Blue Whale News reported on December 26 (Reporter Li Zhuoling) that another peripheral product from Tesla was sold out.

At 10 AM on December 26, the Tesla Bot figurine was officially launched for sale, priced at 199 yuan. However, within less than 15 minutes, Blue Whale News found that this product sold out on its official app and third-party e-commerce platform flagship store, indicated by "out of stock" and "shelf off" status.

On a certain third-party e-commerce platform's Tesla official flagship store, the figurine showed over 100 sold. Their customer service staff stated that it had indeed been snapped up. When asked if it would be back in stock, they told Blue Whale News that they had not received any restock notice yet and suggested keeping an eye on it.

The Tesla Bot figurine is designed at a 1:10 scale of Tesla's second-generation humanoid robot, consisting of over 40 individual parts and featuring 20 joints. Both in appearance and action design, this figurine closely resembles Tesla's humanoid robot. However, this Tesla Bot figurine is merely a model product and does not have any electrical functions.

Regarding how many ornaments Tesla has listed this time, Tesla told Blue Whale News that it is unclear, but mentioned it was first sold in the North American market.

It is reported that by mid-November this year, the ornament went online in the North American market's online store. The selling price in Tesla's official store in the USA is $40 (approximately 291 Chinese Yuan), and in Canada it is CAD 55 (approximately 279 Chinese Yuan), but it sold out in less than 24 hours and even crashed the website at one point. On second-hand trading platforms like eBay, the price for the Optimus Robot ornament has been driven up to as high as $1300 (approximately 9488 Chinese Yuan).

On a certain second-hand trading platform in China, Blue Whale News found that the ornament was even being sold for 9,000 Yuan, though more listings were marked at second-hand prices of 588 Yuan, 499 Yuan, and so on.

It is noteworthy that other peripheral products launched by Tesla have also been in high demand. Public information shows that Tesla's 2020 tequila product, Teslaquila, priced at $250, was quickly sold out after being listed; while empty bottles appearing on the second-hand market have even been priced at between $500 and $800. That same year, Tesla also launched a limited edition "Short Shorts," each priced at $69.420, which also sold out immediately. In addition, products like the Cyberwhistle whistle and Cyberquad ATV children's off-road vehicle have also received attention and sparked purchases.
