"This clever fox costume allows you to transform into an invincible iron box. Slide along at speed when transformed to smash into various objects!" - Official Website Description
Box Fox can let the wearer (Leo or Emma) transform into an iron box. This box is invincible, and can slide/gain speed, and can smash into objects and Negati. However, the wearer cannot control their movement as a box, nor the timing of when they transform into a box. You can not change into another costume while you are transformed as a box.
