- BotBots packs (2018)
- Series: 1, 2, 3
- Known designers: Kevin Raganit (concept artist), AJ Piejko-Brown (packaging), Ryan Glantz (instruction designer)
- Part of the first three Series of BotBots, the individual members of the Jock Squad are spread out across a range of products too numerous to list here, so see individual entries if you really want the full rundown. Jock Squad members can be found in:
- Single-bot Blind Bag Mystery Figures
- 5-Packs with two characters from the pack's theme team, two figures from two other teams, and an additional blind-packed rare "Lost Bot"
- 8-Packs with two characters from the pack's theme team, five figures from five other teams, and an additional blind-packed rare "Lost Bot"
- There are four specifically "Jock Squad" themed 8-packs in the first series:
- Arctic Guzzlerush, Pucksie, Angry Cheese, Grit Sandwood, King Toots, Lolly Licks, Screen Fiend, Stinkeye Stapleton (Lost Bot)
- Kidd Klobber, Laceface, Nail Byter, Poo Sham, Skillz Punk, Sticky McGee, Unilla Icequeencone, Burgertron (Lost Bot)

Notes
[edit]
- As revealed in the BotBots Official Sticker Book, the Lost Bot Love Struck was lost from the Jock Squad's store. Strike Four would fit too, but it seems more likely he was originally from the Playroom Posse.
- Two BotBots, a soccer ball and a baseball, appeared in promotional artwork for the first series, but were not in the actual toyline. An animated pitch later revealed that the baseball was indeed meant to be part of the Jock Squad, with the soccer ball meant as the Lost Bot that shared the team's theme in Series 1[1]. Both were eventually released in Series 3: the baseball did join the Jock Squad as Dinger, but the soccer ball ended up in the Playroom Posse as Kikmee.
