Transformers: BotBots Official Sticker Book is a children's activity book published by Random House in 2019.
Overview
[edit]Following an opening spread giving the backstory and a map of the mall, the first part of the book is a complete listing of the first two Series of BotBots characters (not including the "Series 1.5" store-exclusive Bots), grouped together by "tribe". Each character has their full-body art featured without and obscuring, and a bio. The bios are almost identical to their online bios, only with the addition of a few minor bullet points:
- Type: the general kind of item they turn into
- Team: the team they belong to, which is a bit redundant; the Lost Bots have their former teams confirmed here
- Power: a special ability, which isn't always terribly "special" depending on the Bot
The last twelve pages of the book are taken up with lots and lots of stickers ("Over 500 stickers!"). Each team gets a full page of stickers using pretty much all of the art assets used on the toy packaging, with the twelfth page taken up with multi-team group shots.
Notes
[edit]- This book was clearly put together very early in the line's development, as Kikmee and Dinger show up as well; both 'bots were present in early Series 1 promotional art, but were pushed back to Series 3. Kikmee is also still listed under his original Lost Bots team, rather than the Playroom Posse he ended up in.
- According to the mall map, it has 71 storefronts inside. As of Series 5, there are 30 store-based teams altogether (33 if you include the three Con Crew teams, but they... don't really fit in a mall). There's a whole lot of space left to fill!
