New Transformers Blind Box for Chinese Market Features Baby Versions of G1 and BW Characters

Motto: "'till All Are One"
Modian.com is carrying out a crowdfunding initiative for a series of Transformers themed blind boxes made by Beijing Model Hall and licensed by Hasbro. These are for the Chinse market and will be made available if the goal is met. As with many blind boxes, there are some chase figures, like that Beast Wars Megatron. The theme here is that these are baby versions of these iconic characters. They specifically call them "kindergarten style" though by western standards, these are closer to a Muppet babies version of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee who actually has a diaper. Even though these will be very limited in terms of the market, it is still fun to see the designs, so we wanted to share these images with you.

Cute, although I'm kinda like "but I've already GOT Titanium Soundwave, do I need MORE diapered Transformers?"

Long ago, in the letters page of the good ol' Marvel US book, a fan proposed the concept of "Transformer Babies", and whoever was answering at the time replied that it was so bold and fresh that it'd never see print.

3 decades later, it can be seen in plastic.

Dammit I'm going to end up buying every last one, and giving duplicates to kids of friends of relatives. Elita 1 holding a toy of Op's truck mode especially evokes Piggy's fixation on Kermie in Muppet Babies, which I will always hold up as the greatest Saturday morning cartoon of all time.

This is pretty cute, I hope these won't be too difficult to obtain. Might make for some fun "Before and After" pics with their larger toys, heh.

Guess I am in the minority... Nope.. Not interested at all.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

I'm not a big fan of the whole "let's do these characters again, but as babies" concept that I've seen done with superheroes, too. I don't see the appeal.
