Coming to us via Oeschle Peru website we can share for you our first official stock images of the new Hot Wheels Skate Transformers.
These are Transformers-themed finger skateboards which include a pair of finger sneakers. We have images of Hot Wheels Skate Megatron, Starscream and Soundwave. No Autobot versions yet. Each one is priced 29.99 Soles which is about $8.12. This is the second Hasbro and Mattel collaboration, following the previously revealed UNO Flip Transformers.
See the images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

Yeah im with tresob should of made them minicons Those would of definitely work

The core class figures wouldn't be able to have those shoes fit them. Think about it, the feet of various core class figures would not fit into where the fingers will go. It would be impossible to fit them onto the figures, themselves, and with how the shoes are shaped, that wouldn't work.

If it's close to a tech deck, then Core will work fine with the board. idk about shoes.
Mouthwash
Hmm… What size class, if any, does this scale with do you think? Gotta get that drip for my core OP.
Not prime
Any way I never saw Megaton scattering around Cybertron

The two biggest toy conglomerates in the world come together to make Transformers crossover products and this is what they come out swinging with

Nice find! There's also an HQ image of Megatron skate too. Optimus is sure the second Autobot, I wonder who the third one would be. Grimlock?

Found one of the Imperial Toys fingerboards on Ebay, and believe me, you're gonna flip, it's $1.99.
Honestly, the line wasn't getting attention, so the fingerboards Mattel's going to release are probably gonna tank about as fast as the Imperial Toys fingerboards did sixteen years ago.

I know Barbie well enough to know that Barbie is Optimus Prime and Ken is Bumblebee.
T-Hybrid
No, that's Ken. Barbie as Arcee.
Those look like Hasbro products, which means it's them trying to replicate the Tech Deck play pattern.
That's a *lot* harder than just letting Mattel take Transformers and put them on Teck Deck, Hot Wheels, etc. You're no longer trying to compete with Hot Wheels and Mattel has the ability to eat some of those costs as part of the wider budget for the brand.
It's the same reason partners are coming to HasTak for colllab Transformers. They like the idea of a "converting robot" with their brand, but it'd be WAY easier to license that out to Hasbro and let them use their resources than trying to stand up their own team to come up with a one-off.
Mega Prowl
That won't happen, but it would be hilarious to see.

I'm really just hoping none of the designers were looped in before the announcement last year and that it just took until SDCC 2024 before they had prototypes of INTERESTING crossovers ready.
At least give us a Barbie in Optimus Prime cosplay, cowards.
Mega Prowl
Yeah, Those may look good, but in the end, I don't think anyone bought those unless there were individuals who are suckers for that kind of thing with no shame in admitting it.
