Why should you care about Hot Wheels? Well how about Hot Wheels that transform into robots? How about Hot Wheels that transform into robots and were designed by PLEX?

Robo Wheels were an interesting idea, but it failed to catch on with either the car collectors or the robot collectors.

There's not a lot of info out there about Mattel's short lived Robo Wheels line. The toy line hit the shelves during the 2002-2003 season, but they seemed to go as soon as they came. Most Robo Wheels ended up on the pegs at clearance prices at discount stores like KB toys.
