Arcade Renegades

The Arcade Renegades is a subgroup from BotBots.

And I say hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Livin' like we're renegades!

The Arcade Renegades are... wait, what?...

Okay, so an "arcade" was a place where people would gather to play video games...No, not a phone. Right, like the part of a Chuck E. Cheese where you don't eat the pizza. Only these used to be their own separate thing, they had video games, and most every mall had one. And most convenience stores, a lot of department stores... I know, right?

Any rate, the Arcade Renegades are all about the good times. Bad food, loud noises, and cheap prizes, that's a party!

BotBots

• Arcade Renegades Surprise (16-packs, 2019)
  • Series: 3

Part of the third series of BotBots, the members of the Arcade Renegades are found only in the special "Arcade Renegade" themed 16-packs. Every pack shows the eight new-mold Renegades in the "game screen" part of the packaging, in the same position:

• Bank Shot, Clawsome, Cackle Corn, Driver Ted, Greed Feed, Knotzel, Old Cool, Tutu Puffz

In most of the packs, the eight blindpacked "controller buttons" at the bottom half have four of the redeco Arcade Renegades, with the other bubbles filled by Series 1 repacks (whose alt-modes at least fit in with the general theme of the set, being bad food and potential prizes). The ID code for each arrangement is printed on the back, just to the right of the team art next to Sweet Cheat (appropriate!).

The six known blindpacked arrangements include:

1: 24K-Bit, Laceface, S'up Dawg, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Skillz Punk, Spud Muffin, Sweet Cheat, Tangry Tart

2: Chilla Gorilla, Duderoni, The Fizz, Hawt Diggity, Papa Click, Pixelfin, Shredder Jack, Wrist Banned

3: 24K-Bit, Chilla Gorilla, Duderoni, Papa Click, Skillz Punk, Spud Muffin, Sweet Cheat, Wrist Banned

4: The Fizz, Hawt Diggity, Laceface, Pixelfin, S'up Dawg, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Shredder Jack, Tangry Tart

5: Chilla Gorilla, Duderoni, Laceface, Papa Click, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Skillz Punk, Sweet Cheat, Tangry Tart

6: 24K-Bit, The Fizz, Papa Click, Pixelfin, Sheriff Sugarfeet, Sweet Cheat, Tangry Tart, Wrist Banned

Assortment #6 is a "recommended minimum buy" for a complete set of Series 3 BotBots.

Notes

• The instruction sheets erroneously label some of the redeco Renegades with the wrong team symbols, presumably mixups left over from the Series 1 repacks in some of the pack variants.
• While the Arcade Renegades aren't mentioned in the show, it was clarified that the squad was intended to exist in the show as a squad.
