You probably see these at Walmart and Target. They are Mini Brands, so smaller versions of products from popular brands. The latest set of bling "balls" is about toys and has many Hasbro properties like My Little Pony, Play D'oh and Transformers. The specific Transformers Mini Brand toy is a miniaturised Cyberverse ultra class Bumblebee in package. These are great for doll houses and the scenes using action figures. Like a shot of Bumblebee purchasing himself at the store. The display you see below was at a Canadian Walmart.

Where to Buy Officially Licensed Lego Technic Style Xiaomi Transformers Sets

This is not technically a breaking news style article, but more to inform fans who have been asking where to get these officially licensed building block sets of Transformers Cyberverse characters. The questions came about when we revealed the Grimlock building set the other day since it looked cool and completionists wanted to add these official sets to their collection. It turns out that Grimlock is just the latest in a series of officially licensed sets within the Chinese exclusive Transformers Nehza subline. We had a Cyberverse Optimus Prime, Megatron, Bumblebee and Starscream sets before that. While the sets are officially licensed, they are not of actual Lego bricks but by Xiaomi which imitate the Lego Technic bricks (similar to how Kreo-O imitated the standard Lego building system).

They can be purchased on Ali Express. Fans were saying that this would effect a partnership with actual Lego, but as we now know, this is not the case, since after Kre-O and while these technic style sets are being released, Lego still partnered with Hasbro to make a Lego Optimus Prime. All these sets can be disassembled and rebuilt into the alt modes.

The Technic style sets range between $60-$100 USD, here are the purchase links:

Remember the Transforners Nezha line? It was a China exclusive line with retools and new molds in Cyberverse style packaging. We haven't heard of this line for a while but ut seems to still be around. We have an image from Shebtutoybox of another entry in this line consisting of a Cyberverse Grimlock building set made up of Lego Technic style pieces. It has different face options and can be disassembled and rebuilt into his Dinosaur mold.

This product will most probably not be released outside of China.

McDonalds was the first ever fast food chain to have a Transformers promotion, way back in the G1 era. Burger King took on a massive promotion for the live action movie era and lately we even had Transformers promotions at Wendy's. But what about Carl's Jr.? When are they getting their turn at TF goodness. Well, now is their time... in Mexico. That's right, Carl's Jr. locations in Mexico now have Transformers toys given in their kids meals as part of their current Hasbro promotion which is made up of Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and two characters from My Little Pony. The Transformers are using their evergreen designs. Prime has an action feature with his axe and Bumblebee is a non transforming robot that can be hidden inside his car mode. Both come with stickers for some much needed detail. The images below come from TF fan tankor92. If ever these come to the US, let us know.

Windblade was announced some time ago but has gone under several redesigns since the initial concepts. The character was created through the first fan poll that Hasbro ran, having fans choose different aspects of the design. She also recieved several IDW miniseries in the old run, and featured in several cartoon series since then such as RiD2015 and Cyberverse.

What do you think of this model? Will you be adding her to your collections?

Do you live near an Ollie's? Well you need to get out to your local store as soon as possible because according to various Seibertronian sources we have word that some hard to find items have randomly popped up.

First in thanks to Seibertronian xRotorstormx we have news that an Ollie's in Lansing, MI has as of this writing Allspark Tech Starter Packs including Optimus Prime, Shadow Spark Optimus Prime, and Sqweeks! Just when you thought you'd seen the adorable little buddy with a killer right hook in every permutation possible this particular Sqweeks is seeing one of his rare appearances on US shores, at least the first we know of at an Ollie's. Sources say he has been spotted at other discount centers such as Ross but some find Ollie's a tad easier to navigate. You movie-verse completists out there will want to keep your optics peeled for this cool little item.



Also rolling in like a thunder cloud from this same Ollie's we have a sighting of Transformers Cyberverse Thundercracker! Awful hard to deny how sleek the blue color scheme looks on this new Seeker mold.



Thundercracker was $4.99 and the starter packs were $9.99

Then in a rather random sighting our own Podimus Prime ScottyP spotted Transformers Mighty Mugs which were previously only available online for only $3.99 each at a Raleigh, NC Ollie's.

Note in the picture below they only have series 1 with the four characters.



Most Ollie's typically receive the same or similar merchandise around the same time, so these sightings although far apart do indicate there's an interesting flow of Transformers merchandise hitting the brick and mortars.

What have you found? Be sure to let us know in the forum and stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news!

First Look at Upcoming Bumblebee, Soundwave and Arcee Figures from Mondo in Figure King Magazine

If any of you are into high end collectible licensed Transformers figures, well we have some news for you. While with the advent of brand unification, the Figure King magazine isn't as revealing as it used to be, it did give us some surprises this time. Mondo is a toy company that makes licensed collectible figures. In Figure King 259, courtesy of Loopaza, we can see an early version of their upcoming Soundwave figure along with their plans for a Bumblebee and an Arcee figure, which is a departure from her more typical feminine look. You'll let us know what you think about those.

The issue also has nice images of MP 48 Lio Convoy, upcoming Siege figures like Rumble and Ratbat, a gray scale image of Piranacon, many cyberverse figures already being found at retail in many parts of the world and the super 7 figures which show you what is going on inside Megaron and Optimus. There are also Japan exclusive Keshi blind bag figures that seem like a rebirth of the G1 decoy figures.

Enjoy!

This just in from fellow Seibertronian Survivefan23 we've learned that Burger King has a new King Jr. meal promotion with Transformers Cyberverse toys! Now these are simplified versions of current Spark Armor editions of Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Starscream and Megatron, but anyone who ever received a Transformers toy in a kids meal knows that unique fun and appeal of promotions like this one. The promotion is currently saddled up (it's like they write themselves) with a My Little Pony promotion featuring characters such as Pinkie Pie and Rainbow Dash.

Enjoy the promotional image below and share your thoughts with the Seibertron crew in the forums. As always stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news!

Well it's a regular Cyberverse news-spolsion in the Seibertron news room! We've got sightings of the regular assortment from one of our own members, then a sighting of the Tiny Turbos Series 1 up in Canada, before we get to a quick peek of the Tiny Turbos Series 2.

First off from our own Seibertronian ScottyP comes sightings of some of the new Cyberverse Basic Assortment at a Target in North Carolina. Scotty learned that basics are $14.99, and Elite are $24.99. The case breakdown for Basics looks to be 2x Starscream, 2x Sky Byte, 1x Prowl and 1x Jetfire. Elite seems to be 2x Optimus, 1x Bee, and 1x Megatron. (Also spotted at the same Target was the new Siege Micromaster 10 pack so make sure and check your local stores they're definitely making their way across the nation)






Then thanks to a member named terrific over at TFW2005 we've learned the new Tiny Turbo Changers Series 1 has hit the shelves of at least one WalMart in Ottawa, Canada. They've also learned a way to decode which character is in which blind bag! The code starts with a letter of the alphabet and it’s this letter that tells you who is inside. terrific has also provided us the full list of codes.

Tiny Turbo Changers Series 5 Identification Codes list:
A – Bumblebee
B – Optimus Prime
C – Grimlock
D – Autobot Hot Rod
E – Jetfire
F – Autobot Drift
G – Blackarachnia
H – Decepticon Shockwave
I – Soundwave
J – Megatron
K – Starscream
L – Prowl


Then lastly thanks to a listing at Amazon Mexico we have an image of the lineup for Series 2 of the Tiny Turbo Changers. In it we see Starscream, Megatron, Drift, Prowl, Grimlock, Jetfire Hot Rod, Shockwave, Black Arachnia, Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Soundwave.
