White and Red go to Walgreens.
Technically it's representing the 250th anniversary of a country.
Yup. There's no technically about it, that's what it is. That's unfortunately shaded into by some absolutely atrocious garbage, but one is not the other and conflating the two sets the discussion back.
If this were a celebration of this administration it'd be a bribe, not an actual solicited product.
Honestly Hasbro getting into NFTs around the launch of Zord Ascension Project was more cringe, as that was more transparently jumping on an actual bandwagon that was known to be stupid. This is getting on a familiar, less-problematic if jingoistic longtime bandwagon that got hijacked to play the starring role in the trolley problem over the year plus that the production process took.
In any case, I'd like it if proceeds from these celebratory capsule/s partly went to a veterans charity or to something else that's currently being gutted, but I'm not holding my breath. Then again, I'm not thinking this is meant to line any admin pockets either.

I'd maybe get Star Eagle if they did a set representing different countries.
Beaver
Lion (gold)
Rooster
Dragon
Crow
Eagle (black)
Wolf
Phoenix
Eagle (white)

But I really don't need a random 'MURICA bot.

I'm happy to pass on it too, Murica or not.
But that red Twin Mill? Give me that right the hell now.

My new head canon is that Twin Mill is a pair of twins (see what I did there) who intentionally RirFib everyone by using one name between them. (The Autobots find it really annoying and mostly just call them Red and Blue).
-ZacWilliam, other option is it's one bot who can split into two Refelctor style, but I think I like the twin concept better.

They're Hack and Slash fans...
Autobot Battlechargers.
That's what the Jumpstarters are.
Everybody always forgets about ol' Twinspin and Toptwist.That's what the Jumpstarters are.
That's silly, who could ever forget good ol' Top Hat and Twist Tie?

I never forget Twin Spin

Along with Spoiler, Twin Spin was tasked with watching Guardian prisoners onboard a damaged Command Center after the fall of GoBotron. He went above and beyond in the jerk stakes by preventing Rest-Q from tending to the wounded and later threatening an injured Turbo. They were unaware that...

I got my original Twin Spin as a kid in the 3-pack with Stinger and Cy-Kill. He wound up being a stand-in for Coptur until my adult collecting years.I never forget Twin Spin

Normally, I'd be happy to support a Patriotic-themed Transformer on the 250th anniversary of the founding of the country. The fact that the anniversary happens to fall under THIS administration has made the concept far more problematic (for me, let alone anyone or anywhere else) than it really should have been.
THIS.
It’s a chintzy, tacky piece of plastic the cheapest Hasbro can sell, not even produced in the United States, made to try and grab a few sales from normies because of an anniversary with a nice number. It would have been made regardless of who is in office. Jeez.
