TOMY Unleashes Dōteki: A New Line of Battle Toys Where Kids Drive the Action

TOMY has announced Dōteki, a new brand of action-packed battle toys that transform players into the center of the competition. Available online and at specialty retailers worldwide Aug. 4, Dōteki invites kids to control the action through handheld battle controllers, strategy, and speed, all anchored in a tactile, high-energy arena environment.

“We set out to create an innovative new brand where kids aren’t just watching the action — they are the action,” says Julie Gwaltney, VP of Toys, TOMY International. “Dōteki brings together competitive play, the thrill of customization, and the sensory satisfaction of movement-based battles in a way that reinvents the battle category. It’s designed to engage today’s kids in a whole new way, and we’re proud to lead the charge.”

Built for players ages 8 and up, Dōteki pits characters from four elemental factions through fast-paced matches: Arctos (ice), Heatoru (fire), Organika (earth), and Spiritek (tech). Each battle is powered by an ion ball that ricochets through the custom-built arenas, with players aiming, blocking, and reacting in real time to protect their target. When a player’s health key ejects, they’re out. The last player standing wins.

The first wave of Dōteki products includes:

All sets are cross-compatible, offering infinite ways to combine and expand gameplay. Each box includes QR codes linking to how-to-play videos, encouraging both casual and competitive play.

With collectible characters, exclusive trading cards, and modular components, Dōteki offers a modern take on the battle toy category, designed to captivate both solo players and head-to-head challengers.
