Editing Forever Clever

'''Forever Clever''' is a company that offers various branded trinkets, including a ''wide'' variety of cheap ''Transformers'' doodads, commonly found in dollar stores. Many of their items are made to be easily reskinned with a multitude of brands, though they do make original, Transformers-specific products.

NOTE: Use [[Jada Toys]] as an aid in article layout, mostly. Also reference how character merch pages handle weird individual nothing products like Forever Clever sometimes has.

==''Robots in Disguise (2015)''==
*'''Flash Cards''' (2016)
Forever Clever released three packs of themed flash cards, one focusing on addition, one focused on subtraction, and one focused on colors, numbers and shapes. Each pack came with 36 cards.

*'''Mystery I.D. Tags''' (2016)
Mystery I.D. Tags are dog tags released in blind bags. Each bag comes with two tags on one chain. There are 36 tags in total, each with different designs.

==The Last Knight==
===Wall Walkers===
Released in [[2017]], Wall Walkers all use the same base, with details printed on their torsos and legs. They have plain-colored legs and arms and suction cups on their hands and feet so they can stick to walls.

==''Authentics''==
*'''Sticker Kit''' (2018)
The Sticker Kit includes a sticker pad and 14 sheets of stickers. Multiple variants have been released, though they appear to only change the sticker pad and not the included stickers.

*'''4 Pack Jumbo Chalk Set''' (2018)
The Jumbo Chalk Set includes 4 pieces of chalk and holders based on [[Megatron (G1)/merchandise#Jumbochalk|Megatron]], [[Bumblebee (G1)/merchandise#Jumbochalk|Bumblebee]], [[Soundwave (G1)/merchandise#Jumbochalk|Soundwave]] and [[Optimus Prime (G1)/merchandise#Jumbochalk|Optimus Prime]].

*'''60 Piece Jumbo Chalk Sticks''' (2018)
Totally normal chalk in a Transformers themed box. There isn't any gimmick here, it's just 60 pieces of chalk.

*'''20 Piece Jumbo Chalk Sticks''' (2018)

See above but there's less of it.

*'''5 Pack Shaped Chalk''' (2019)
Chalk shaped like Transformers characters. Includes [[Megatron (G1)/merchandise#shapechalk|Megatron]] as gray, [[Bumblebee (G1)/merchandise#shapechalk|Bumblebee]] as yellow, [[Optimus Prime (G1)/merchandise#shapechalk|Optimus Prime]] as blue, [[Starscream (G1)/merchandise#shapechalk|Starscream]] as purple and [[Windblade (G1)#shapechalk|Windblade]] as red.

*'''Autobot Bubble Blower''' (2020)
The Autobot Bubble Blower is a generic red bubble machine, with a gray interior and dark blue bubble wands. Bubble solution is included.

It has a small Transformers sticker on it, featuring [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]], [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]], and the word Transformers. That is the only thing besides its box that makes it Transformers related at all. A bubble blower that is identical in design, sans-sticker, can be found produced by Grafix without Transformers branding. Besides the coloration and sticker, it is also identical to the Rescue Bots Academy bubble blower.

Despite being marketed as an ''Autobot'' Bubble Blower, its packaging consistently features the Decepticon insignia where the Autobot insignia was likely intended.

Beyond that, it is basically plastered in Generation 1 stock art and Transformers logos, and also curiously enough, what seems to be the ''[[Transformers Authentics]]'' logo.

The back of the box contains a non-sequitur blurb about an Autobot unit called the Elite. Or the Elitie, they spell it both ways. ''Probably'' meant to be the first one.

[[File:NoImages.jpg|upright=1|thumb]]
