Transformers: BotBots is a toyline set for release in late 2018, involving small, cartoony, super deformed robot characters who transform into mundane items. These 1-inch tall soft-plastic bots are marketed in the same style as the insanely popular Shopkins toys and other collectible mini-toys.
Overview
Each figure in the line belongs to one of several sub-factions organized by their choice of alternate mode. There are three means of obtaining each toy:
- Single-bot Blind Bag Mystery Figures
- 5-Packs with two characters from the pack's theme team, two figures from two other teams, and an additional blind-packed rare "Lost Bot"
- 8-Packs with two characters from the pack's theme team, five figures from five other teams, and an additional blind-packed rare "Lost Bot"
Toys
As each individual toy can appear in multiple multi-packs, we're simply listing them by team, with which packs they come in listed on the individual entries.

Notes
- Hasbro press materials say that "Series 1" features 61 brand-new characters. [1] However, promo art shows several Bots who are not pictured in any actual product photography, presumably the rare "Lost Bots", which brings the number of bots up to 63. Hm.
- All of the characters introduced thus far are entirely new, separate from any traditional "Generation 1" characters: a rarity in today's Transformers toy market.
