For the small robots which accompany BattleBots competitors during fights, see Minibots.

MiniBots were small rubber toys produced by Interactive Toy Concepts Ltd. made to resemble BattleBots competitors. They measured about an inch in length. All 50 MiniBots were based off the respective robots' Season 2.0 incarnations.

MiniBots came in packs of two, three or five, known as a "Flow Pack", "Blister Pack" or "Power Pack" respectively. Each robot came with a checklist to help with collecting, a small 1" x 1" square sticker with a picture matching one of the figures in the pack. Each toy within a pack was individually packaged, with the robot itself sealed in a clear plastic pouch. Multipacks also came with a drawstring bag to store MiniBot toys.

The Season 2.0 finalists from each weight class also had silver versions released called ChromeBots, which were significantly rarer than the standard MiniBots. Eight in total were produced, and have been scarcely seen since their initial release.

Eight of the 50 were also Limited Edition gold versions with hologram symbols that granted the owner a trip for two to the next BattleBots tournament and advertised as featuring 1 in 500,000 packs. A collector's series was also available that featured home versions of the tournament itself.
