    Oh, he's like my most-wanted Series 6 redeco that I hope carries over somehow to further series.

    Well, except for the Smiley Face one, I really like that one too...

    There were SOO many dudes from series 6 that I wanted. I'm seriously hoping that if that wave was canceled that the dudes show up a bit later on.

    Is stock of the Series 5 blindbags that were showing up at Dollar Trees dwindling for anyone else? There are three near me; I got five or six of the exclusive ones on my first time checking a Dollar Tree, but it's just been one straggler (I already own) or nothing ever since.

    Why would Series 6 be cancelled? People said the same about Series 4 because there was such a long gap between 3 and 4 (or was it 4 and 5)...
    The problem is, Hasbro does previews for almost every toyline, but completely ignores both Botbots and Cyberverse. They just throw them out whenever they feel like it. COVID probably upset production, and we all know shipping is an all time low state right now. Give it time. The new cartoon does not even have a trailer... it's all a long way away.

    BotBots are not coming to my country anymore due to low interest :( 

    Even though I like them, they make a fun impulsive buying and taking photo outside :(

    I just assumed that S6 was pulled and replaced with the new stuff that’s coming out to tie-in with the cartoon.

    I mean, you could be right and S6 might be just around the corner. But I wouldn’t bet my house on it, that’s for sure.

    There’s never been a year long gap between wave releases. I’d bet the next series that comes out will look different from the series 6 checklist we saw.

    And this "Moku Setsu" policy Hasbro has toward the brand is no way to keep it alive and help it grow.

    You know what? I'm surprised that Hasbro hasn't made a special set of scented botbots yet. Given how many of them are based on food items. (Please keep the rotten food ones out of it.)
