Transformers BotBots Series 2 Promo Box and Full Checklist #BotBotsChallenge

SO JEALOUS. I need PB Junior and Sir Botcha. What is Hawt Mess? Is that a taco??

The Botbots are spawning out of control! Earlier today, Seibertron showcased the entirety of the Wave 2 Botbots, and it seems as though the Wave 2 display was only the beginning of the Botbot news!

The news we bring to you now is that of a Botbots Sticker book, which is found on Amazon.com. The book is priced at $9.99 and is said to contain over 500 stickers of our beloved Botbots! It also is supposed to contain some information on the 11 different Botbot tribes with 123 different Botbots included. You can check out the cover below, and read the description as well.

The sticker sheet is set to arrive September 24, 2019.

When ENERGON hits the mall, all the things inside become more than meets the eye! Candy treats, sports equipment, electronics, food, school supplies, and more come to life as little TRANSFORMERS robots--the BOTBOTS! This Official Sticker Book contains everything you need to know about 11 different BOTBOTS tribes and 123 different BOTBOTS--plus more than 500 stickers!!! This book is a must-have for 6 to 9 year old fans and collectors of the TRANSFORMERS BOTBOTS toys!

I'm an adult and I'm growing obsessed with these. I don't know if this is something I should be concerned about or not.

Also, one of them is named "Steve from Accounting". That is amazing.

Looks like they accidentally used Lolly Licks's stock photography for Lolly Mint on the checklist. Oops.

I'm guessing that means it only covers through series 2, since there's supposed to be 190+ total in 2019, plus there's a total of 16 tribes if you count all three series (18 if you also include the Bakery Bytes and Lawn League). Still, seems interesting.

BotBots series 2 isn't quite in full swing just yet, but after a prior sighting of the 5 packs at a Target in California we're back again with another new sighting. This time it's thanks to Kevin Goddard for sending in our first US finding of series 2 8 packs! These were also found at a Target store, this time in Woodinville, WA which should serve as notice to anyone in the West Coast looking for new BotBots. Along with photos of the sets he picked up he also included shots of all the secret figures he got in each set.

Enjoy the photos and as a reminder we're still looking for sightings of the single blind boxes so let us know through the contact form if you find them out in the wilds!

saw some in a Target in Dublin, Ca. last night, 03/02/2019 10:34PM

The BotBots website has updated and with it they've added a little more depth and character to the figures. Each and every figure in waves 1 and 2 now have a little bio describing the characters. There's some interesting details in there and even a few unexpectedly cool gender choices. I won't give anything away here, you'll definitely want to read them for yourself. Just click the team symbol and then the character. With over 190 figures planed to be released through 2019 they're definitely building up some reading material.





They've also added printable colored check lists for each wave complete with pictures of each figure in both modes and their rarity. And you can let us know if you find anything interesting in the bios in the Energon Pub forums below.

Not sure if it is newsworthy or not, but I found the Botbots Series 2 single blind packs at a Target today in the Chicago area. No sign of the 5 or 8 packs yet in my area.

After initial US sightings of BotBots series 2 eight and five packs at retail we now have our first sighting of the single blind packs. Fellow Seibertronian TF-fan kev777 found the singles at a Chicago area Target for $2.99 each.



With that all packs for series 2 has been found at US retail and they should be hitting retail saturation before too long. But that's not all for BotBots as series 3 will be showing up before we know it! If you've spotted any of series 2 at retail be sure to share your findings in the Energon Pub forums below and in the sightings section of the forum.

Did these also have imprinted/written numbers on the back of the packaging? If so, did you make a list of who goes with what?

Yes, these ones also have numbers. This time they are actually printed on the top of the back. Somewhere earlier on this thread is the list of who is who. Tfwiki is also a great source of a list of who is who, as well as who is unique to the blind bags and the 5 or 8 packs.

Neat!

No need to go to TFwiki, Seibertron has got you guys covered for the codes

I'm really surprised by the fact that I still have not bought any more botbots, just the original 3 I got in December. I want some, but I've never picked them up.

I really need to get the Unicron and Penguin, and the donut and toilet paper at some point

Got it from in demand toys from facebook, new arcade themed botbots.

Where did you get these images from Bacem? I love how they've gone all out on the packing, even putting directional buttons and the like.

Now that I look again, I see that you put that on the top of your post sorry about that, still half asleep Thanks for sharing it

Thanks to fellow Seibertron user, bacem, we've learned that In Demand Toys Facebook page has dropped some new stock photos of the latest set of Transformers Botbots the Arcade Renegades Suprise!







This team was revealed during the New York 2019 Toy Fair, and features Botbots turning into items you would usually find there, from pinball machines, arcade cabinets to good items like cotton candy! There's also another eight botbots whose designs are hidden for the moment, so the set contains sixteen botbots on total.

The package itself carries on the theme as well as the blisters that house the Botbots are moulded to match the buttons on a game controller! This attention to detail matches what we've seen recently from hasbro, like the recent reveal of Transformers x Ghostbusters MP 10 where the packaging turns into a proton pack.

What do you think of these? Will you be lining up your quarters to get these guys? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

Series 2 has been painful to locate. Probably 3/4 of the way done with it but if I'd found singles and 8 packs at more than one store each it'd be nice.

Anyone have a clue if the last three Lawn League bots are ever coming out?

I'm way too excited about a Cotton Candy botbot

Ah, so now Transformers are truly striving to reclaim Convertors territory, and a GoBots faction name to boot! Of course, the Spies' Tilt was actually playable in pinball machine mode.

I guess this guy's supposed to look sick/dizzy from being played/tilted...but he also looks kind of scared. I'll never be able to look at him without thinking of that one scene in the middle of the live action Wicked City movie.

Looking at them collectively, all I can see is a possible concept for the next Wreck It Ralph sequel.

Especially if the tip of the handle is small enough to fit in a 5mm port.

Hasbro missed a golden opportunity with the Clogstopper.

Once again, "In Demand Toys" on Facebook has provided us with some nice in-package shot of upcoming Transformers products. This time, we're happy to show off some of the new 5-Packs of BotBots Series 3! These tiny, collectible, and adorable little mischief makers of the mall have a noticeable autumn motif this time around, featuring the likes of a transforming candycorn, a jack-o-lantern, a bushel of apples, and even a TV tuned to a fireplace video! We can also see a piano, a cupcake, and a jack-in-the-box, among other assorted odds and ends (definite emphasis on the odd!). Of course, each of these 5-packs contains a mystery "Lost Bot" figure. We won't know who they are until these hit retail! Take a look at this latest offering of BotBots below!



Have you been collecting BotBots so far? Which are your favorites and how many do you have? Let us know in the comments that follow, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest news on all things Transformers!

Do you Bot Bots fans remember about the Bakery Bytes? They were an exclusive subset from series 1 that the US has yet to get at retail and had a colour change gimmick. Most bots were redecos but there were new molds like the mixer and rolling pin. Well, these have been found at Toysrus. Unlike what might have been inferred, these are not series 2, since the bubble is red, like series 1. They are 4 different 5 packs, each at $12.99 CAD. This specific sighting comes from Montreal Quebec.

It did, thanks a bunch

Thanks to the work of Jtprime17 in the TFW2005 boards, we have news regarding some insight on the Transformers San Diego Comic-Con exclusives for 2019. Using the website, Panjiva, who partnered with S&P Global to have information on global supply chains, and their shipments. This leads to Jtprime17's discovery, where, as seen here, as well as the image below, there is a shipment to the United States by Hasbro. There are also to other results, but aren't connected to Hasbro.



What is your take of this? Does this news make you happy, or sad that you may miss out on these xclusive BotBots? Whatever it is, tell us in the Pub forums below!

Now, I'm guessing this... isn't the Arcade Renegade set? Either way, I'm not going to SDCC, but I have a friend who I think is, so I might still have an avenue to get these. There's hope.

Open the floodgates and let loose the adorable overflow of Transformers Bot Bots heading your way. Just in from Collider we have images of the Transformers Bot Bots exclusives to the SDCC2019: the Con Crew!

Also shown in the article is the new set called the Arcade Renegades which should be listed soon on Amazon. As has been the standard so far to go with the cuteness of the characters themselves are an assortment of cute names to go along with them.

In the Arcade Renegades we have KNOTZEL the pretzel, DRIVER TED the racing game, CLAWSOME the claw game, TUTU PUFFZ the cotton candy, OLD COOL the cabinet game, BANK SHOT the pinball machine, CACKLE CORN the popcorn, GREED FEED the ticket monster, 24K-BIT the gold coin, TANGRY TART the lollipop, SHERIFF SUGARFEET the doughnut, SWEET CHEAT the candy bar, PIXELFIN the hat, PAPA CLICK the camera, THE FIZZ the soda cup and WRIST BANNED the wrist band.













The Con Crew are broken into three teams and each is dressed in their own cosplay outfit. We have the celebrity-obsessed MEET N’ GREETS, the FANTASTIC FUELERS, and the LINE LEAGUE. The Line League has CAPTAIN CARTRIDGE, VIGITENTE the tent and CON-PACKTOR the backpack. Fantastic Fuelers has COFEEMUS PRIME the coffee cup dressed as Optimus Prime, CAB O’NATE the energy drink, HAL A. PENO the spicy chips, and SUMTHIN’ FISHY the fish taco. The Meet N’ Greets have SCRIBZILLA the marker, BOTARAZZI the camera, and INKY INKERSON the graphic novel.



























Will you be making it to the Comic-Con this year for these? Be sure to share your views with the Seibertron crew in the forum.

BotBots Series 3 has been found in the US. So far, it is just the blind packaged single issues and they were found at target in San Antonio. These can be easily distinguished from the previous two sets by having an orange bubble. The person who found them, D3VC0N from the TFW2005 message boards, identified them all for us, writing their names and what they turn into (which is much easier to identify them as). You can see some of these bots in the promotional images below.

Latte Spice Whirl (Orange coffee cup) - 22
Disgusto Desserto (spoiled cannoli) - 5
Rink Stink (blue backpack) - 23
Strike Four (red bat repaint) - 7
Wizengreen (Christmas tree) - 14
Sensei Spiney (pineapple) - 20
Smerg the Sad (Potted plant repaint from series 1) - 2
Calamity Keys (Brown piano) - 10
Shushifier (pink pacifier) - 17
Drippy Pup (Sippy cup) - 19
Makeover n. Over (brown makeup brush repaint) - 11

Dingledeedoo (Holiday Bell (plunger repaint)) - 6
Treat Elite (pretzel bag) - 21
Q.U.R.O.B.O 6000 (basic toy blocks) - 15
Greeny Rex (Blue Stinkosaurus Rex repaint) - 1
Quackles (rubber duck) - 16
Slimey Slurps (Red Toxic Slushy repaint) - 9
Axwell (light blue rock swagger repaint) - 12
Choc-o-lawless (chocolate syrup bottle) - 4

Citrus Guzzlerush (light green water bottle repaint) - 8
Nampy (baby crib of death) - 18
D-Pad Chad (Red game console (arcade renegade botbot repaint?)) - 24

Just picked up most of these in NC, I'd guess they're a more or less simultaneous release for Targets that stock the individual Botbots.

Any clue on whether the SDCC botbots will be available online?

TF-fan kev777 wrote:Any clue on whether the SDCC botbots will be available online?

Yes but not until September

Fellow Seibertronians! Yours truly has discovered an intriguing piece of news, this time about a new 8-pack of Botbots being discovered. Thanks to TFW2005 Boards prime roller, we now know of the existence of an 8-pack of Botbots, rather than the usual 5-pack that is currently in retail. This 8-pack, found at a ToysR US in Taipei, Taiwan, represents the Lawn League and includes 3 all-new molds.











This pack retails for NT$599, which translates to roughly $19.27 USD. We currently do not have any street dates on these packs, or what other kinds of packs will be coming, but we will certainly keep you posted on any updates that come up.

Will you be picking up these new packs, or will you be skipping on these? Tell us in the discussion below.

2 colour change figures?!?

If you want a lot of BotBots in little time then you'll want to buy in bulk. And it doesn't get much bulkier than the massive arcade themed BotBots Arcade Renegades 16 pack featuring eight visible and eight blind pack figures. This set was first announced back in April (after some of the figures appeared at Toy Fair) and now it has been found at retail for the first time. Thanks to Tygar128 we have our first sighting coming in from a Hong Kong shop. The price is reported at $258 HKD ($33 USD) and will likely retail at $29.99 USD. The set will probably be available to the rest of the world within the next couple months.



If you're excited about the Arcade Renegades 16 pack then sound off in the Energon Pub forums below! And if you have sightings of your own to report then feel free to tip us off

The arcade 16 pack is available now on Amazon.

I got my set today. I love the package design, but I have to set them free.

What about the Series 3 BotBots Challenge Box, dosen’t it have importance too!?

Wow, I guess collecting a complete set of Arcade Renegades is virtually impossible? There are 16 figures in the line, but only 12 of those in each package, and they're all exclusive to that set. I had no idea!

Still happy with the set, but I really would have liked some of those other characters too.

https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Arcade_Renegades

I love the way all of these look but I haven’t bought any botbots yet what do you all like about them? I’m always like ah dang maybe next time but I need to try these out they just look too fun.

No different than buying multiples of other packs to get the one you are missing.

Actually, the 16 packs and the arcade renegades are a little different than the previous assortments in that it looks like the arcade renegades only show up in the 16 packs and not anywhere else. Also, because all 6 versions of the package have the same 8 figures visible, it really is a crapshoot unless someone can determine a code to figure out which version 1-6 you have. This will be important for completionists because it actually looks like version 6 of the package is all 16 arcade renegades. I haven't opened mine yet, so I don't know which assortment I got yet, well my daughter got since it is her birthday present. I'll know which one it is next Friday. There is a code printed on the back of mine that is 91551. I'm not sure if that will be useful in determining which assortment I have or not, but I'll be sure to update which blind ones we got once the birthday girl opens them up.

Edit: It is possible that some of the arcade renegades could be the blind packed ones in the 5 and 8 packs which are currently unknown.

I found the wave 3 Botbos 8-packs at Target today! Someones little girl is going to have a great birthday on Friday.
