## Premise

[edit]

## Characters

[edit]

### Main

[edit]

* Axel (voiced by Kieran Walton) - Andrew's nephew, who gains the ability to transform into an action figure after discovering the Power Bandz.
* Masko (voiced by Carlos Salazar)[3] – A luchador action figure whose arms, legs and head stretch and who wears various masks based on his emotions.
* Sarge Charge (voiced by Greg Chun)[3] – A tough, grizzled soldier action figure who is an expert in toy weapons.
* Bearbarian (voiced by Jamieson Price)[3] – A blue teddy bear who wields a sledgehammer nicknamed the “Worldbreaker".
* Bobbie Blobby (voiced by Reba Buhr)[3] – A small doll who pilots a purple mech suit that can fire clay.
* Galileo (voiced by Todd Haberkorn)[3] – A blue reptilian action figure who is able to turn invisible.
* Slobot (voiced by Landon McDonald)[3] – A robot action figure who moves slowly, but is a valuable asset of the team.
* Zoe (voiced by Carolina Ravassa) – Axel's friend, who is the only human who knows Axel's secret.

### Recurring
