Toys

BotBots

• BotBots packs (2020)
  • Series: 5

Introduced in the fifth Series of BotBots, the individual members of the Hibotchi Heats are spread out across a range of products too numerous to list here, so see individual entries if you really want the full rundown. Hibotchi Heats 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 bot
• 8-Packs with two characters from the pack's theme team, five figures from five other teams, and an additional blind-packed bot

There are four "Hibotchi Heats"-themed 8-packs in Series 5:

• Drama Sauce, Wasabi Breath, Brash Butterhead, Dr. Fraud, Reptilin' Sleepstylin', Outta Order, Tranquillabeast, Super Bubs (blind-packed)
• Lieutenant Lo Mein, Slurp-A-Derp, Flood Jug, Nomaste, Telly, Special Optics, Sweet Fang, Skippy Dippy Disc (blind-packed)
• Drama Sauce, Slurp-A-Derp, Camcon, Experi-Mental, Handy Dandy, Nomaste, Wah-Waaah the Clown, Pour Gold (blind-packed)
• Lieutenant Lo Mein, Wasabi Breath, Doctor Flicker, Glam Glare Fancy Flare, Razzle Tazzeled, Snuggle Puggle, Unreelz Dealz, Poo-Shoo (blind-packed)

The Hibotchi Heats were also listed as returning in the "cancelled" Series 6, appearing in single-bot packs, 5-packs, or 8-packs. Given it's unknown if they would again have dedicated 5 or 8 packs, but as they had dedicated packs in Series 5 it seems unlikely.

Notes

• The Winner's Circle Bot Goldim Sum seems quite likely to join the Hibotchi Heats.
