- Kikmee is a member of the Playroom Posse from BotBots.
Kikmee loves playing, which is a good trait for a soccer ball. While they do love playing games and sports, they really love to play tricks on other bots. They have become incredibly good as well, as this good-natured prankster is able to pull a prank and then tricks others to thinking they didn't do it. And surprisingly it works a lot!

- The first pack includes him, Bunches, Crib Watch, Quackles, and Lost Bot Grave Rave.

Notes
- Kikmee was originally intended to be released in Series 1 as the Jock-Squad-affiliated member of the Lost Bots, as indicated by promotional material for the series. Why Kikmee's release was changed is unknown. The end result is that their redeco, Sprinkleberry Duh'Ball, saw release before they did. Their bio in the Transformers BotBots Official Sticker Book still treats them as a Series 1 Lost Bot, while they are also treated as one in the Lost Bots! book as well.
- Their original static art, used for Series 1 promotional images, gave them a mischievous grin, instead of their not-so-innocent whistling face his Series 3 static art gives him.
- Kikmee is the "example" character used for the "2 MODES" demonstration illustration on the Playroom Posse's cardfront.
- Their name hearkens to the stereotypical "kick me" prank sign, fitting their trickster nature, while also combining it with the basic rules of soccer.
- Kikmee's power in the BotBots Official Sticker Book is listed the same as Abominable Soundman's. As this seems to fit Kikmee's personality better then Abominable Soundman, it's likely this is actually Kikmee's power.
- In the Transformers Stop Motion Netflix Anime episodes "Virtually Reality", "Haunting of Bot House", and "Anime Attack!", Kikmee appears as a prop in the Decepticon base.
- Kikmee appears as a prop on the exercise equipment rack at the Decepticon base in the Transformers Stop Motion Netflix Anime shorts Virtually Reality, Anime Attack!, and The Bot Dance Off.
- Like several characters in the Botbots cartoon, Kikmee's gender is different from the toy's original bio from Hasbro's website. In Kikmee's case, the original toy bio uses masculine pronouns, while the cartoon depicts the character as female.
