Licensed Transformers Koosh Balls Line Revealed

Posted on January 17, 2023 at 8:19 am by Silver Optimus under Transformers Cyberverse

Back in 2020, Hasbro outsourced the engineering and development of its Koosh brand to Playmonster.

Today we received news that the Transformers brand is inducted into the Koosh Balls under their Cameos line.

For the moment, we have Evergreen Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, but it is likely that we will see more in the future.

Buyers can play with Koosh Balls like Yo-Yos or use them for decorating their Christmas tree or use them as a wrecking-ball accessory for ROTF Devastator.
