    Now that I'm looking at it, it looks like a duffle bag, it has a handle on top with straps down both sides of the front... I hope Greeny TeX isn't a toilet troop member.. I'm absolutely dieing for at least one more newer mold.. I'm still curious as to whom the grey Nobeeoh is from? , toilet troops, or idk, thought it might be a Swagstylers lostbot but then we all saw that Bottocorrect had a pinkish repaint, which is ( imo) nail polish.. Idk, and the bird house must be a ShedHead, unless its a tent, then it'd most likely belong to the Jocksquad.. I'm dieting to know what all goodies we have coming our way :)  any ideas guys and gals

    The gray Nobeoh seems to the be the Lost Bot rep for the Seasons Greeters (notice it’s in the same place that say, Hamurai is on the Spoiled Rottens Packages) somebody floated the idea that it might be a Halloween decorative tombstone earlier and I really like the sounds of that idea.

    Do you have a link to said package showing him in the bottom left hand corner of a Season Greeters pack?

    Google Image Result for https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-0kvv9/images/stencil/1280x1280/products/296860/419677/apippxo8f__87454.1558109359.jpg?c=2&imbypass=on


    By the GODs your right! The Lostbot that's affiliated to each tribe is always in the bottom left hand corner, with Dimlit being an exception.. Even though the Jocksquad was missing one on their pack and now knowing he's a repaint for the Jocksquad in Series 3, I think its safe to say he's an unspoken member.. Just imo any way.. But I'm curious as to how Nobeeoh/Be-oh could completely resemble a Tombstone? He's not flat surfaced enough in my opinion, hummm, interesting none the less.

    Am I the only one surprised we haven't seen any KOs yet?

    I mentioned it a while ago, perhaps in the ko thread itself... imagine a 3rd party ko-ing them, but oversizing and adding 5mm foldout pegs to interact with other mainline figures.

    Yeah, I'm daydreaming

    I really am, actually. I was hoping for some 3rd parties to take them on too, making their own Botbots and possibly some scaled up, more poseable versions as well.

    In all seriousness, I can overlook the little "deodorant cap" if it is indeed a tombstone, but the dial right smack in the center is a bit too much to ignore.

    Also, I think the Christmas tree is a Lost Bot for the Seasons Greeters.

    I’m with you in terms of the obvious deodorant molding but there’s no getting around the fact that it’s definitely the Seasons Greeter’s Lost Bot one way or another. It can’t be the Christmas tree as that guy was seen in the Season’s Greeters group shot and none of the Lost Bots for any group were in those (Hamurai and the orange triceratops were absent from the Spoiled Rottens, Ol Tic Toc and the pink bottocorrect were absent from the Swag stylers etc.)

    No better feeling than seeing a new box of blind-packs, only to find out the ones you're looking for have already been bought.

    Any reason why the Walmart app says that they have series 3 5-packs in stock at a Walmart near me? (I checked it and they only had series 2 5-packs)

    Point taken, though I think plans have changed slightly since the Toyfair press releases. For example, Halloween Knight was listed among the Series 3 blind packs (that's the only reason we know his name), but the images don't show him in them.

    That’s true it seems he was switched with the Christmas tree

    Yeah, but I concur, he's definitely not the Lostbot.

    Finally got the last 8-pack I needed. Noticed that Game Over can't stand to save their lives, but as soon as I stand Outtacontrol up, it stays up. What the heck?

    I just had a thought. It may not be a Tombstone, it could be a Ghost party decoration.

    Found 8 packs at my local target tonight!! They can also be ordered at target.com but you get a random pack. You can always return them to the store if you need to. Had a whole box of series 1 blind packs and a bunch of series 1 5-packs tonight as well. Keep searching and good luck!!! Just need that Javasaurus to complete series 2...
