    Nothing big, but Aldi has those cheap 4.5 inch "evergreen" toys that have been at the dollar stores for $3.99. I'd say that these are at Happy Meal level. I think Botbots are much better made. I got the transforming cannoli and plunger (I never imagined I'd say anything like that).

    Also, I'm sort of ticked off that Hasbro didn't make the Botbot plunger's handle 5mm. It's just a bit too thick to fit in hand peg holes. That's a huge missed opportunity.

    I got the Plunger from one of the 5 packs from Amazon. He's the bonus figure in one of the sugar shocks teams.

    That's probably not vandalism, packages get smashed all the time in retail.

    It looks like Hasbro did a smart thing with Botbots. I'm surprised how all the toys this Christmas seem to be cute mini toy packs and blind bags. The aisles are full of them. Should I be bothered that a large number of them are poo-based?

    Right?? There's so many of them that have something to do with poop. Then there's a bunch of kids games that are poop based as well. There's the dog that poops, there's the "don't step in the poop" game. I think we're almost to Idiocracy.

    Yeah the amount of poop themed toys out now is concerning me.
