Bin Weevils was a virtual world browser game developed in the United Kingdom, launched in 2004.
Bin Weevils included promotional content for several Hasbro properties, including My Little Pony, Nerf, Furby, and several different promotions for Transformers.
There was also a spinoff title, named Weevil World, released in 2017. It also had a promotional tie-in with Transformers.
Bin Weevils was shut down in 2021.
Gameplay
[edit]Bin Weevils
[edit]Bin Weevils, true to its name, took place in a trash bin, and player avatars took the form of colorful weevils. They could chat, play games, and earn Mulch to buy items to decorate their nest. The world included a mix of both 2D and 3D areas.
Like many virtual worlds, it had a premium membership that allowed players to access more features. It also made money with sponsored content. These sponsorships frequently included games, videos in their in-game theaters, or scavenger hunts to find various items themed around the thing being promoted.
Weevil World
[edit]Weevil World was similar in art style and basic content to Bin Weevils, but had a different, 2D platformer like layout. The game had more customization options for dressing the player Weevil, who walked on two legs and was generally more humanoid than the avatars found in Bin Weevils itself.
Transformers content
[edit]Cyber Missions
[edit]The first documented Transformers promotion occurred in 2010. They aired episodes of Transformers: Cyber Missions in Rigg's Palladium, a cinema area.<ref>{{#if: |""—|}}{{#if: https://web.archive.org/web/20101226233006/http://blog.binweevils.com:80/2010/04/transformers-cyber-mission/ |Bin Weevils Blog|Bin Weevils Blog}}{{#if: |, |}}{{#if: Transformers Cyber Mission Premiere on Bin Weevils |, "Transformers Cyber Mission Premiere on Bin Weevils"|}}{{#if: 2010 |, 2010{{#if: 4 |/{{#switch:{{#len:4}}|1=04|4}}{{#if: 15|/{{#switch:{{#len:15}}|1=015|15}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: https://web.archive.org/web/20101226233006/http://blog.binweevils.com:80/2010/04/transformers-cyber-mission/ ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://web.archive.org/web/20101226233006/http://blog.binweevils.com:80/2010/04/transformers-cyber-mission/%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://web.archive.org/web/20101226233006/http://blog.binweevils.com:80/2010/04/transformers-cyber-mission/%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://web.archive.org/web/20101226233006/http://blog.binweevils.com:80/2010/04/transformers-cyber-mission/%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://web.archive.org/web/20101226233006/http://blog.binweevils.com:80/2010/04/transformers-cyber-mission/%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}}</ref> A billboard featuring Bumblebee was placed in front of the shopping mall to promote them.<ref>{{#if: |""—|}}{{#if: https://youtu.be/WGbkULJAOek?si=pdPlSwfsnuKs930X&t=40 |ronnoc3k8|ronnoc3k8}}{{#if: Youtube |, Youtube|}}{{#if: How to rate your own nests on binweevils |, "How to rate your own nests on binweevils"|}}{{#if: 2010 |, 2010{{#if: 04 |/{{#switch:{{#len:04}}|1=004|04}}{{#if: 19|/{{#switch:{{#len:19}}|1=019|19}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: https://youtu.be/WGbkULJAOek?si=pdPlSwfsnuKs930X&t=40 ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://youtu.be/WGbkULJAOek?si=pdPlSwfsnuKs930X&t=40%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://youtu.be/WGbkULJAOek?si=pdPlSwfsnuKs930X&t=40%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://youtu.be/WGbkULJAOek?si=pdPlSwfsnuKs930X&t=40%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://youtu.be/WGbkULJAOek?si=pdPlSwfsnuKs930X&t=40%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}}</ref>
Kre-O
[edit]A Kre-O Transformers event took place in 2011. The Dirt Valley area was redecorated for the occasion, including a link to the official website and a countdown to the Kre-O Transformers taking over, though what exactly that entailed is unknown.<ref>{{#if: |""—|}}{{#if: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuYF4PMAXrM |XDKnowYourLimitz|XDKnowYourLimitz}}{{#if: Youtube |, Youtube|}}{{#if: binweevils track 3 racing glitch |, "binweevils track 3 racing glitch"|}}{{#if: 2011 |, 2011{{#if: 08 |/{{#switch:{{#len:08}}|1=008|08}}{{#if: 3|/{{#switch:{{#len:3}}|1=03|3}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuYF4PMAXrM ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuYF4PMAXrM%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuYF4PMAXrM%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuYF4PMAXrM%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IuYF4PMAXrM%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}}</ref> It was the first Transformers event to use the common 'scavenger hunt' base of finding themed items.

Beast Hunters
[edit]A scavenger hunt event promoting Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters took place in 2013. Players found bubbles hidden around the map, containing various Transformers characters. The outside of the mall featured Optimus Prime, but it was not decorated to the same extent that the KRE-O event was.<ref>{{#if: |""—|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/transformers-beast-hunters-hunt-answers |hf556|hf556}}{{#if: Bin Weevils Company |, Bin Weevils Company|}}{{#if: Transformers Beast Hunters Hunt Answers! |, "Transformers Beast Hunters Hunt Answers!"|}}{{#if: 2013 |, 2013{{#if: 06 |/{{#switch:{{#len:06}}|1=006|06}}{{#if: 03|/{{#switch:{{#len:03}}|1=003|03}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/transformers-beast-hunters-hunt-answers ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/transformers-beast-hunters-hunt-answers%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/transformers-beast-hunters-hunt-answers%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/transformers-beast-hunters-hunt-answers%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/03/transformers-beast-hunters-hunt-answers%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}}</ref> This Optimus Prime was not only there as decoration, as it led to a toy giveaway, where Bin Weevils would give Beast Hunters figures to 10 players weekly.<ref>{{#if: |""—|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/transformers-beast-hunters-competition/ |Bin Weevils Company|Bin Weevils Company}}{{#if: |, |}}{{#if: Transformers Beast Hunters Competition! |, "Transformers Beast Hunters Competition!"|}}{{#if: 2013 |, 2013{{#if: 06 |/{{#switch:{{#len:06}}|1=006|06}}{{#if: 18|/{{#switch:{{#len:18}}|1=018|18}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/transformers-beast-hunters-competition/ ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/transformers-beast-hunters-competition/%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/transformers-beast-hunters-competition/%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/transformers-beast-hunters-competition/%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/06/18/transformers-beast-hunters-competition/%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}} Mirror of a post from the official Bin Weevils Blog.</ref>
Construct-Bots
[edit]Another Transformers event took place in 2013, this one promoting Construct-Bots. It involved a scavenger hunt where players found Transformers, similar to the Beast Hunters and Kre-O events before it. It also included its own separate area, the Construct Bot Cybertron HQ. This area featured Optimus Prime and Megatron, and included quizzes and a multiplayer minigame known as the Energon Battle Arena, where players could choose between the Autobots and Decepticons.<ref>{{#if: |""—|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/transformers-construct-bots/ |Bin Weevils Company|Bin Weevils Company}}{{#if: |, |}}{{#if: Transformers Construct Bots! |, "Transformers Construct Bots!"|}}{{#if: 2013 |, 2013{{#if: 09 |/{{#switch:{{#len:09}}|1=009|09}}{{#if: 4|/{{#switch:{{#len:4}}|1=04|4}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/transformers-construct-bots/ ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/transformers-construct-bots/%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/transformers-construct-bots/%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/transformers-construct-bots/%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/transformers-construct-bots/%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}} Mirror of a post from the official Bin Weevils Blog.</ref><ref>{{#if: |""—|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/transformers-construct-bots-energon-battle-arena/ |Bin Weevils Company|Bin Weevils Company}}{{#if: |, |}}{{#if: Transformers Construct Bots Energon Battle Arena! |, "Transformers Construct Bots Energon Battle Arena!"|}}{{#if: 2013 |, 2013{{#if: 09 |/{{#switch:{{#len:09}}|1=009|09}}{{#if: 11|/{{#switch:{{#len:11}}|1=011|11}}|}}}}|}}{{#if: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/transformers-construct-bots-energon-battle-arena/ ||}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/transformers-construct-bots-energon-battle-arena/%7C7%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/transformers-construct-bots-energon-battle-arena/%7C8%7C11}}%7Cweb.archive= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/transformers-construct-bots-energon-battle-arena/%7C7%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#switch:{{#sub:https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/2013/09/11/transformers-construct-bots-energon-battle-arena/%7C8%7C10}}%7Carchive.is= (archive link)|}}{{#if: | (dead link)}} Mirror of a post from the official Bin Weevils Blog.</ref>
