Walmart have updated their listing for the Bot Shots Protectobots Five Pack with images of the set. This set features five Bot Shots redecoed as the Protectobots – Hot Spot from Sentinel Prime, Blades from Combaticon Vortex, Streetwise from Prowl, First Aid from Ratchet and Groove from Decepticon Brawl. That’s right, Groove has been working out, he’s got buff and now he’s a tank. Check out the images of the set mirrored with this post.

That Blades looks a lot like Alpha Bravo. I almost want this.

That is evil…

At least nstanosheck was on topic. Your post has nothing to do with the Protectobot Bot Shots.

haha, protectobots as combaticon/stunticon repaints, an armored vehicle substitute for groove, and blades with missiles… only in bot shots!

Why can't those people just comment on the thread on the discussion at hand instead of just pointing and exclaiming "LOOK AT THE NECRO THREAD! LOOK AT THE NECRO THREAD!"
The Kup
And thus the above comment (nstanosheck's comment) brought in thousands of "You just revived a 2 year old thread just to say that?!?" kind of people.

I'd like to see another toy of Groove repainted from CW Brawl, just for the LOLs.

It is Rook-Groove!

I thought this line was dead? If not officially, there hasn't been any announcements of any additional figures plus the entire previous series never saw the light of day either online or brick and mortar.
These were good for my son when he first got into Transformers, then he got Metroplex for Christmas, now all he wants is MP Grimlock! LOL!

I wish the 5 packs were out in the UK they look like fun to me – I like that there's remoulds in the packs too (like the Helicopters).
I wonder if the dragon one could allow for a Terrorcon set sometime ? or if there's enough suitable moulds to make the technobots.. or even dinoteam/dinoforce.

Does anybot know what happened to this set? is it ever going to get released?
Thanks

Maybe it's a foam fire extinguisher on the tank, was wondering what the would do for a bike.
A fat bike would have turned out to look like a steamroller.
The hotspot looks good.

MEDICAL TANK!
That is kinda cool.

It wouldn't surprise me if these guys end up on the never-to-be-released section like RTS Rumble, Animated Voyager Thundercracker, etc. Which is a shame really. I'd buy a set if I can find them as an online exclusive or at the discount chains like TJ Maxx or Dollar General.

Yeah, a lot of retailers seem to have phased them out completely, and I haven't seen any preorders for the new stuff online. There might be another push come AOE, but I doubt it'll include all this unreleased stuff.
Online and they've been showing up at the discount stores like Marshalls and Ross.
Bot Shots didn't replace Robot Heroes, Rescue Bots did a year or so before Bot Shots even hit shelves, just like Hasbro moved their Super Hero Squad and Galactic Heroes brands to the Playskool aisle.
Same mold as Bot Shots Barricade/Prowl!
Feralstorm
Yes, if you have enough glue.

Do they combine
iacon45
Oh crap. I must have these to go with my other Protectobots. I thought Bot Shots were done though.
gabumon
I. Don't. Care. THEYRE Protectobots!!!!
MUST have!!!
Any info on release date!?
