First Look At Licensed Transformers: Rescue Bots Academy RC Optimus Prime And Bumblebee

under Rescue Bots

We may earn a commission from eBay Partner Network links on this post. Please read our advertising disclosure.

Thanks to an eBay listing, we now have our first look at licensed Transformers: Rescue Bot Academy remote-controlled Optimus Prime and Bumblebee by Jam’n Products.

The company is well known for manufacturing RC vehicles and even has a license agreement with General Motors for the Chevrolet Camaro.

Both toys can walk forward and backward as well as roller-skate forward and backward. Their torsos can spin and both of them come with lights and sounds.

2005 Boards Member sdtessmann also confirms that these toys are already hitting retail (Costco, CA – $29.99 each).

You can check out the eBay listings below and also check out the mirrored images with this news post.

If they did transform they would probably be something like this:

You can find these for like 5 dollars and they're freaking everywhere. I'm pretty sure they're the first result for transformers on Amazon.

Their native habitat appears to be mail kiosks in my experience.

They're remote-controlled… and don't transform? Oookay…..

Hasbro are licensing out the logo for a toyline that no longer exists…

They really need to get on to creating a new kiddie brand to label the old Rescue Bots toys, and the newer ones under a unified logo and concept… even if it doesn't have a cartoon or story.

Why does the toy line have to end because the cartoon’s finished?

Better value than most of the Cyberverse gimmick toylines.

I see nothing wrong with Rescue Bots or this particular OP toy's head sculpt. The aesthetic matches, unlike Earhtspark. It's still the ugliest OP head design in recent memory.

That's pretty cute. I suspect a primal figure will be coming soon.

People give Earthspark Optimus guff for how his head looks, but get a load of THAT Prime head, or this one:
