Blokees has gotten the Transformers license to make small chibi style models of Transformers designs. Their previous efforts have all been G1 based, and you can see the products in the links below. The G1 products came in blind boxes and that's the only way their website sells them so places like Ali Express have sellers who sell them per individual character.

Their newer models are more expensive but come with bases, effects, and LEDs. They are based on the Rise of the Beasts film.

Images below followed by links to the previous series.

I've had Scourge and Primal for about a month and a half now. This was posted 2 weeks ago, but I got them from BBTS at the beginning of March.

They also have a wave 2 with Mirage and Arcee, and Mirage is sitting in my POL right now

Here are a few videos I did for the Wave 01 G1 kits, very odd choices for the assortments in my opinion. Will start working on Wave 02 soon.

YoloPark is trying to compete with them with their smaller kits. The results have been pretty disappointing with a number of QC issues like poor paint apps, bad ball joints, and molding misalignments.

I didn't know Yolopark was also making tiny kits like this, neat

Um, I thought the mini Yolo Park kits were announced first and were available in some markets before the Blokee kits were released.

I'd like to have all 6 of the Constructicons, but I hate blind packaging, and I don't see these being worth anywhere close to $20 each.

They're not. Unfortunately, the double-blind packaging drives the price up on the secondary market. You could buy a case and try to sell off the ones you don't want but then that adds to the problem.

Have they? All I know is the Yolopark figures have only been available here for around a month and just going up for pre-order in Japan this week while the Blokees are three waves in.

I thought they were. I know Yolopark was selling them on Amazon through their storefront and their website for a couple of months. The trick is Amazon NOW has stock that's shipped and sold by them, Prime shipping and all.

I was going off the reviews that are all since March since Amazon only occasionally gives first availability anymore. The oldest AliExpress reviews I can find go back to January so maybe they've in Asia since December, but that still puts the behind Blokees.
