Blasters
Blasters are the MBC's starting weapon. They don't run out of bullets but they're usually ineffective against giant or fast aliens. They also have homing beacons (tracking device) in case they're missing or taken by the enemy. Blasters can change into any of five different weapons:

Start from clockwise: Vacuvator, Sonar blaster, Double X and Alien Flasher

1.) Vacuvator / Vacu Vader
Vacuvators are used to trap aliens and they're also the last weapon that MBC will release. It includes the canister at the top which contains clear liquid (See Vacuvator Containment Jar). In the episodes "Comic Book Heroes " and "Clean Sweep", Vacuvators can also be used to pick up heavy objects.

2.) Sonar Blaster
Sonar blasters are used to shoot two or more alien enemies by emitting loud sounds. It can also become a freeze blaster, which can freeze the enemy.

3.) Double X
It's also known as X-Blaster, X-Buster, Triple-X or just Laser Blaster. It is also a weapon that uses against bigger or tough aliens. It's heavier than Sonar Blaster and it's target range is one enemy only. It includes telescopic sight and flashlight.

4.) Alien Flasher
It's also called Laser Blaster. Alien Flasher is the most powerful MBC weapon. However, it is also the heaviest weapon and requires two hands to hold it.

5.) Electrobubble

Emergency Blasters
Emergency Blasters are first featured in the episode "The Famous Four (part 1 and 2)" and only used in case of emergency. They are just like blasters but only small. They also have their special suitcase for storing. According to Mr. Smith, Emergency Blasters have their own "time-release function" to change into regular blasters.
