Notes
- 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.
