Official Sticker Collection

"The Magic Box Robot Wars Sticker Collection has over 240 stickers of all your favourite robots and is packed with tons of facts and technical info, we hope you enjoy it as much as the wars themselves."

— Introduction to the sticker album

The Robot Wars Official Sticker Collection was a series of stickers, along with a corresponding album, which was released to coincide with the initial UK broadcast of Robot Wars: The Fourth Wars. The stickers were published by Magic Box International and were sold in packs of six at 30p each.

A promotion by cereal company Kellogg's also saw sticker sets being included in boxes of their various cereal brands, such as Ricicles, Corn Pops and Honey Loops. These boxes also offered a special fluorescent sticker only found in this promotion. Unlike other free items that were packaged inside cereal boxes at the time, the packs of stickers were attached to the inside of the box rather than being at the bottom of the bag of cereal.

Overall, a total of 228 stickers were available to collect, though the introductory blurb for the album states a total of 'over 240'. The album itself was 44 pages in length, also containing several pieces of information on House Robots and The Fourth Wars, including side competition details along with a list of seeded robots.
