I didn't think about this till I read the Headhunter B.A.T. filecard from the Joecon set. Was it ever explained why B.A.T.s wear clothing?
As a kid I never wondered why they had clothing on and up until today I began to wonder it when I read the file card over at yojoe.com.

I don't know about you but the only thing worse than robot-assisted terrorism is indecent robot-assisted terrorism. Kudos to Cobra for showing some morals in these turbulent times.

Everyone at Cobra expects a little Mindbender flare when he creates something. Besides, clothes are cheaper to cover metal circuits than actual armor. B.A.T.s on a budget, if you ask me.

I beleive a BAT wears clothing becuase in the middle of mass terrorism, it confuses the enemy as to who is actually human.
By the way, i just got back from the store no longer than 10 minutes ago and I gotta big ole' smile on my face... I just found a BAT, Snow Serpent, and Ninja Ku! Yay!!!!!!!!! |

Remember how embarrassed 3PO got when he wasn't properly covered?

To keep Cobra laundry staff busy.
Perhaps it is flame retardant ?
