Who says that Transformers can only be made of plastic? ToyNews has revealed that Spanish company Famosa, who have worked with Hasbro to produce Furby plush toys, have secured a deal with the company to produce a line of plush toys based on its brand, and that includes our favourite transforming robots. The are supposed to see release this summer, probably to coincide with the fourth movie hitting cinemas in June. No images yet, but check out the news here, or read relevant snippets below!

Luis Benet, head of plush category, Famosa, said: "We are absolutely thrilled to continue to develop our collaboration with Hasbro which started in 2013 with the Furby plush line launch in the EMEA region, and which has just been extended for transforming some key brands in amazing plush collections including My Little Pony, Mr. Potato Head and Transformers.

"Hasbro has valued the quality of our products and the specialisation and professional skills of our team."

Yeah, I'm not too sure about these.

I mean, previous iterations have been interesting, such as the transforming OP and BB.
Not good, mind you, but interesting.

There weren't any in the Hasbro stall at Toy Fair, so my guess is no. The Famosa Furby toys are plush versions of the Hasbro one, though, so a similar variation could happen, I suppose.. :-?
