Blokees (布鲁可 Bùlǔkě), sometimes known as Bloks, is a Chinese toy company that produces a range of buildable action figures from different licensed properties including Ultraman, Kamen Rider, Marvel, Naruto, Sesame Street, and most relevant here, Transformers.
Their Transformers effort launched in mid-2023 with the Galaxy Version and Classic Class lines of buildable figures. Their product range has expanded rapidly ever since, with new releases dropping every few months.
Outside of China, these figures have seen distribution across territories such as Southeast Asia, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
Release dates listed below reflect product debuts in China; other territories may see release simultaneously, soon thereafter, or wayyyy later.
Product Lines
Classic Class
Designed as easy to build entry level model kits, Classic Class offers detailed 4.5 inch figures of characters across the gamut of the Transformers' cinematic history. Each figure features a torso that lights up upon shaking, causing their chest and eyes to glow. Large stands are included with every release, alongside translucent stand effects that unfortunately do not light up.

Galaxy Version
Galaxy Version is a series of buildable 4" figures released in nine-figure blind box waves. Focusing primarily on Generation 1 (with the occasional detour), these snap-build kits are built on a standard body template, with 22 points of articulation. A select figure in each wave also has a chase variant, featuring extra accessories and a metallic paintjob.
Shining Version
Shining Version launched in early 2024, with six blind-packed figures per wave each equipped with the light-up torsos of Classic Class figures. These figures consist mostly of parts from Galaxy Version, boasting new decos and additional accessories. Starting in Wave 2, wholly new figures have been added to the mix—time will tell if these will be released in GV later. Metallic chase figures drop at a rate of 1 in every 6 cases.

Action Edition
Launched in 2024, Action Edition delivers a larger model kit with a more involved build experience compared to their other offerings, with accessories and features galore. A sneaky magnetic component in their base's faction symbol activates their light features, vigorous shaking not required.

Galaxy Version Defender
Launched in late 2024, Galaxy Version Defender features downright adorable buildable figures that stand at roughly half the height of Galaxy Version while retaining a lot of the articulation. In addition, Defender introduces buildable alt modes as well, with compatible accessories and ports. These blind box waves include twelve figures per case, with one guaranteed chase variant per case from a pool of up to four different variants.
