    "Toilet Troop" is a name I wish was real.

    Make the combiner, Fun Pub - oh, wait.

    I know I'm probably in the minority but I really hope they've figured out a way to expand the PotP Battletrap combination gimmick into smaller scale combiner teams.

    (Yes, I want Combiners to last forever, NO YOU SHUT UP!)

    Probably because it's so nonsensical they feel safe poking the bear.

    Yeah, I think Hasbro has been mostly nailing it with combiner teams.

    This just sounds like a codename for later stuff
    like when they named the AOE dinobots after Rocky characters to throw people off.

    They're probably the rumored $10 Micromaster Teams that are replacing scout class.

    Toilet Troop = construction vehicles
    Techie Team = military vehicles
    Greaser Gang = hotrods & motorcycles
    Jock Squad = sports cars

    If we do get Micromasters next, then expect Titan Class Omega Supreme with Micromaster Countdown.

    You know...When you think of it, it's funny just how much toilet related stuff actually exists within toy lines.

    You do realize people are on transformers fan sites are only fans and real adults with kids do not buy there kids toys and know where to buy there kids toys at hasbrotoyshop, bugbadtoystore, those real normal adults who buy there kids toys go to Walmart and target no place else.

    Point is normal adults will not know about these toys to buy them for kids if they wanted to buy to them all except for us transformers on fan sites only and people who go to conventions.

    If there will be adult who buy these for there kids it will fans of transformers fan sites

    I guess they gotta say they are... The shit.

    And if Shortround isn't a triple-changer, we also riot. I mean, Toilets need to turn into hovercrafts for some water sports.
