so no need to wait if you want to get your hands on this absurd apparel.

Does this odd expansion to an already odd toyline interest you at all? Do the designs excite you with the prospect of more? If there are more, which BotBot would you like featured? Let us know in the forums below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for more Transformers News and Reviews.

Thanks to a notification from Seibertron ToxicSmoke (better known as TFanPage101), we now know of a new listing on Amazon.ca called "Transformers Botbots Grand Opening Surprise." This listing prices the item at $39.99 CAD, roughly $30.54 USD. This would likely make it more bigger, and have more BotBots than previous packages (1 pack, 5 pack, and 8 pack). The item can't be purchased, at the moment.

If you're curious, the details are:
Product Dimensions: 3.8 x 33 x 29.8 cm ; 998 g
Shipping Weight: 290 g
Item model number: E5362
ASIN: B07JXNXGZH
Date first available at Amazon.ca: Feb. 2 2019


And the descriptions, but it's pretty generic:

Most Transformers toys feature awesome weapons and cool converting features
Collect cool converting characters from the show Transformers: Robots in Disguise
Relive the original adventures with transformers Generations figures

What if it's a playset that comes with an exclusive bot bot or something? It could be the mall entrance and then they could sell other parts of the mall later on and you could build it up. That would be cool ^w^. I love these little guys I hope they stick around for a while.

I can't remember the last time I saw a Transformers commercial on TV, but my kids saw a commercial for these on Nickelodeon while visiting their grandparents sometime this past weekend. Now my daughter wants them, and both my kids asked why I never mentioned these...(do I have to explain ;) ) . I really would prefer her not to waste her money on these, but then I remember - she is NOT a collector like I am, she will likely purchase only a couple, and then move on to something else. The obsessive need to *collect them all* is not what she is about, which is a good thing.

Doesnt look like any of these use the rub feature that some of Wave 2 are supposed to have. Some of these look great. Not really tried to collect wave 1 or just the ones that stand out to me, im too lazy for the blind bag thing or buy set A, B, 9, C+ to get a full set.

My only caution is to not let a perfect opportunity for some daddy-daughter time go by if she is intent on getting a few of them anyway. It may even spark some interest in your other TF's on her end.

I get it, they are simple, with alt modes that nobody really needs toys of, and pretty much don't match or scale with anything in your collection.

They also happen to be some of the most fun I've had recently when playing around with my collection because my youngest wants to spend time with me. She makes us both put on some deodorant (Nobeeoh is her favorite). We play around together for a bit, followed by more deodorant. Then she starts doing her own thing for a while and so do I, then more deodorant. Then we start playing together again, and she gives all my combiners an application of deodorant. You get the idea.

Who is the leader of the Lost Bots (and overall, the entire BotBot gang)?

Oh hey, there'swhere that soccer ball guy wandered off to! I'm guessing the baseball guy will resurface eventually too?

I don't think most of the BotBot tribes have any sort of official leader or command structure, nor does anything make me think the BotBots as a whole act as any sort of unified faction.

I think the closest any official fiction gets to naming a leader is to say that Professor Wellread (the book from the Backpack Bunch) thinks he's the smartest and should therefore be in charge, but in reality the only book he's ever read is himself. There was also a suggestion (although I don't think it was from an official source) that Burgertron might have Primus Apotheosis. Either way, it's all for fun, and their social structures are much less formal than the "big" Transformers.

Anyway, very excited for these. My son is a big Grossery Gang fan, so the Spoiled Rottens will probably be on his want list. Gotta say, that broken can with the fish head poking out is... something else. Not a whole lot of Transformers that turn into carcasses.

As far as I'm aware, the only other one is Guiledart.

2019 will being you loads and loads of Botbots. Many were on display at the 2019 New York Toy Fair at the Hasbro booth and Seibertron was there to take many images of these new toys and share them with you. You will see iamges of Botbots from the following groups:

Shed Heads
Music Mob
Backpack Bunch
Season Greeters
Playroom Posse
Spoiled Rottens
Swag Stylers
Goo-Goo Groopies
Fresh Squeeses

For more details on the packs such as pricing, along with the various names used like "Steve From Accounting", you can click here to get all that info.
Clicking on any of the images below will bring you to the full gallery of what was on the showfloor. We also have a video of said show floor below.

Series 2 and 3 are looking pretty cool! The maraca skeleon guy, in particular, stands out to me.


I have to ask, though, was there no news about the color changers or whatever the "Grand Opening Surprise" is?

PotP Optimal Optimus is great for Botbots. He’s got the perfect hands.

I prefer G2 Primus because he can hold most of the items. The old leader class was pretty decent but most of them can't actually hold the items which is a slight downer for me. PotP Primal works well too.

Sadly, the botbots are all a little to big to work with the one bot with a designed throat and stomach compartment. That would have been epic.

Most of them are, but there are a few who work, like Lolly Licks.

It's always fun to get the codes to blindbox style collectables just so we are sure not to have duplicates, or to just get the one you want.

Blackai, a toy blog, got their hands on a whole set and have provided the codes along with images of each botbot. Most are redecos/slight retools from the previous series though it does make sense for a few, like a mustard bottle to match the ketchup bottle. There are new molds, and for those we have also included the image of the alt mode. Of cour you can view all images on the blog. Please not that for two of them, it is unsure if the code is 12 or 21.

1 – Sippyberry (based on Slippy Slurps)

2 – Captain Swoon (based on Sudsbeard)

3 – The Detangler (based on Poo Sham)

4 – King Candyhooves (based on Unilla Icequeencone)

5 – TV Cop (based on Goob Tube redeco)

6 – Ice Sight (based on Dr. Moggly)

7 – Glitchface (based one Screen Fiend)

8 – PB Junior (based on Angry Cheese)

9 – Must Turd (based on Fottle Barts)

10 – Mr. Sandy Man (based one Grit Sandwood)

11 – Tropic Guzzlerush (based on Arctic Guzzlerush)

12 (or 21) – Javasaurus Rex (coffee machine)

13 – Grumpy Clumpy (carton of spoiled milk)

14 – Atomic Freeze (based on Sippy Slurps)

15 – Drumbeats (drum set)

16 – Pink Key Pop (keytar)

17 – Ollie Bite (baseball cap)

18 – Frizzle Fry (based on Dim Lit)

19 – Sir Botcha (bottle of Sriracha)

20 – Techtonic Sonic (speaker set)

21 (or 12) – Songwave (based on of Pucksie)
