Transformers BotBots Arcade Renegades Available In Canada at Toysrus and Amazon

AcademyofDrX wrote:Wow, I guess collecting a complete set of Arcade Renegades is virtually impossible? There are 16 figures in the line, but only 12 of those in each package, and they're all exclusive to that set. I had no idea!

Turns out its the easiest set to get a complete set of. You just have to buy the arcade renegade pack with the number 6 in the back and you get all 16 in one fell swoop. I just did that today Will write an article about it later.

These guys kinda remind me of the NAILS in the last IDW continuity.

So i looked on Ebay, and there is a single listing with Quackle, and he is $25 shipped. The sad part is I'm really tempted by this

It is still unknown if Amazon.com will be the only one carrying the Botbots Arcade Renegades Surprise pack in the US (you can get it here now) but hopefully it comes to brick and mortar since this pack is very different from the rest. This mega set of 16 bots comes in 6 different packs. Althought they might look the same, since they have the same 8 bots exposed, there are 6 different variations of the blind bag bots. And, the worst part, only one of the 6 different blind assortments gives you the rest of the team while the other 5 blind assortments will give you repacks of series 1. Not redecos, repacks. So just the same toys you already have from series 1. There is a way to ensure that you get all of 16 different characters in one go. In the back, next to the chocolate bar with the cheat code written in his jacket, you can see a number from 1 to 6.

Here are examples, look at the tiny white number printed right before the purple background switches to turquoise.






Here are the contents of the blind portion of each of the numbers:

1: 24K-Bit, Laceface, S'up Dawg, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Skillz Punk, Spud Muffin, Sweet Cheat, Tangry Tart
2: Chilla Gorilla, Duderoni, The Fizz, Hawt Diggity, Papa Click, Pixelfin, Shredder Jack, Wrist Banned
3: 24K-Bit, Chilla Gorilla, Duderoni, Papa Click, Skillz Punk, Spud Muffin, Sweet Cheat, Wrist Banned
4: The Fizz, Hawt Diggity, Laceface, Pixelfin, S'up Dawg, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Shredder Jack, Tangry Tart
5: Chilla Gorilla, Duderoni, Laceface, Papa Click, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Skillz Punk, Sweet Cheat, Tangry Tart
6: 24K-Bit, The Fizz, Papa Click, Pixelfin, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Sweet Cheat, Tangry Tart, Wrist Banned

As you can see, number 6 is the only pack where you get all the arcade renegade bots without getting previously released bots from last year.

We also have a review of this set, which you can see below.

Niice. Although I wish I had known this last week; I spotted them on the shelf at my local Meijer and swiped the first one I saw. My son was a little miffed that we got four "old" figures, despite my insistence that getting twelve new figures (for the price of ten) is still pretty good.

For those interested in the SDCC botbots set, Hasbro Pulse will be having them up for order, limit 2, at $34.99 on September 4th (tentatively) with Pulse Premium members getting early access on September 3rd.

Yeah Northern Ireland is part of the UK (for now) but Ireland itself isn't (lucky buggers) still, this could mean that Symths in the UK could get this soon (or have it already)

Holy Quack!

I usually have to cheat and make it look like he's standing, when he's actually laying down.

No seriously, good job in getting Quackles to stand.

I noticed he is a bit top heavy, but that's ok, he's tiny. And cute! And the way he stood is by tilting his legs back a smidge, that's all he needed!

Ah, tried that on mine, and it only seems to work if the duck head/face is rotated upside down. . . Certainly makes that bill stand out a bit more, and not in a PG way. . .

You just need to get him to look up a little bit, like he sees a squirrel!

Thanks to our very own podfather ScottyP we've learned that as teased at the San Diego Comic Con, the Transformers BotBots Bakery Bytes 5-packs that had not been available in the US are now available on Amazon! That's right Batter Splatter, Cavi T., Chief Cherry 3.14, Flat Flour Face, Reci P., and Cooker are on their way to attack your toy collections and your appetites for just $9.99 per set! No word yet on the also teased Lawn League 8-packs but we'll keep you posted as we learn more. Click HERE or on any of the images to head to Amazon to order your own bevy of bakery bots bustling to burst your buttons.

Here's the product description from Amazon:
"Stuff brought to life: botbots are mischievous little Robots who came to life From everyday objects inside a shopping mall! These Transformers Robots are tiny, silly, and great at hiding!
Color change figures: each bakery bytes 5-pack includes 2 color change figures! Just rub the figure to reveal the hidden color.
Fun unboxing surprise: each botbots pack has a mystery character waiting to be discovered. Purchasers will randomly receive 1 of 4 different bakery bytes team 5-packs.
2-In-1 toy: botbots figures convert between 2 fun modes -- a robot and a random object. Lots to collect and 1 hidden character in each pack. Which botbots character is gonna pop out!?
Collectibles for boys and girls: these sharable, swappable, tradable botbots are great Transformers toys for boys and girls ages 5 and up to collect! Easy conversions for kids 5 years old and up."

One should take note of safety: this is the only Seibertron recommended combination of passions for both pie and robots currently available on the market. Word to the wise anything else is bound to clog up your ratchets and plug up your rotators.

Sweet! And ordered. I imaging this is going to hurt the very pricey ebay listing from the seibertron store. Now bring on the Lawn League please!!!

I'm hedging my bets. You can get the complete set with any one of the Bakery Bytes 5-packs and both Lawn League 8-packs. It isn't as efficient as if you followed TF-Wiki's best plan of one 8-pack and two 5-packs, but I figure with only two 8-packs to choose from, if I order 2, I stand a good chance of getting one of each. Of course, Hasbro will have to eventually release the Lawn League 8-packs in the US for this to work.

I ordered four of the five packs, and gratefully got 1 of each! So now I have all five Bakery Bites, and five of the Lawn League. Missing the shovel, mower, and flower. Anxiously waiting on the eight packs. So close to having EVERY Botbot! I know I didn’t need every five pack, but I love Botbots.

I went the other direction and only ordered 1 of the 5 packs. I'm taking my chances on getting 1 of each of the 8 packs if/when they become available and I'll also have every botbot.

Here is a description of the two Botbot packs revealed at the MCM 2019 London Comic Con. It includes the prices, release dates and gimmicks for each pack. These were sent to us from Hasbro.

Twenty bucks for six botbots? Yeah, I don't see those selling well.

nice, more toys that will go straight for clearance and overpopulate the never sold transformers toys in ebay...

Habro, make another G1 "legion class" combiner and see how it sells faster than you can ship it, just like you did with Terrorcons ... here some options

Aerialbots, Combaticons, Constructicons, Predacons , Protectobots, Stunticons, Technobots...

Is the blue one shown in hand supposed to he based on Snoopy's Doghouse from the Peanuts?

I thought it was a tent.

Didn't even know these were happening, most of the stores in my area have stopped selling them, and the ones that do still have series 1, series 2 if I'm lucky

D-Maximal_Primal wrote:... should be showing in your stores at any moment now, if they haven't arrived already.

"Any moment now" in my neck of the woods usually means "several weeks to never." Or maybe it just feels like several weeks. However, this close to the end of the year, "never" happens way too often.

Is a BotBots Series 4 checklist news?

Our friends at Hasbro sent us a special Transformers BotBots Series 3 promotional box. Included in the promo box were 4 8-packs, 4 5-packs, a case of 24 blind packs, and some special paperwork.

Other than this very unique promo box packaging (well, for Transformers toys, at least), the paperwork might be what interests Seibertronians the most at this point, since Series 3 started hitting retail back in September. Staying true to this being a "Christmas" promo, Hasbro went with a past, present and future them for the promo paperwork.

According to the included promo paperwork, several tribes are being retired. This includes the Shed Heads, Techie Team and Backpack Bunch. In addition to promoting several of the current tribes from Series 3, and the upcoming "Winner's Circle" tribe from the upcoming Series 4 Goldrush Games, there's also a promo sheet for 3 new tribes from Series 4 (Magic Tricksters, Movie Moguls and Science Alliance).

In addition to a Series 3 checklist, there was surprisingly a Series 4 checklist that includes the entire set, which hasn't been revealed before. We've included the entire list for your viewing pleasure below, along with images of the promo box.

This box is dope as hell.

Botbots series 4 is ramping up to close out the year and now the "Surprise Unboxing" 6-packs are available for immediate shipping from Amazon.com. You can buy the Gumball Machine by clicking here or pick up the Claw Machine by clicking this link. Each set features six Botbots, including one Winner's Circle gold painted Botbot, as well as four stickers.





Yours truly picked up two of each set and was fortunate enough to get one of each of the currently known sets in this assortment which works out to be two for each machine, making a total of four of these capsule sets. Let us know if you pick up any sets that don't match these content listings as it's always possible that true randomness has arrived since this latest series omits instructions for the figures. While no coding system appears to be in place on the packaging to help out if you find these on retail shelves, the contents can be determined by checking which Botbots are in the clear-colored capsules included in each set.

If you don't want to be surprised by the contents, the breakdown of each "Surprise Unboxing" set is as follows:

Gumball Machine Sets
In one set:

• Smore N' More (Clear capsule)
• Frostfetti Frostyface (Clear capsule)
• Goldenberry D'uhnut (Winner's Circle Botbot)
• Game Older
• Fancy Flutter
• King Cubano

and in the other set:

• Fancy Flutter (Clear capsule)
• Crumbly Yumbly (Clear capsule)
• Goldsferatu (Winner's Circle Botbot)
• Movie Munchster
• Smore N' More
• Disaster Master

Claw Machine Sets
In one set:

• Mr Memory Banks (Clear capsule)
• Blurray Murray (Clear capsule)
• Goldface (Winner's Circle Botbot)
• Miss Mixed
• Crabby Grabby
• Skitter Chatter

and in the other set:

• Skitter Chatter (Clear capsule)
• The Cobbler (Clear capsule)
• Gold Dexter (Winner's Circle Botbot)
• Blurray Murray
• Milton
• Snotty Stem

Good luck out there to those picking these up to grow their collection of series 4 Botbots and be sure to drop us a line using the site's contact form if you see these on brick and mortar retail shelves or have any kind of sighting for the series 4 8-Packs.

Love the character names they come up for these little bots. I'm not collecting this line ( I have a hard enough time with deluxe figures with my meaty claws ), but I can see the appeal for the younger bot lovers.

Botbots Series 4 is in full swing. We have written a few articles about that series already and where they can be purchased or where they were sighted. A summary of all that info with links will be below. For now, I want to bring to your attention some images of the 5 packs and 8 packs. The 5 packs have been available on Amazon for a little while and the 8 packs can be ordered at Entertainment Earth. Neither of these have been found at brick and mortar retail so far (if they have, please let us know).

The 5 packs are magic and science themed. The 8 packs are outdoor themed and movie theatre themed.

You can see the official images below. To put a name to the faces, we have the entire series 4 checklist here.

The Gumball and Claw Game multipacks are also part of series 4 and more info on what those include, along with links to buy them, can be found here.

The list of codes for the series 4 bling bags, already found at Target, can be found here.

So taking a look at what is in each blind pack, 5-pack, 8-pack and the gumball/claw, it looks like you will need both of the gumball and both of the claw unboxing packs in order to get a complete set of series 4 botbots. Frostfetti Frostyface, Crumbly Yumbly, Mr. Memory Banks and the Cobbler are all in a different pack in the clear capsules, and only appear to be included in the gumball and claw machine packs.

So for anyone looking to complete Series 4, I would recommend starting with the unboxing packs and fill in the rest from there.

I need to find that science set

D-Maximal_Primal wrote:I need to find that science set

Amazon has them in stock, but it would be a crapshoot on which ones you end up with. I rolled the dice and ended up with the set with the flask and the telescope. Now I'm just waiting on the 5 and 8 packs to show up at retail to complete the rest of the series.

Funny you mention that. I just got my 3rd and 4th of the gumball dispenser packs from Amazon today. I originally ordered 2 each of the claw and gumball sets thinking/hoping Amazon would send an unopened case, which arrived Saturday with one each of the claw sets, 2 of the same gumball sets. Tried my luck and ordered 2 more, and got one of each. So I'll be heading to Kohls to return 2 of them in the next few days.

So I was snooping around Entertainment Earth's listing for the Botbots Series 4 5-packs and 8-packs to see if they were in stock when I noticed that they are using "wave" instead of "series" like on the packaging, but also, they have the 5-packs as wave 4, but the 8-packs as wave 5, both coming in January 2020. But I also noticed couple Listings for Botbots wave 4 8-packs without any photos yet and due in February 2020.

I think they actually mixed up the waves on these listings and actually gave us some sneak peek info on some new tribe themes for series 4.

The link below is for 1 each of the Travel and Asian Food 8-packs.

So I'll call it now, Burrito Favrito from series 4 will be redecoed into an egg roll for sure. I just hope they don't get lazy and also redeco Pucksy yet another time into sushi, that mold has been in every series so far, give it a rest.

While Botbots Series 4 is only recently hitting shelves and online retail, listings for Series 5 have already started to appear at Entertainment Earth. While you may have just clicked that and noticed its "wave 4" verbiage, eagle-eyed Seibertronian TF-fan kev777 gave us a heads up that this listing appears to really be for Series 5, as its described contents are for two teams not yet released in previous assortments. TF-fan kev777 explains what to look for below:
