Toys and Figurines Amazon Australia Reveals New Transformers MixMasher Line

No, that's not a typo, and no, the Constructicon chemist is not getting his own toy line.

Remember Hero Mashers? The multi-property toy line from Hasbro which allowed you to mix and match parts from figures ranging from Spider-Man and Iron Man to Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker to non-transforming Transformers like Optimus Prime and Hot Rod Rodimus?

Well, they're back! In POG MixMasher form!

Listings went up across Amazon's Australian contingent this weekend, showing off four Transformers characters from the line: Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron, and Optimus Primal. Why settle for trukk or munky when you can have trukk and munky?

Even the strongest hero sometimes needs a helping hand... or a foot, a fist or accessories! The MixMashers Transformers collectible figures consist of parts and components that can be taken apart and put together to create unique, individual figures. Thanks to the 16 connection points, the 12 cm MixMashers Transformers robot action figures feature universal connectors that give the entire line compatibility and durability. Want even more combination power? If you collect the included accessories and power-up parts, you can create figures with maximum superpowers! There are other MixMashers children's toys to collect and give as a gift for birthdays and holidays! (Each sold separately. Subject to availability.) MIXMASHERS, TRANSFORMERS and HASBRO as well as all associated brands and logos are trademarks of Hasbro, Inc.

About this item​

• Create to disassemble: here the children determine what is happening – with Transformers toys that they can disassemble, combine and assemble in a fun, individual way
• MILLIONS OF COMBINATIONS: thanks to millions of creative ways to combine the interchangeable parts, these Transformers robot toys for kids encourage hours of imaginative play while creating unique figures
• With Starscream part: Transformers Starscream robot action figure comes with a red Starscream saw blade as a power boost, as well as with wing accessories
• Hey, the guy I know: The MixMashers Transformers figures present exclusively the most iconic heroes and villains, including Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Optimus Primal, Starscream and Megatron
• Multiple disassembly: the MixMashers toy figures developed for children have robust universal connectors - so they can be combined and disassembled again and again

Oh, and I guess Starscream is coming, too.

Here are some pics:

"Optimus Primal, Mashimize!" "Gee, fellas. When everyone was saying 'Bumblebee should be part of Beast Wars,' I don't think this is what they meant!​

And in case you were wondering, yeah, they're doing other IP in the mix, too. So now you can turn Optimus Primal into a real Spider-Monkey, if you want to.

So, how much will they be? Good question! The prices are presumably listed in Australian Dollarydoos, Bumblebee and Optimus Primal are (as of this writing) $31.98, while Optimus Prime and Megatron are $43.62. Add in Marvel and Star Wars characters with other distinct pricing to confuse the issue further. And on top of that, despite being the Australian Amazon site, it says these are sold by and shipped from Amazon Germany. So who knows how that affects things.

Thanks to TFormers and Seibertron for pointing the way!
