Transformers: BotBots (toyline)

Don't eat the ones that turn into food, or you'll get botbotulism!

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. 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.
