Meet Rumble Robots

Take a high-level collectible card strategy game…add three-dimensional, wireless remote controlled robots that are designed to do battle with one another…then take it one step further. Make it so the collector cards contain robust programming data that unleashes added power, ability and agility when kids swipe them through the exclusive scan port on their robot, and what do you have? Meet Rumble Robots. Rumble Robots feature a rich use of technology, packing state-of-the-art software into each Rumble Robot that reads the exclusive Rumble Cards when scanned into the bot, and produces the appropriate reaction, depending on the personality and battle-worthiness of the individual robot. The intricate game play appeals to kids on many levels, providing long-lived play patterns that challenge as well as entertain. Plus, Rumble Robots are ideal for one-on-one or small group play.

Rumble Robots feature six different battling robots with distinctive personalities who use their punch power, robo-lasers, shielding and speed to win battles.

Rumble Robots are more than just remote-controlled battling bots…with the exclusive Rumble Cards, kids build a strategy for their individual Rumble Robot and determine how best to apply the power ups and skills to overcome their opponents.

Rumble Robots operate via a wireless remote control…and each robot is sold with seven scannable Rumble Cards, swipeable collectible cards that help control the robot’s actions to help them win battles!

Each Rumble Robot has an individual, distinctive personality—so kids can really relate to their robot—and features special battling skills befitting his unique style. Boltman is outfitted with high-voltage lasers for maximum bolt power; LobJaw has special power claws and can overwhelm any opponent who gets too close; Bitor harnesses so much energy that he’s fast and unpredictable; Clamster, with his tough oyster-like shell is nearly impenetrable; Lugnut packs a punch and has the maneuverability to stay out of harms way; and Me-Fisto fights with the power and tenacity of a champion!

Each Rumble Card affects one of the Rumble Robot’s five battling traits: physical punch; laser attack; defense abilities or life points. Only three cards can be deployed at one time, so if winning is your goal, strategy is the name of the game! Additional Rumble Cards are sold separately and are designed to add to the strategy challenge.

Once trading cards are scanned, kids can go head-to-head with other Rumble Robots, ultimately trying to survive a complex strategy battle of 3-D sound and action reality!

Kids will be on the hunt for “fix it” cards, hard to find “trainer” cards and cards that unlock the secret combination to reveal added Rumble Robot powers, depending on the sequence in which the cards are scanned!

Kids can use Rumble Cards as a stand-alone collectible card strategy game for fun-on-the-run.
