Robert "Bobby" "Streex" Bolton Jr. is known as the "cool" brother, self-proclaimed ladies' man. He's seen everywhere wearing his rollerblades, and he appears to enjoy extreme sports like street hockey, parachuting, and snowboarding. Later on, he demonstrates the ability to play drums professionally. When he transforms into Streex, he becomes a Tiger Shark. He gets his name from the purple streaks on his body. In the pilot episodes (eventually to be episodes 1-3), he was originally called "Blade", due to his skills as a rollerblader.
He was voiced by Andrew Rannells in the 1994 TV series.
Design[]
Bobby is a young muscular handsome man with brown hair and brown eyes that wears white button-up shirt with red stripes as the sleeves were ripped to make it sleeveless, lime green shorts with brown belt, and black rollerskates.
In To Shark or Not to Shark, his brown hair was dyed blond and wears a brown formal vest with a white long sleeved collared button-up shirt underneath with a single gold button on the collar, indigo formal slacks and black dress shoes. When he transforms again into a shark, he was seen in bare feet while being depicted wearing his lime green shorts.
As Streex, he becomes a light blue tiger shark with purple stripes. His button shirt was ripped into shreds to make him shirtless and still wears the lime green shorts. He also wears black fingerless gloves, red knee pads, and black with turquoise detailed rollerskates.

Toys[]
Streex, originally called Bladez in the toyline, was one of the first figures released. Streex was one of the few figures with more then two points of articulation, having waist, shoulder, and wrist rotation. Streex's gimmick, besides his built in roller blades, was if you pressed the plug on his shoulder, his claws would extend. Streex was re-painted for series two, featuring the same gimmicks as the first, just with a more metallic paint job
For series three, Streex was given a gimmick like his brothers, becoming what fans called 'Slap-Shot Streex' or 'Hockey Streex'. The tiger shark now had a hockey based costume, complete with mask. The toy would use a built in gimmick to swing a hockey stick. Series 4 saw Streex as 'Moto Streex' where you'd pull back on the figure, and due to a wind up mechanism in his now 'motorized' rollerblades, would propel him forward. In series 5, Streex became Sting-Shot Streex, in the Night Fighters line. Here he was able to launch a cactus as a weapon, while wearing a mouth and nose guard. Streex was redesigned again in Space Force, becoming 'Battle Claw Streex', where he wears an astronaut suit. He now brandishes a massive, bent sword as a weapon, and massive claws on his left hand.
Streex was also released as a Hand-Shark, and was going to be a 'Shark Buddy', a full bodied plush toy that also acted like a Puppet.
In 2024 as part of the Street Sharks 30th anniversary toyline, Streex was given a toy similar to his original action figure but with added articulation. Rather than pressing a button on his shoulder to extend his claws, he comes with an extra set of hands with longer claws that can be swapped with his normal hands. Unlike the original, this allows both hands to have extended claws.
