Traits[]
Appearance[]
Tobot R resembles a local fireman equipped with a fire axe, sledge hammer and water hoses to fight fire. He uses his hoses as sort of ropes to maneuver his way in guarded areas and uses them as lassoes to tangle up enemies and bring them down. His firetruck is a basic looking firetruck with a tokey slot located on the grill. He also has a cockpit for other pilots to ride inside of him.
Personality[]
R has 2 personalities, 1 in which he acts like a fireman protecting the city and 1 in where he acts as a news reporter reporting live.
Relationships[]
- Dr. Noh: R and Dr. Noh had a strong bond together.
- Neon: Neon acts like a coach to R. Telling him to stay strong while in battle and never leaving each other when times are hard.
Abilities[]
As a fire truck, R is equipped with standard firefighting gear, like a hammer and axe. A fire truck is no fire truck, however, without a trusty water hose - or, in R's case, his Water Cannon, used to douse fires and overpower enemies. He's also got some pretty long hoses; though they're usually attached to the Water Cannon for firefighting, they can also function as grappling hooks on their own.
R's moveset is as follows:
- Water Blast/워터 샷건 (lit "Water Shotgun") : Instead of a constant stream, R launches a concentrated blast of highly pressurized water at the opponent.
- Water Cannon Beam : The Water Cannon's stream is significantly bubblier. This move was unnamed in the dub and the command was just "Water Cannon".
Trivia[]
- R is one of few characters in the Tobot franchise who can break the fourth wall, as lampshaded by Officer Oh. This quirk is almost entirely removed in the English dub.
- He is the first Fire Truck tobot in the series, follow by Athlon Valkan and Tobot L.
