    It SAYS that, but I went through all the pictures. It doesn't show it anywhere. So either:

    A. The listings are wrong and some of the ones like that and other mentioned ones like the joystick have been moved to Series 7 or
    B. The Botbots in the pics are not comprehensive.

    I'd hedge my bets on A, since the number of Botbots shown in each pic matches the number that should be in each assortment, and there are some duplicate Botbots shown in the same picture, so they're not automatically "deleting those" from the pics. I mean, these same listings say "75 characters" when there's clearly not and that these would be all exclusive to Amazon.com, when again they're clearly not.

    Oooooh okay. Didn't catch that that was a bird cage. I put it down as "marker', which is what the original version of that mold was. That also explains the "ant farm" I missed. I'll change it.

    Hmmm... I was trying to figure out which one that was. I GUESS that's the closest one though man, that's a bit of a stretch. Honestly redecoing the lawn mower would've worked better.

    Is that trash alien a reference to the Atari ET games in a landfill? If so, I want it more.

    Anyone know what the repainted Pug is supposed to be? If its its part of the "shinny" Oil Slick team where it looks to be maybe is it supposed to be like a tire? The other one thats stumping me is the green Fun Gus repaint, is it broccoli or some type of radioactive mushroom beings its "glowing" with the transatlantic plastic?

    Yeah, from the show it's confirmed to be vomit, not trash.

    EDIT: So, the only one from the press release unaccounted for is "Space Ship", almost assuredly Space Case (assuming the "pizza" and "game controller" ones refer to the vehicles). Wonder why that one's not in?
