The Vault Boy is the mascot of the company Vault-Tec | The Vault Boy is the mascot of the company Vault-Tec, which designed post-apocalyptic shelters called Vaults to enable humanity to survive in the aftermath of a worldwide nuclear war, though the majority of these Vaults were in reality controlled experiments. The Vault Boy illustrates character statistics and selectable attributes, and from ''Fallout 3'' onward, models wearable equipment. Vault Boy should not be confused with the Pip Boy; the wearable computer used by the player to access their inventory. | ||

A [[DLC]] costume for {{SSBU|Mii Gunner}} based on the Vault Boy was announced on June | A [[DLC]] costume for {{SSBU|Mii Gunner}} based on the Vault Boy was announced on June 22, 2020, and will be available for purchase on June 29. Like [[Sans]] and [[Cuphead]] before him, Vault Boy seems to be a fully modelled character. His "mask" is just his head instead of a mask with the Mii's head visible. His gun appears to be based off the Alien Blaster, an energy pistol that shows up multiple times throughout the series. His Vault Suit is labeled '111' on the back, a reference to the Sole Survivor's vault in Fallout 4. Unlike Sans and Cuphead however, Vault Boy does not come with a music track. | ||
