Wondering what the deal is with the upcoming Transformers Bot Shots? What size are they? What are the symbols on their chest? Well some answers have surfaced thanks to TimetoPlayMag.com. Bot Shots will feature an advanced Rock/Paper/Scissors style game. By rotating the chest symbol, you can choose Blaster, Fist or Sword, and then slam 2 or more Bot Shots in a head on collision to discover the winner. Transformers Bot Shots will feature Bots and Cons from Generation 1 through the new Movie. Check out the video below for a product demonstration.

Another aspect of the Transformers Bot Shots line may have an online interactive feature. Could this be the website? No official word yet on this site, but we will keep you posted!

OK, so they're battle beasts. I'm in love.

Now make a Pirate Lion!

They are cooler than I first expected. I was thinking along the lines of a preschooler age toy, but these guys actually look pretty neat. The possible website pictures a Prime that might even be a nemesis! I'm sold.

I look forward to the day when a voyager class Transformers can self transform on it's own then yell "Autobots, transform and roll out !!"

Bumblebee: NO, I'm the face of this franchise! *punch*

Wait...did the guy say fist beats sword? I thought it would be the other way around.

Hasbro logic: fist beats sword beats blaster beats fist and so on.

More realistic logic: blaster beats sword beats fist beats blaster and so on.

Of course the circle starts again after fist but that's a little interesting the way Hasbro set the game rules.

Wow, lamer than expected. But they better make Twin Twist and Topspin (but now that I think of it- 25 years ago they could make figures that jumped on their feet, and nowadays they can't... devolution)

[Mykltron]

Yeah, fist beats sword. Right. That's a pretty crappy sword.

Cool idea though, I can see those would be fun.

Regardless of age, I think there's a limited amount of fun to be had with these things. Me? I had mine clicking on the play icon.

*Rushes to a time machine and then a store*

I'd like this Prime, this Bumblebee, this Megatron and this Starscream please?

For kids, this is pretty dang awesome. For me. Still pretty awesome, though I likely wouldn't play the game. Which would make me have to justify the purchases some other way.
