BotBots blindpack codes

The new Transformers BotBots have made their first retail appearance (at Walmart in a "stocking stuffers" PDQ display), so it's time to start planning which ones you want.

There are two different codes on the back of the packaging: one serial number, which looks mechanical and precise, stamped along the right-hand edge; and a rougher, one- or two-digit number under the Hasbro logo in the corner, one that almost looks hand-written. You want the "carved" number:

01 - Stinkasaurus Rex*
02 - Sgt. Scrubadub*
03 - Nobeeoh*
04 - Cocoa Crazy*
05 - Sippy Slurps
06 - Remorsel*
07 - Skillz Punk
08 - Fomo*
09 - S.A. Cheez*
10 - S'up Dawg
11 - Twerple Burple*
12 - Spud Muffin
13 - Rootwing*
14 - Venus Frogtrap
15 - Fun Gus*
16 - Slobber Rock*
17 - Frostferatu*
18 - Dimlit
19 - Professor Wellread*
20 - Snippy Snappy*
21 - Totes Magotes*
22 - Cranks*
23 - Batsby
24 - Kidd Klobber

Figures with an asterisk are exclusive to the blind-packs (for now). There are apparently going to be 190 of these guys released by the end of 2019, so the single-carded ones may end up in later multipacks.

If that's not confusing enough for you, the bubbles that hide these are at least semi-translucent, meaning if you shine a bright enough light from one side, you might be able to make out the silhouette of whichever bot is inside.

Series 2 is out, and features green bubbles instead of red. And instead of the code numbers being scratched into the bottom of the card, they're printed near the top.

02 - Captain Swoon*
