xeon says:

You dont have to wait for a good group go in with ok people the vp is down and weak and in between battles you get gag barrels


Doctor tubby picklescreech says:

If you want to survive, leave the sound on because when the vp jumps, you can hear it.


Good ol' Pancake Doggenflipper (Pancake) says:

Oh, yeah, he was MAD all right. Maybe even FURIOUS. I heard him when he was falling off the cliff, "NOOO!!!! I HATE BEING DEFEATED BY LOW LAFFERS!!! THEY ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! I ALSO DONT LIKE BEING DEFEATED BY MY ARCHNEMISIS!!" (Cuz the VP is my worst enimy, as I said in other comments). I am so happy that Im (And other Toons) are driving him nuts. :D


Popcorn says:

Well, if your toon is a small toon and she/he isnt tall enough to hit the part where he opens, you can go further back and you can get it right into him.


ToonCouncil says:

Great tip, popcorn!


Kitt E. Kat says:

After you get a full team, you go into the elevator. The Vp and captured toon talk a little, and the battle starts. Normally the cogs range from 1 to 12 but because f the doodles they go up to level 5.After the first round, you get to restock on gags and laff with barrels.Then you start the Skelecog round. They also go up to level 5. After the skelecogs, you fight the VP himself. There should be four on each side, back side stunning, and front side attacking. Once you knock the Vp off the platform you win! You can now cal the rescued toon to help you in battle!


Newboyz says:

I took taken part in storm selbot and made it through. Any toon who stepps through might want to have a full laff meter, lots of gags, and 8 friends on the trip. Toons of the world UNITE!!!!!


awesome says:

my tip is have as many gags as you can please post


royal blue cat/aka royal says:

i did it ten times just today!!!!!!!!!!! im the stun master when it comes to the vp


Doggy Man says:

heres a tip: if he jumps quickly jump up in the air! if you don't know how this is how: press control at the bottom left corner of your key board!


ToonCouncil says:

That's an important one, Doggy Man!


Wacko says:

I beat the senior Vp! he was helpless! Hey, Resistance Rangers, how was your time battling The senior VP?


Petunia Dandyscooter says:

hi! i did vp a lot and i mean a lot of times. its kinda hard though, so yeah. i have a tip! go with eight toons. cause if you dont well youll die unless your really strong! another tip, when you see or even hear the vp jump you jump too!!! or else youll lose laff points!!! ow right?!?! anyway i cant wait till another news story comes out! see ya until then! or even sooner! or someday or some minute or even tomorrow.......... anyway see ya!


lovie says:

this got me to glad hander! thx so much <3!!!


moonlight says:

i think operation: storm sellbot makes things a piece of pie


Crazy Legs says:

I made it all the way on my first try :D GOODEY JELLYBEAN TIPS XD : Have atleast 2 toons in my hollywoods suit on the elevator for ,the cogs are much easier. If you want a challedge, everyone has to has a rental suit! If you want to to be easier....the more toons that earn a cog suit and are on the elevator the easier it gets Another tip: USE SOUND, Get all your teammates to use sound during the cogs rounds and make sure to fill up on laff and sound. I got V.P. done in like 5-10 minutes thanks to using strong sound gags xD Last tip: If you go sad and end up at the playground, dont give up. GIVE IT YOUR ALL! And have fun! -Crazy Legs


Squirel Cheese says:

AHHHHHHHHHH! It was fun.


Stinky says:

We had a blast beating him. The trick is to get one toon in the back of him throwing pies while the rest stay in front. The back guy shoots for the open door.


ToonCouncil says:

It's always smart to have one expert pie-thrower in the group, right Stinky?


Princess Lily says:

I'll say that when you're helping a rental toon, you should keep him or her alive in the pie throwing part of the VP.


Sir Crazy Dizzyswirl says:

TIP: when fighting the vp if u are a pie thrower to clog him up wen the door opens watch out for the gears if u get hit by them u get knocked back and cant throw ur pie!


Molly McMarble says:

When it's time to throw pies at the vp, if you're in the front/back stand to the side of him. Make sure you're not all the way to the side, just angled so he can't hit you as easily! When you throw a pie make sure the pie meter never reaches half way, or else the pie wont make an effect if it goes inside him. The smaller blue in the pie meter, the better it hits him!


Queen Roxy says:

THIS IS SOOO FUN! I reccomend going in with like, 8 other toons so: 1. More people=more gags! 2.It evens it out. Having an odd number makes it like, 3 and 4. Hard to work with. If you do decide to do this, I reccomend filling up full on high power gags because there are LOTS of level 5 cogs and it gets hard.


Pierre Doggensnoop says:

Also, keep quickly throwing pies (while battling the actual vp) and move around until u keep hitting the door, when it opens, u will immediatly stun him. never go up close too


ToonCouncil says:

That's a smart strategy, Pierre Doggensnoop!


Ally McKat says:

Dear EVERY Toon, One of the most important things to do when you V.P. is hit them hard! And show no mercy! Taking fun and wackiness down is terrible, so they should just be nice! But another tip to be a Green Gag Saver is to NOT use your level seven gags on level 1 - 5 Cogs! Its just a plain old waste. Destroy that V.P!, Ally McKat


FizzlePop says:

When i found out about this I was a level 1 Cold Caller NOW i am a telemarketer. Tip: Try to get lots of toons with sound for battle and you will find the battles going by much faster! PLEASE REPLY!


candy hulahopper says:

always go with a team, have gags at hand & stock up on laff points!


quack says:

i have a few tips.1 in the pie round when the vp jumps you should jump too, if you don't when the vp hits the ground you will get knocked down and lose 10 laff. 2 when you are stunning the vp stay to the side a bit. because when the hatch opens gears will come flinging out. so if you stay to the side they can't hit you. 3 when stunning the vp make sure when you throw your pie the power meter is low. if it is not the pie will fly over the hatch.


Frannie says:

Here's a tip for those who don't know how to do this yet. If you see another toon who's a little low on laugh, shoot him with a couple pies and he's fill up in no time! But make sure there's still someone keeping the VP accupied.


ToonCouncil says:

That's Toontastic advice, Frannie!


Silly Slippy says:

You need to jump when the Vp jumps, avoid the gears he throws, and don't bump into him! You should also use sound, it will make it faster!


Rosebud says:

I LOVE vp it's so fun! My tip is to try to get a good group with strong Toons for vp. (Make sure most of them have Toon up and Sound which will help a lot in vp.)


Captain Bingo Thunderslam says:

This is AWESOME!!! I was able to defeat the VP two times in a row. Now I am a level 4 Cold Caller. This will REALLY help younger toons upgrade their Sellbot disguise suits. Toos of the world, UNITE! -Captain Bingo Thunderslam


VerriiBerriiSmoothii says:

IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!! I did it like a GAZILLION times only like twice i didnt die today :P LOL u cant blame me I only have 18 laff but it was AWESOME ill continue. Actually ill go on right now PEACE TOONS!!!


Thomas says:

I have a few tips 1. Always come in with full gags and laff. It can hurt you and your team mates if you don't. 2.Use lure OR sound a lot. These are the best ways to survive the VP. battle. 3. Follw your team. Don't use sound on lured cogs and go for the same cog as the rest of your team, especially if the cogs are lured. 4. Dont stand in front of the door if you are trying to stun the VP. If you do, you will get hit with gears. Stand to the side and wait for the door to open to splat in a pie without getting hurt. I've had great experiences so far. There are many great toons. Happy VPs, everyone!


Zazane says:

I think its easier to stun the vp while he is far away and you are up on the ramp throw a pie far and then you can get him without getting hit yourself. but still you will have to jump!. TOONS AND DOODLES OF THE WORLD UNITE!!!!


ToonCouncil says:

I lilike your naname, Zazane ;)


Princess Taffy Picklewig says:

Just make sure not to follow the vp up after restocking because you will lose a laff point. And sound is very helpful against the cogs and goons, be sure to team up and use it!


silly kippy bumber doodle says:

if you dont stun him for a while he will slowly move up


dottie says:

i have beaten the vp, more than twice! toon tip: have lots of toonup and sound! you'll need them to beat the vp! and even though you don't have sound or toonup yet, it's ok! it doesn't mean it's the end of toontown! toon tip: jump before he gets stunned! the vp could jump in any second in the battle. toon tip: if you lose laff points, get some more by getting toons to heal yourself by throwing pies at you! ok? so if you want to fight the vp, good luck!


Super Funny Dog says:

Heres a tip when the VP is dizzy dont come close to him cause he make his move SWAP and wont be dizzy anymore and i always like to be a mentor toon and help the rentals suit toons.


Bananaspeed says:

This is awesome!!!!, i took part in " OPERATION: STORM SELLBOT' i i have all the SOS cards. WOOT WOOT THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!


ToonCouncil says:

What's the best SOS card you've gotten, Bananaspeed?


Princess Sparklezapper says:

Well i have been in a couple of times already and im helping the low level toons make it through and it is really fun. One peice of advice, is to remember to stock up on pleanty of gags before you go in(:


Funny Doggy says:

It's great to hear that the VP is mad! ( and im sure that the ceo, cj and the cfo arent so happy either.) Well, i have probably battled the VP nine times in the last two days. But sadly i've only defeated it about six times. Its very fun though! My tip is to keep alot of good sound gags on you. Its also good to have a few sos cards on you and just in case that sound misses, at least one person should have a backup gag. Possibly lure. ( You can also do that backwards! ) and the last tip is to stun the VP from the back of him. The rest of the toons can attack from the front. I hope your having a good time battling the VP!


Christopher says:

Since the VP has changed after the doodles...the VP now hits weaker do to its electracity has gone down. The Vp when he jumps -10 but now -5. When he spins let's out gears -2 but now -1. When he open the door -3 or 2 but now -1. If he slaps you -5 but now -2. These are the negitave attacks the VP can do now thanks to those doodles. Thank you doodles keep chewing on those wires. :)


Aunt Binky Wackywig says:

I have a REAL tale to tell about the VP. One day, while Wondercrash and Aunt Binky Wackywig Went to the sellbot hq,They battled the VP. At first, they thought to themselves, "WE ARE GONNA DIE!!!", but then, when they saw all the other toons and their laff points, They chuckled to themselves.Then They battled with the small and great toons and won.and then, they finally shouted out ,"We.....Are.....VICTOURIUS!!!the end. please post i have NEVER been posted!


Master Fireball Gigglebrains says:

Ahh yes, the VP seems to be jumping more than usual. I guess it's because all his attacks are weeker, and he is aware that he is weeker to the pies, and is trying harder to avoid falling off. I'm helping as many rental Toons as possible, the only toons in my groups that aren't using rental suits are me, and whatever friend I take with me. The pies are hitting a bigger splat, so they heal twice as much. Good thing to, as most of the rental toons aren't used to the VP, and the VP is after the weakest toons, trying to pick off the weakest before going after toons like me. So I don't direct my fire at the VP, but at my team, to make sure they don't become sad. The VP must be furious at me, as he sure has fallen off the ledge a lot!


ToonCouncil says:

What a good Mentor you are, Master Fireball Gigglebrains!


Cool Banjo says:

here's a tip for toon cold callers... when your trying to throw a pie into the vp, throw the pie straight not high so that it will go in perfectly! TOONS OF THE WORLD UNITE! p.s. flippy, do you know when the silly meter's goona be fixed?


Miss Violet says:

RULE#1: NEVER fight the V.P. alone!!!!!


little firball sourhopper says:

A great tip is hit from the back if u are a starter advence is hiting in front.jump when he throws gears run back when shower of gears and jump when little gears come out of the front and back slot then hit


Drakath says:

when you beat the first few cogs, dont follow the vp or go on the walkway stay where you wereoh and stun the vp from the back !!!


King slappy jeeperflip (105 laff) says:

A piece of advice save your more powerful gags for the second battle there are higher lever cogs. one more thing go in with at least 7 toons! Mc


Snuffy BizzenBumble says:

My tip is : Make sure you dont get attacked by vp! if you do its alright! now everytime he jumps is -5 and everything is either -2 or -1! so good luck and i hoped that helps!!!! Toons Of The World Attack!


Princess Kitty says:

Well, I have made it through several times. It's soooo fun! So for toons who haven't gone yet, give it a try! I'm even trying to get the reward. I wonder what it is?


ToonCouncil says:

I think you'll like it, Princess Kitty!


Sonic says:

As you know the cogs are now weak so easy for those rounds. But, for the vp round have toons all around him so that they can distract the cog , then the people in the front and back won't have a problem. Also, if a toon is low on laff. Hit him with a pie and instead of getting one laff point back you get two! Arf rruff woof woof arf rruff. Thats dog for Toons of the World Unite!


dippytom rhinohopper says:

with 8 toons sellbotvp will be beging for mercy


Prof. Nutty Googleburger says:

Fighting the VP is awesome! I'm glad to be a part of OPERATION: STORM SELLBOT! Would Sellbot HQ shut down if we realeased our Doodles to chew on wires while we fought the VP? Quick question: I have my suit but since I'm not a member I use a rental. Am I supposed to wear a rental or my Telemarketer suit?


NOODLE FUNNY SOAP SPLATTER says:

Heres a good tip, usually there will be more than one cog out on the battle, so watch what your toon teamates are using to get a damage bonus to work a good cog crushing strategy!


ToonCouncil says:

That's a tip that will help no matter where a Toon is in battle - thanks NOODLE FUNNY SOAP SPLATTER!


jake says:

i once battled the sellbot vp and won! we didnt lose anyone! the reason we won so easy is because i joined a boarding group that had REALLY good people on it. plus, we all aimed for the thing on the top of his head. but more importantly, we all threw pies at each other to boost our laff! TOONS OF THE WORLD UNITE!


Crackers says:

A good thing to have is to be on a Team with stronger Toons. so yourself, and newer toons can learn from them!


Ricardo says:

I have a tip just have good friends


theodrore says:

here is a tip: if you arent a member and you want to vp you can now cause of the doodles shorting out the sellbots anyone can join even if your not a member. And you dont need a suit you get rental suit!!!!!! and it will be fun you should try if you didnt before heres your chance hurry now before cogs figure out the peoblem have fun in toontown :D


Sam says:

I 've got a tip Flippy toons will not get gag expirence points because the cogs are a bit weak leveled so get weak leveled gags.


Fuzz says:

Here is another tip, ive noticed that sometimes when the side of his head with a smile is facing u, it either means he thinks ur done for or hes about to get u. if hes frowning hes trying to get u alot and realizes that NOTHING can beat a barrage of cream pies and toon craziness ( plz post i post to u alot but im never posted :'(


Dusty Rufflebump says:

Hey, Toon Council! I did OPERATION: STORM SELLBOT but I died in battle. It seems that I don't have enough Laff and Gags! Hopefully next time, I will do this!:)


Sunnie says:

A TOONTASTIC TIP: Have Two or Three strong toons and rest rentals so the strong toons can toon up rental and low laff toons also when u fight the vp two people stun the vp from the back and two people stun him in front! Toons and Doodles UNITE!!!!!!!!!!1


superdog says:

dont be scared to go to the vp with low toons the vp and his minions are weak go for it!


ToonCouncil says:

You said it, superdog!


Cuddles says:

Here's my tip. If you need a toon-up during the vp battle, make sure to ask, do not just jump infront of a toon as you may block them from hitting the vp!


Mousie says:

I went into the Sellbot HQ and I almost defeated the VP! I had 24 Laff points, but it was all down to 1 Laff point. My tip is when the VP shoots gears at you, you should jump and back away, it worked every time for me. Also when the VP jumps, you have to jump or you'll lose 5 Laff points. I forgot to jump the one time I had 1 Laff point, so I was sent back to the playground.


sir tricky says:

VP is fun but you don't need a good people to win. The only thing about VP that matters is trying your best. If you lose you try harder next time. I used to have trouble with VP but now I am i telemarketer so you always win if you try.


Olivia says:

Keep your eyes on the boss! You never know what he's going to do.


Drifloon says:

My tip is if you want to stun the V.P fast go to his back door (There aren't many attacks behind him) get as close as you can get the least amount of power then lob it in!!!!


ToonCouncil says:

That's the kind of advice only an expert VP battler could give, Drifloon!


Sally Megaspeed says:

Storm Sellbot is so cool! I've never noticed 'til now how you need to have some good Toons in your group to stun the VP in the third part! My advice to anyone is to have Toons experienced in throwing the Cream Pies in the VP on your group. Another good idea is to throw Cream Pies at people who are running out of laff (usualy at the halfway point). Also, don't be afraid to say, "I need a Toon-up." That lets the other Toons know that you need one. Happy VP-busting! :)


Missy O Soul says:

ALWAYS be facing the v.p.! Especially if your not too high yet or you don't have sound on. He'll jump and lets say your healing someone with the pies, you wont see him! Hope this helps! :)


Princess Dandyscooter says:

The rental suit toons are a lot of fun! I've successfully VPed six times with them. I wish they could stay forever! :)


Captain Coconut Fuzzymonkey says:

I also forgot to add: I wrote a song about OPERATION: STORM SELLBOT: VP Fights ( to the tune of Camptown Races ) VP runners sing this song, doo-dah! Doo-dah! Helping Rentals all day long, oh dee doo-dah day! Getting new gags by the dozen, doo-dah, doo-dah, Helping your mom, dad, and cousin, oh de doo-dah day! Toons fighting galore, Pounding VP to the floor, Pies are flying, Cogs are dieing, Oh, dee do-dah day!


Princess GiggleBubble says:

I found that if you are fighting the V.P's cogs and skelecogs, the sound gag can come in handy a lot, but don't worry if you don't have sound, you can still win. Also, don't go near the V.P. if you run into him you get laff points taken away. Have fun and good luck to all :)


Bright Red Rabbit says:

The key is to have a mixed group to fight the vp I suggest for all you new comers try and mix your selves with other toons so you can fight the vip work on your gags and most importantly HAVE FUN


Scooter Pepperflip says:

Here's an important tip: If a toon has dangerously low Laff Points, throw a pie at them to heal them. (Each pie heals Laff Points).


ToonCouncil says:

Mmm pie... I mean, good tip, Scooter Pepperflip!


ryan says:

When I fight the VP's forces I stock up on sound ( I have up to level 5 gags for sound) I get 2 bike horns, 2 whistles, 2 bugles, 5 aoogahs, and three elephant trunks. I then match the sound gag level to the highest level in that round of cogs. Ex. the highest level cog in the round is a level 3 use the bugle, but if their is a level 5 use the aoogah. brake out the elephant trunks when you fight the skelecogs.


SELENA (15) LAFF POINT says:

I DID IT I FEEL SO HAPPY I DEFEATED THE V.P


Slingshot says:

IT WAS SOOOOO FUN! I've got a tip for everybody! If you are low on laffs get a toon your battling with to throw some pies at you. It gives you 2 laff every pie they throw at you. Also, if you see a toon your battling with has low lives, throw pies at him! Toons Of The World Unite!


sir knuckles mcmonkey says:

it was the longest fight fight ever we had al ready lost three of are toons. The V.P is almost off the edge when finally i make the pie in the door as soon as it opened and we rained down on him with all our might and won.


Doctor Sandy Bumblefussen says:

I have taken part in operation: Storm sellbot so much i'm now a level three name dropper! A tip for rental toons here :make sure you have someone who's done this before because if you go with a group of all rental toons you might not win. I went with a group of me and everyone else was a rental toon. It was the best vp batlle ever! we beat cogs so fast that when it was pie throwing time, we knocked him over the edge in under two minutes!


ToonCouncil says:

Sounds like you're a great Mentor, Doctor Sandy Bumblefussen!


Mister Winky Bizzennose says:

It's important to look out for the lower laff toons, especially less than 17, since they will go sad with quicker than others. Remember to jump when the VP jumps to avoid losing 5 laff points.


Stuffy says:

well, i love doin the v.p. with my friend silly stinky pickleflip and we do it a ton of times and when ur down on laff have a friend hit u with pies so ur laff restocks! urs truly, stuffy ;) =P ~< =P


ladypurpleberry says:

my tip is not to take to long to hit the vp or else he moves back to the same spot he started in.If you watch the wheels you can see them move slowly.try to aim at the vps doors when they open.and one question, are all cogs boys and/or men? ILOVETOONTOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please answer my question thank you!


colonel rubarb purple nerd says:

This is so cool i cant belive just a little gaggle of doodles did this to the sellbot towers! Its just to funny it only took me 10 minouts to defete him my laff is 74 and i used to get sad there all the time im going for my toon helper tee. P.S. what is with these toon resistance toons i havnt seen any. (please post i have never been posted) TOONS OF THE WORLD UNITE!


ToonCouncil says:

The Resistance Rangers are a sneaky bunch, colonel rubarb purple nerd - but if you keep hanging out in Sellbot HQ, you're bound to run into one!


Gabby says:

needed: a full laff meter, all the gags you can hold, and preferably 8 people to help (they dont all have to be very high leveled toons, because the cogs are only level 5) what: fight the vp (easier than it sounds) and rescue a captured toon! now: go and help the toons of the world! Toons Unite!


Dash says:

Tip:You should have about too or three toons in the back of the VP and the rest in the front because the toons in the back will stun the VP and people in the front will hit him and since theirs more toons in the front it will be quicker.


Spunky Hulapocket says:

Heres a tip: If you somebody else has low laff whilst defeating the actual vp, hit the toon to give him/her some laff! another tip: Use sound so it will be much quicker!


Mister pickledorf says:

it's always good to make sure that there aren't too many people stunning him in the back because you need them in the front to hit him when he gets stunned


slylady says:

Here's a tip for the low toons out there. Never use the highest gag in your group if your low on laff in vp! Most of the cogs will go for you if you did them the most damage! Resulting in your toon heading back to the playgorund because the cogs defeated you! Don't let the cogs take advantage of your low expierience in vp!


ToonCouncil says:

That's a good one, Slylady!
