Mauler was one of fifty BattleBots competitors which were included in the MiniBots line of collectible toys.
Like all other MiniBots, Mauler was available in flow packs, blister packs and power packs. It came with a drawstring bag, a small square sticker of the real robot, as well as a checklist for collectors. These packs were sealed in such a way that their contents were a mystery, however, to preserve the rarity of special edition releases.

As it was not a Season 2.0 finalist, Mauler did not receive a special ChromeBot release, which were considerably rarer than the standard MiniBot toys. The Mauler MiniBot is notably inaccurate as it does not feature any of the iconic artwork which became synonymous with each iteration of the Tilford family's robot. This was also the case for several other MiniBots, with no given reason for the inaccuracy.
The Mauler Minibot Card
Bizarrely, the card which came with the toy featured the original Mauler from Season 1.0 instead of Mauler 51-50. The image featured of Mauler 2000 is also not an official photo, but rather an edited event report photo taken by Nightmare builder Jim Smentowski.
