An autotransforming brick. Boy, the fandom is gonna LOVE these guys.

The Gravity Bots are toys sold as part of the Revenge of the Fallen toyline in 2009-2010. They revolve around a main gimmick that lets them autotransform entirely by the power of gravity. When you place the toy on a flat surface, it automatically transforms—into which mode depends on what side of the toy is on bottom. There is a switch on the bottom of both modes that prevents the toy from transforming until it is set down. The toys feature no articulation.

They are about the most fun things ever.
