This article is about a monster in Power Rangers RPM. |
Heat Bot is one of Venjix's Attack Bots. It has a fan and heater-themed appearance. It serves as the primary antagonist of the episode "Key to the Past".
History
After Tenaya 7 managed to sabotage General Shifter's Hyper Bot from becoming the next Venjix body, she took her Heat Bot to Corinth to attack the new Fuel Depot.
Heat Bot tried to heat the depot up, but the Rangers arrived to stop him. While Rangers Gold, Silver & Yellow fought the Grinders, the others battled Heat Bot. He was too much for the Ranger Operators to handle at first. Even once Rangers Gold and Silver joined in, the Heat Bot still managed to escape.
Later Heat Bot returned and tried to heat the depot up so that it would explode, but the Ranger Operators fired the RPM Enforcer on it. When that did not work, Rangers Gold and Silver used the Ice Mode of their Cloud Hatchets to freeze Heat Bot in ice.
Heat Bot remained frozen until Kilobyte arrived and released him. Heat Bot grew giant sized immediately after and the Rangers went to the SkyRev Megazord. When Heat Bot's heat was too much, Ranger Red called for the Paleozords. He used the Mammoth's ice breath to freeze Heat Bot, and then destroyed him with the PaleoMax Megazord.
Personality
Like most of the Attack Bots before, Heat Bot doesn't have much in a way of personality. He only speaks in beeps much like those of R2-D2 from the Star Wars franchise.
Powers and Abilities
Powers
- Heat Shield: Heat Bot can heat himself up to create a heat-like shield.
- Energy Deflection: The Heat Bot can also deflect energy attacks back at the enemy with its shield.
- Weapon Summoning: The Heat Bot can freely summon his clubs into his hands at will.
- Head Fire Beam: Heat Bot can fire a massive energy beam made of fire from his head. This was easily able to overwhelm the RPM Enforcer's finisher and take down all five of its Ranger Operators.
- Head Heat Wave: Heat Bot can also fire a heat wave from his head. This was his strongest attack as a single blast took down the SkyRev Megazord.
- Self Growth: Heat Bot made itself grow immediately after Kilobyte shot it free. It did not show the regular download sequence.

Arsenal
- Heat Clubs: Heat Bot can equip himself with two clubs for close melee combat.
- Heat Empowerment: Heat Bot can heat up his clubs (making them glow orange) for an increase in speed and power. This was its strongest move as two energized slashes from these took down any of the seven Ranger Operators at a time.
