What are these...?

I'm so hoping somebody may be able to solve this twenty year old mystery for me. lol The below pix is of these little plastic figures I use to play with as a kid. I have no clue what they're called. But they're made by Takara/Hasbro in 1987. They use to have little stickers on their chest that would react to your fingers' heat, and I think show like an earth element.

Any ideas?

Those would be Battle Beasts. And I had a slew of them also when I was a kid. Haven't seen any in ages, though.

"This series was a spinoff of the Transformers." Now that makes sense why I liked them so much and hung onto them.

What'd y'all do with your Battle Beasts?

That's pretty wild - it sounds like your friend will love it. I do recall those stickers!
