The Sellbot VP is one of the hardest battles you will ever do. First, you must beat the Sellbot Factory 10 times to acquire all the pieces of your cog disguise. Then, join together with 7 other POWERFUL toons to beat the Sellbot Senior VP.

This is a very hard and long battle so don't try this if you don't have much time. Also, you should also have at least 55 laff. When you are ready, try to have your toon group as close as you can to this.

Toon 1 80 laff
Toon 2 you (at least 55 laff)
Toon 3 100 laff
Toon 4 80 laff
Toon 5 90 laff
Toon 6 100 laff
Toon 7 65-75 laff, lots of toon-ups
Toon 8 WILD CARD

4 Toons should have all gags except lure or sound, and 4 should have all except trap.

With a little luck, you should be paired up with only one of toon 7 or 8.

The Vp is tough! The first battle (Cogs) is the easiest. Some cogs will be up to level 12, and some will be level - 1? Don't worry about these guys.

Use lots of toon-ups and use lure whenever you can. If you have a toon SOS card from a previous VP battle, now may be a good time to use it as you will get another if you win. After all the cogs are defeated, then the second round begins.

Chase the VP down. There is not much you can do here, because the VP throws 3 damage gears at you and if you run into him then you lose 1 laff.

Round 2 are Skelecog battles, WAY harder than the cogs. By now you should have about half of your gags used up, so you should have saved up your powerful gags. There will not be any really low level skelecogs here, so hopefully you will be lucky and be paired up with a 100 laff toon.

Finally, the last battle is against the Sellbot Senior VP. This is an extremely hard battle, because I think that the Toontown programmers changed the VP battle so that the VP starts at the door rather than the bottom of the ramp up to the door. First, jump up to touch the bottom of the cage holding the captured shopkeeper to receive a supply of cream pies. Hold Delete to fire a pie.

There are 3* attacks that the VP will use to attack you.

- Gear throwing attack that usually fires at one or two specific toons. Does 5 damage and is easily avoidable.

- Spinning attack that sends screws shooting in all directions in close range to the VP. You shouldn't really have to worry about this 3-damage attack unless you all close-range attacking him.

- Gravitational pulse jump attack. There actually isn't a pulse, but you have to jump when he lands otherwise you will fall and lose 10 laff points. This is probably the most dangerous attack in the battle; it is quite hard to avoid.

When the VP is attacking you, note that for a brief period of time his undercarriage will open up. Throw a pie in there and the VP will be stunned. Then hit him with pies in his face and chest and he will roll backwards. The idea is to get him to roll off the sellbot launch platform (pretty far away, which is why I said not to try this if you don't have much time).

Just a few strategy tips for you advanced gamers:

- Getting hit with a pie replenishes 1 laff.

- This is a diagram of what a good toon group will have-

The two toons that are in the bottom-right corner? I am assuming that one toon has low laff. That toon, along with another, should go in the bottom right corner where it is safe and the high laff toon should keep hitting the low laff toon with pies! This works, but just be sure to jump when the VP does.

* There are actually only 3 attacks, but 5 ways to get damage. When the VP's undercarriage opens, gears fly out and take away 3 laff if you get hit. Lastly, the fifth way to get damage is running into the VP. This takes away 1 laff.

And that's pretty much it. Good luck!

Happy cheating,
