Let's talk about cute robots
Bot Shots is an action-figure-based game that involves small super-deformed auto-transforming figures with combat rules similar to "Rock, Paper, Scissors." Players transform their Bot Shots figure into vehicle mode, send it into their opponent's figure, and hopefully the collision will trigger a transformation into robot mode.
A three-sided rotating symbol in their chest (either a fist, a blaster, or a sword) put into place before the game by the player, is judged against the opponent's pre-set symbol using the below hierarchy, determining the winner.
Fist beats sword
Sword beats blaster
Blaster beats fist
In the event of a draw, the figure's individual power ranking determines the winner. If a figure does not transform, its owner loses by default.
One bot in each wave is designated the Super Bot. This robot is cast in translucent plastic and has marginally higher power stats. His identity is blacked out on the back of the packaging of the other figures in the wave and has unique packaging deco calling out his "Super Bot" status.
there are 132 of these adorable little guys, counting different molds, Bot Shots included with launchers, different decos for the same character with different stats, and the Japanese releases.
Unlike their Bot Shots counterparts, BeCool toys aren't used to play a game, as TakaraTomy uses their quick and easy transformation as the main draw instead. For this reason, their chest stickers don't display stats but an image of their vehicle mode or something related to it.
