Thanks to the our very own 2005 Boards member Nevermore, we can finally share for you some Walmart listings for the mysterious “Botbots” line.
These new Amazon listings brings us an interesting confirmation. The previous and strange Amazon listings with Perplexingly Codenames: Toilet Troop, Techie Team, Greaser Gang, and Jock Squad are in fact the same “Botbots” line. The Walmart listings match the previous Amazon codenames as follows:
- Tra Botbots 5pk Toilet Troop
- Tra Botbots 5pk Techie Team
- Tra Botbots 8pk Greaser Gang
- Tra Botbots 8pk Jock Squad
We know that this new “Botbots” line will consist of “blindboxes” of 72 characters across four waves. So far, they seem not to be part of the War For Cybertron line.
We still have no images of any product yet (the attached image is unrelated, just for reference) but be sure to come back to our forums for more information when it’s available. You can now click on the bar to join to the discussion on the 2005 Boards!

The tope left second looks like some cool, futirsitc, sleek Shockwave, with a hand-held gun

Yeah, that's confusing. I thought the image was actually for the product, myself. TFW2005 should really change it to a "?".
Nevermore
The image is complely meaningless because it does not represent the actual product.

Two looks like Jetfire, One like Mixmaster with one shield on right arm one like Devcon, another one looks like Jolt and Concept art ScrapMetal
Fallout

What if the toilet troop is studio series Skids and Mudflap? That would be cool.

Cute.
What I mean is, the last time we had a wad of vague names like this, it was a bunch of placeholder names. Wake me up when we figure out WHAT they actually are. Since they're all toilet related, maybe it'll be the return of Titanium…

Breaking news;
Hasbro(the toy industry leader) has said "They will never stop making Transformers! Muwahahahaha!" this comes as a big stock to children and collectors alike… they have also said "There will never be real news again! Muwahahahaha!".
#FakeNews
(Ok back on topic…….)
Based on these names, I am really scared!
Paxtin
Oh yeah…I totally forgot these were a thing.
I thought these were wrote off as code names for something else, but I guess not…I really want to see these things now, if just for the names.

So can someone come get me when there's some news to go with the non-news? I mean literally ANYTHING at this point?
ReadyParzivalOne

Purple Heart
Count me in the group that wishes it’s more Micromasters, or something Generations related and not more of those ALT-Modes things.
TheSuperion
Yeah, seriously. I can't recognize a single one of them.
