Everyone wants them for the thrill and suspense of collecting figures, from the common Troopers to the rare Star Warriors (including Tuff's Golden Star Warrior, and Iro's Meta-Knight), except Kirby, who is given the chocolate. But King Dedede gets in on the act, and gets arrested for trying to steal Iro's figure. When he gets out, he decides to get even by ordering up new toys from who else - NightMare Enterprises. The new figures are a martial arts series that just literally dropped from the sky. Everyone wants them, in hopes of getting the figures seen on TV.

The citizens find out that these figures are destroyed by a solid hit, so they all run for Kirby's house to enlist his help in eliminating them. Before that can happen, King Dedede challenges Kirby to do battle with his fighters - the figures everyone wanted to get, which are a boxer, karate master, Tai-Chi master, Sumo wrestler, and a ninja with nunchuks. At first, it's a five-on-one beatdown in Dedede Stadium (which is just a stadium built in the castle courtyard). But Kirby sucks up their attacks to become Fighter Kirby, and takes them on one-on-one. Meta-Knight says Kirby will learn the true mastery of his powers when pushed to his limits, but even then, does Kirby have the power to brawl with the best?

Dedede You Trust Me."", which leaves some confused Cappies wondering why they're suddenly fond of their ruler. The next nights involve Dedede planting a message for them to leave all their loose change in the doll, then all their money. The citizens do this in their sleep, and on the next two mornings, think they've found extra money. So Dedede opens a bank for them to stash their cash, and he gives his own merchandise as incentive for opening an account. It seems the only citizen unaffected is Meta-Knight, and for once, he wonders if Tiff has any suspicions about this. However, Dedede is missing money.
