    THIS. He's proof there's magic in the hands of their designers. We mock Hasbro and Takara Tomy for the distribution and business acumen, a time or two, but their designers are the ones who actually have it in the bag. Doggone, that's fantastic!

    Which is funny, because I've seen kids grabbing these. They're fun little toys, take up no space and make great props for bigger transformers.

    That's alright if you don't like them though, everyone else will certainly be having plenty of fun with them. Ta-ta! :D

    Actually according to their bios, Duh'Ball is the brains and Duh'nut is the brawn. So like Moe and Curly.

    We need a Sprinkleberry Larry, now!

    Nah,that's Javasaurus Rex,who makes me want to watch a movie full of dinosaurs powered by coffee.
    I feel the same way with Atomic Freeze. I was doing a good job by avoiding all of Series 1,but then...I saw him. Hasbro can't just introduce a radioactive Transformer in any given line and expect me to ignore it. Especially when he's bright green.

    The desperate cash grab by Hasbro to rip off the Grossery Gang are poor quality plastic globs that look ugly in both modes, have zero playability and take up good shelf space for real Transformers. I was initially excited for these figures but after getting a couple multipacks I saw how lame these were. Within a week they were packed away within a bin and haven't seen the light of day since. If Hasbro is this desperate to try to steal the Grossery Gang crowd I wish they would have done so with tarnishing the good Transformers name.

    ...but they're what, three/Four bucks? This is nothing new for Hasbro, they've been doing stuff like this for years to fill the cheap toy/allowance budget. The original Legends class (not the renamed Scout class as it is currently), Cyberverse Legion class, etc.

    I mean, at least the BotBots are unique and Transform. That's more than those nearly $20 non transforming figures of the G1 Evergreen designs at places like Walmart.

    Lol what the fuck are REAL transformers and why do you think these would take up their REAL space? What were you even expecting for a god damn children’s catch them all toyline? These have good paint, good plastic, creative designs and they’re done well overall for their purpose. This is far from a desperate cash grab. And as for tarnishing the brand there’s been worse shit than this.
