Should BotBots count as Transformers action figures?

[Tha_Phantom]

Since the fandom has decided things like Happy Meal toys and Decoys don't count I think BotBots shouldn't either.

These are false comparisons IMO. Bot Bots are not promotional items made by an external party, they are Hasbro products with their own toyline and they can transform, unlike decoys.

I think so. They just seem like smaller one-step changers to me. Similar to Botshots too.

Answer: yes

They aren’t based on any previous characters or franchises, so they count.

I think so. They are being heavily promoted, they have clear robot and alt modes, they are officially licensed Transformers products, they are being sold in stores.

I shudder to think what the KO market is gonna do with these guys though...
