Metal Kart Bot

Heavy Iron was a legendary space criminal from the lost planet Machina, whose notoriety was so widespread throughout the galaxy that even Deus Machina himself preferred not to mess with him. Arriving on Earth, he attempted to conquer the planet using the Cosmo Crown stolen from the pirate Black Hook to transform it into a new Machina, but after being defeated by Blue Cop, he eventually joined Jun's crew.

He is calculating, cold, and calm in nature, preferring analysis to reckless action. He possesses near-invincible strength and unwavering resilience, believing himself to be the strongest Cardbot, and uses his power to achieve his goals without regard for their legality. He dislikes jokes and is obsessed with acquiring the Metal Bracelet, but his character is not without its nobility: he is able to recognize the strength of worthy opponents and protect his allies.

In vehicle mode, Heavy Iron is a massive bonneted tractor-trailer with a refrigerated trailer, reminiscent of American trucks from the 1970s and '80s. The transformation is unique: the cab becomes the head and torso, and the trailer separates into arms and legs, so it cannot transform without one of the parts. In robot form, it is a huge, multi-colored Cardbot (red, indigo, silver, and black) with a menacing black head and four red crests. It is taller than all the Cardbots in Season 1. Its armament includes "Iron Sword" sword-blades, built-in machine guns in the shoulders, and its main weapon, "Iron Armor," which is worn on the chest and allows it to fire a devastating "iron cannon" energy beam, capable of incapacitating several opponents with a single shot.

Buffalo Crash is a native of the lost planet Machina, a member of the space pirate Black Crew led by Black Hook. On Earth, he did the same as his brethren—hunting for Jun's Metal Bracelet—but his primary role within the crew is as a power fighter, striking fear into his enemies with his might. Personality-wise, he's the polar opposite of the cunning Buster Gallon: simple-minded, rude, and stubborn, acting head-on without strategy. However, beneath this harsh exterior lies an honest and noble heart: he always repays kindness and refuses to harm those who helped him. It was this trait that made him not just an enemy, but a formidable rival, who eventually joined Jun's crew after being sealed away.

In vehicle mode, Buffalo Crash transforms into a massive, bright pink monster truck, a color that makes him stand out even among other Cardbots. In robot form, he appears as a mighty warrior, inspired by European Vikings: a powerful build, chain-like details on his arms and belt, and battle axes he wields. His theme color is a hot pink with turquoise accents. His primary weapons are dual axes, which he uses for both slashing and throwing. A bison-head shield serves as chest armor, enabling him to unleash powerful moves: a beam attack from the shield's eyes called a "laser beam," and the devastating "Monster Flip"—a leap that lands with a crushing impact on the enemy.

Buster Gallon, a native of the lost planet Machine, is a talented inventor and strategist who originally belonged to the space pirate Black Crew under Black Hook. On Earth, he became the crew's chief technical officer, developing complex devices—from magnetic fields that paralyze Cardbots to miniature spy robots called "Mini-Gallons." He dreamed of gathering all the Cardbots and building a galactic empire, which led him to betray Black Hook. However, after being defeated by Buffalo Crash and joining June, he reconsidered and became a valuable ally.

Buster Gallon is a cunning, calculating, and slightly eccentric "mad scientist" who enjoys playing pranks on others with his prank-inventing inventions. He's cold and pragmatic in achieving his goals, yet loyal to those he considers friends. His ingenuity and intelligence often save the team, though his mischievous nature sometimes leaves everyone stumped.

In vehicle mode, Buster Gallon transforms into a powerful green bulldozer based on the real-life Caterpillar D6R. In robot form, he resembles a construction worker with a gas mask helmet and treads for rapid movement. His primary color is green with yellow and white accents. His primary weapon is a chest and shoulder harness that fires cannons and energy projectiles.

Black Hook is a fearsome space pirate from the lost planet Machina, captain of the Black Crew. In his homeland, he gained fame for defeating numerous Star Guardians, and his notoriety was comparable to that of Heavy Iron himself. Arriving on Earth in an escape pod, he brought with him a treasure—the Cosmo Crown—which was later stolen by Heavy Iron. Along with his crew, which includes inventor Buster Gallon and power fighter Buffalo Crash, he attempts to acquire Jun's Metal Bracelet. Despite his reputation as a ruthless pirate, he values ​​loyalty and honesty, respecting the word and honor of his subordinates. He is demanding, but not without a sense of honor—he is willing to retreat if the honor of a comrade demands it.

Black Hook is a massive, dark blue Cardbot with a pirate theme. His head is styled like a tricorn hat, with skulls etched into the sides, and his right eye is covered by a red scarred eye patch that can be folded back for aiming his cannon. His torso and forearms resemble an 18th-century naval officer's uniform, with gold and red accents, and his torso and arms are chipped, the marks of past battles. He is second in height only to Heavy Iron. In vehicle mode, Black Hook transforms into a flying pirate galleon—one of the few Cardbots capable of air travel even in high gravity. A grappling hook is attached to the ship's prow, and in flight, he uses his side cannons for bombardment. In robot form, his primary weapon is a massive cannon on his right shoulder that fires an energy core. For close combat, he uses an anchor that can withstand a blow from Heavy Iron's sword, and on his back are mounted double-barreled cannons for volley fire.

Wild Guardy is a fearless space knight from the lost planet Machina, who arrived on Earth in an escape pod after its destruction. He was first found and nursed back to health by Chris, a wealthy heir who became attached to the wounded robot, but Wild Guardy was then sealed by June and joined the team. He is Blue Cop's sworn rival, but their rivalry stems from more than hatred: Wild Guardy idolizes the Cosmo Guardians and dreams of becoming king of the Cardbots to prove his right to take his place alongside his idol.

His character embodies honor and dignity: he lives by a code, isn't afraid to lose, but doesn't tolerate injustice—if a comrade is offended, he flies into a cold rage. He's generally calm and reasonable, values ​​his own opinions highly, but recognizes the strength of worthy opponents and is ready to defend esteemed allies to the end. In terms of combat prowess, he's considered one of the strongest standard-sized Cardbots, on par with Blue Cop. He's capable of single-handedly defeating Mega Trucker, Phoenix Fire, and Dextor, and his blade can even pierce Heavy Iron's armor—despite years of training to reach this level after the destruction of his homeland.

In vehicle mode, Wild Guardy transforms into a fast, two-door sports car inspired by the Ford Mustang. In robot form, he resembles a knight in armor, his primary color a noble purple with silver trim, and the Cosmo Guard emblem prominently displayed on his head. His weapon is a gigantic purple shield, concealing a long sword forged in the Machine's magma over thousands of years. In combat, he uses a "wild punch" capable of rivaling that of Blue Cop himself.

Fleta Z is a legendary hunter from the planet Machine. He belongs to the metallic cardbot race and has long lived as a recluse, preferring freedom to any connections, leading many to believe his existence was merely a rumor. He is a natural strategist and perfectionist, meticulously analyzing his opponents, but his self-confidence and boasting of aerial superiority often border on arrogance. Beneath this facade, however, lies a gentleman: he is polite even to his enemies, courteous to women, and surprisingly sociable, though his gallantry is sometimes mistaken for frivolity. Despite his individualism, he is capable of recognizing the talent of others, and upon arriving on Earth, he became intrigued by the concepts of friendship and teamwork, which he had previously been skeptical of.

In transport mode, Flita Z transforms into a massive four-engine cargo plane, reminiscent of the An-124, capable of high-altitude flight and heavy haulage. Its robotic form is a heroic embodiment of a bird of prey. Its body is painted in black, red, and gold, with a bird symbol embossed on its chest. Its wide wings fold behind its back, lending a dynamic silhouette. Its primary weapon is a bow, transforming from its metal card, capable of firing homing "beak-arrows." The bow can also be combined with a sword to create an even more powerful weapon. In combat, it relies on maneuverability and precise ranged attacks, utilizing its signature "Vulture Wings" technique.

Dextor is a Cardbot native to the lost planet Machine, gifted with the unique ability to transform into a powerful wheeled excavator. Unlike many of his brethren, he didn't immediately find common ground with humans: Dextor is a fierce defender of nature and all living things, and his heart breaks at the sight of urbanization destroying forests. On Earth, he operated alone for a long time, mercilessly driving construction workers from construction sites until he met Jun and allowed himself to be sealed away, recognizing their strength. He is calm and taciturn by nature, often spending time in silence, playing with stray animals, which he feeds. However, his peaceful nature instantly gives way to aggressive rage when he encounters those who harm nature or his friends.

In vehicle mode, Dextor is a striking yellow and black wheeled excavator with a cabin resembling a single eye. His bucket can be used as a tail for attack or as a prop for stability. In robot form, he retains his recognizable yellow color scheme, wearing a helmet reminiscent of a construction worker's hard hat with built-in binoculars, and patterns resembling safety harness buckles are visible on the sides. His main weapon is a hand-held drill, capable of inflicting critical damage on even the strongest enemies. With it, he uses a powerful attack called "Dextor Blade"—a strike capable of knocking back even Blue Cop. Dextor is a master of underground combat, able to instantly burrow into the ground and attack from below, remaining virtually invulnerable.

Mega Ambler is a native of the planet Machina, where he served as a military doctor in the 13th Cosmo Guardians squad. After the destruction of his homeworld, he ended up on Earth, where he hid for a long time in the city of Mowtown, operating as the mysterious "Black Ambulance"—an unlicensed shadow doctor who secretly treated people for a huge fee. Due to his dirty corps and secretive nature, onlookers nicknamed him "Black Ambulance" until he was cleared and joined the team. He is Blue Cop's best friend and the squad's primary medic, using his skills to heal and repair allies.

He's cynical, quick-tempered, and blunt, especially with those who disobey, sometimes resorting to "secret doctor's tricks" to pacify them. However, behind this rudeness lies a kindhearted and talkative person with a strong sense of duty and the ability to offer complex personal advice. In combat, he coolly analyzes his opponent, looking for weaknesses, and if they don't exist, he creates them himself.

In vehicle mode, Mega Ambler transforms into a high-tech white ambulance with futuristic details. In robot form, he has a white color scheme with green and red accents, and a green cross is etched on both sides of his head. His right eye is equipped with a special device for diagnosing the target's condition. His weapon is the transformable "Mega Tongs," which he uses to deliver precise strikes, crush limbs, and paralyze enemies with a powerful electric shock. He can also bandage enemies with durable "Mega Bandages" and use the "Recycle Shot" to temporarily revive allies.

Mega Trucker is one of the Cardbots who arrived on Earth from the destroyed planet Machina. Unlike the cautious Blue Cop, he doesn't try to hide from people and acts on his own. His main passions are music and dancing, especially Latin American rhythms, to which he can break into a dance anywhere. Despite his strength and role as a combat heavy, Mega Trucker is good-natured, emotional, and not very bright. He genuinely finds Earth's children cute and loves to amuse them, although his clumsiness and spontaneity often get him into trouble. He and Blue Cop have a complicated relationship, full of rivalry and mutual recriminations.

In vehicle mode, Mega Trucker transforms into a powerful orange dump truck based on the real-life Isuzu Giga. His robotic appearance is inspired by an American football player: a massive body, broad shoulders, and a helmet adorned with fist-shaped emblems on the sides. His primary body colors are bright orange with yellow and gray accents, and his eyes glow blue. His main weapon is a translucent orange shield, which he wears on his left arm. With this shield, he uses his signature moves, such as the powerful "Mega Power Shield." He is one of the few people capable of deploying a gigantic energy shield to protect an entire city.

Blue Cop is a native of the planet Machina, where he was part of the elite Cosmo Guardians, who protected the Deus Machina mainframe. Before the destruction of his homeworld, he received a final order from his creator: use the Metal Bracelet artifact to find a friend. Arriving on Earth, Blue Cop studied the local customs and assumed the role of unspoken guardian, dreaming of a peaceful coexistence between humans and his fellow Cardbots. He is thoughtful and caring by nature, though he can appear cold on the outside. He meticulously follows the rules and sincerely tries to help people, but his clumsiness and ignorance of Earthly realities often lead to awkward incidents, such as trying to make coffee too strong or giving someone an overly intense massage.

In vehicle mode, Blue Cop is a stylish police car inspired by real-life supercars, with a classic blue and white paint scheme and a working siren. In robot form, he maintains the police aesthetic: his body is painted blue and white, and his head features a removable cap with the Cosmo Guardian insignia. His armament includes a transformable "Gauntlet of Justice" cannon and built-in blasters in his forearms, while his back features distinctive elements reminiscent of the wheel arches of his car form.

The Metal Bracelet is a legendary artifact from the lost planet Machina, created by its main computer shortly before the disaster. Designed as a device for absolute control over all Card Bots, it allowed the mechanical beings to be summoned from their sealed state, commanded, resealed, and even limited in power. However, simply wearing the bracelet was not enough—it obeyed only a chosen few, those whose hearts were pure and free from self-interest. In the hands of the unworthy, the bracelet became useless or even dangerous, ignoring commands and blocking access to its power. Upon reaching Earth, the Metal Bracelet found its owner in an ordinary schoolboy, June Grant: he possessed a rare ability to understand and empathize with the Card Bots, allowing him to activate the artifact. Thanks to the bracelet, June not only gained the ability to control powerful warriors but also became a link between humans and aliens, taking responsibility for the fate of both Earth and the surviving inhabitants of the planet Machina.

Planet Machina is the home of all Card Bots, a highly advanced mechanical civilization populated by intelligent machines. The supreme ruler and creator of all Card Bots was the supercomputer Deus Machina. The planet was home to an elite guard—the Cosmo Guardians—who maintained order and fought the wild Card Bots. All Card Bots are created from a unique purple metal called Machinasium. At the end of its life cycle, the planet's core became unstable, leading to a catastrophic explosion and the destruction of the entire world. Deus Machina foresaw this catastrophe and created the Metal Bracelet device to help the Card Bots survive. He tasked Blue Cop with finding his friend on Earth. After the explosion, the surviving Card Bots scattered across the galaxy in escape pods and eventually ended up on Earth.

The Card Bots are a race of intelligent mechanical beings from the planet Machine. Each one is a high-tech organism made of rare alloys, energy crystals, and complex microchips that replace organs. They possess full consciousness, emotions, and individual personalities—among them are wise strategists, hot-blooded brawlers, and noble knights.
Card Bots are born thanks to the main computer, which implants within each one a "Soul Core"—a unique code that determines their appearance, abilities, and purpose. Each knows their role from birth: warrior, scientist, builder, or courier. Their main feature is transformation: in battle, they take the form of robots, and when on the move, they transform into vehicles—planes, cars, ships, and other vehicles. They can also be sealed in special cards, where they remain in energetic stasis, maintaining consciousness.

Wild Card Bots were a unique and dangerous caste that emerged on the planet Machine before its demise. They were carriers of the Wild Beast Virus, an ancient pathogen embedded in their core programming. This virus acted as a deadly weapon: when activated, it hijacked the Card Bot's electronic brain, suppressing its mind and will, transforming the creature into a rabid beast driven solely by the instinct of destruction. The transformation process was accompanied by excruciating pain—the Card Bot's body began to glow from within, as if on fire, and its structure deformed, enhancing its physical strength but completely robbing it of its sanity. The virus was transmitted through direct contact or wounds, and even brief contact with an infected individual was considered fatal to any healthy Card Bot, as it was nearly impossible to cure. Many Wild Card Bots learned to control this virus and use it as a weapon against their enemies, deliberately infecting opponents or wreaking havoc. However, there were those who tried to suppress the beast within themselves, striving to preserve the remnants of their sanity and live in peace - but such cases were extremely rare, and most Wild Card Bots became outcasts, instilling terror even in their own kind.

Chris is a mysterious, turquoise-haired boy who arrived as a new student at Motown Elementary School. Although human, he is a friend of the Cardbot Wild Guard, whom he found when it arrived on Earth in a dire state. He searches for answers related to Jun and the artifacts, but after Wild Guard was sealed, Chris becomes a staunch ally of Jun and his team, assisting them in crisis resolution using his technical expertise.

His personality is the complete opposite of the impulsive Jun: serious, intelligent, thoughtful, and very private, not prone to chatter about important matters. At the same time, he's one of the "golden children"—his father is the president of an automobile corporation, and his mother is a doctor of robotics, giving Chris access to cutting-edge engineering labs and even his own limousine with a robot driver.

Chris is a 12-year-old boy, dressed in a suit, with turquoise hair, which makes him stand out among his peers. He has a phenomenal memory and demonstrates remarkable physical agility—for example, on his first day, he memorizes all the students' names and catches a ball without turning around. Despite his reticence and analytical mind, he eventually becomes close friends with Jun and his classmates, participating in all their adventures and providing the team with technical support.

Theo is June and Anna's twelve-year-old best friend, attending Motown High School. Unlike his impetuous classmates, Theo is a quiet and shy boy who wears glasses and lacks physical strength, being shorter and less athletic than his peers. However, his weakness is more than compensated for by his outstanding intellect: Theo is a genius in the exact sciences, particularly mechanics and engineering, and possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of a wide range of fields. He is an excellent electronics expert, capable of, for example, hacking the city's CCTV system. In crisis situations, his analytical mind is instrumental in helping the team, such as calculating the trajectory of a space capsule or analyzing the abilities of opponents. Along with June and Anna, Theo guards the secret of the Cardbots, using his talents to assist them and devise ways to keep their existence a secret from others. Outwardly, he is a modest boy with neat facial features, his main distinguishing feature is his glasses, which give him a serious and focused look.

Vera is Jun, Theo, and Anna's classmate at Motown Elementary School and the daughter of the local newspaper owner. Since first grade, she's demonstrated journalistic acumen: if she suspects something, she digs deep, and her courage is enviable. While Jun's team hides the Cardbots' secret, Vera becomes their biggest thorn in their side – a fashion blogger and streamer who hates it when robot videos get more views than her dance videos. She's nearly uncovered Jun's secret several times, but she's always one step short of obtaining the decisive evidence. However, Vera isn't driven by malice, but by pure journalistic curiosity and a desire to get an exclusive that will make her famous. While she remains an antagonist for the Cardbots, her reports sow panic among the townspeople, forcing Jun and Blue Cop to act even more cautiously. Vera is a striking girl with a striking appearance and a strong sense of style: she follows trends and always looks fashionable. Her distinguishing feature is her innate talent for being in the right place with a camera in hand, and her curiosity and stubbornness know no bounds.

An ordinary boy from Motown, emotional and curious, who loves BMX. He accidentally discovered the Metal Bracelet when his belongings fell off a bridge, and the device automatically attached itself to his wrist, making it impossible to remove. It turned out to be a treasure from the planet Machina, capable of sealing and summoning Card Bots, and the bracelet itself chose Jun as the "chosen" leader of all Card Bots. Blue Cop explained to him that from now on, Jun would help the Card Bots adapt to Earth and protect them from humans. Jun initially doubted he was ready for such responsibility, but he agreed, because he never considered the Card Bots subordinates, only friends.
