Maybe instant snow?

That's probably the tote
One set of items, collectively, 2 in. x 2 in. x 48 in., 5 lbs.
Aluminum tubes.
One item, 8 in. x 3 in. x 7 in., 14 lbs.
Battery
One very small item.
I have no clue what this could be, or why it can't go in the tote. Maybe the KOP is locked this year and this is the key?

One item, 8 in. x 3 in. x 7 in., 14 lbs. = Battery
One very small item. = A button with Frank Merrick's face on it.
Rookie Kit:
One set of items, collectively, 27 in. x 17 in. x 13 in., 30 lbs. = Rookie Tote
One item, 8 in. x 3 in. x 7 in., 14 lbs. = Battery
Drive Base Kit:
One set of items, collectively, 7 in. x 7 in. x 34 in., 25 lbs. = Drive Base

These seem to be accurate. I thought the tubes could be part of a field element, but if they were in the Kit last year, probably not.

I can hope though right?  . |
Maybe dice/a die? But
they're pretty inexpensive, so why only send one? Game pieces last year became damaged from being shoved in the tote, so they might be outside of it this year.

My thoughts exactly, but as someone else said it is just one item...

Possibly, if it folds up tightly.
Maybe it's a battery for the minibot or a minibot kit?
