Hi

Blot (G1)

RipCliffjumper2018: Changed the joke I put on the image slightly. Instead of cannibal, I put glutton because it fits Hun-Gar more.

:''Blot is a [[Decepticon]] [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcon]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:G1Blot boxart.jpg|upright=2|thumb|Alright, I get the hint. Stop leaving scented bath soaps in my locker.]]
There's only one thing [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s both agree on with no war or argument, and it's this: '''Blot''' is the most vile and disgusting Transformer ever assembled. He oozes fluids of questionable nature from various joints on his frame, and has a rank odor that usually keeps foes and allies far away from him. Naturally, all this scorn and insult has given the less-than-smart Blot quite the inferiority complex. Stuck with a hygiene problem he can't control and a central processor a few hertz too slow, Blot is both unable to solve the problems of his own stench and talk back to the insulting comments from his peers. Brutish and slow-witted, Blot is the classic dumb bully to those who don't give him respect... although he's not sharp enough to tell when said respect is faked. He's immensely loyal to those who at the very least pretend he's worth something, and [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]] in particular is a Decepticon to whom he shows unwavering support.

The other [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], on the other hand, tolerate Blot enough, but are apprehensive about combining into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] with him, as it takes far too long to remove the stench he's passed on to them after they're finished.

{{bigquote|I'm not as bad as I look—I'm worse.|Blot's [[bio]] quote actually sums him up.}}

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
[[File:Blotcomic.jpg|left|upright=0.85|thumb|Look! It's my magic nose goblin! He loves making humans go squish!]]
Blot served [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] with his fellow Terrorcons, until the disappearance of [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Fortress Maximus]], their greatest nemesis. After being alerted to the presence of Fortress Maximus and the Autobots on the distant planet [[Nebulos]], Blot and the Decepticons tracked down their quarry at the planet's capital city, [[Koraja]]. Unfortunately for the Decepticons, the newly minted Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] were more than tough enough to drive off the invaders. {{storylink|Broken Glass!}} The Decepticons were only temporarily deterred, however, and continued their reign of terror on Nebulos. Scorponok sent Blot and the Terrorcons, along with the [[Horrorcon (G1)|Horrorcons]], to attack the resort city of [[Splendora]]. When the Autobots arrived to defend the city, the Terrorcons merged to form [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]], but the united [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]] became [[Computron (G1)|Computron]], who used a combination of acid pellets and brute force to disassemble the robot and drive off the Decepticons. {{storylink|Love and Steel!}} Blot and the Terrorcons also joined Scorponok in an attack on the [[Nursery (Nebulos)|Nursery]], where they encountered another new kind of Autobot/Nebulon fusion: [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]. Blot held his own with the aid of his [[Slime gun|slimegun]], and the Autobots eventually realized that the battle was bringing ruin to the agricultural facility. They fled from Blot and the rest of the Decepticons to bring an end to the carnage. {{storylink|Brothers in Armor!!}}

[[File:DarkStar-BlotTracks.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Blot firmly believes the crotch is the funniest part of the body to acid-bathe.]]
The Decepticons eventually traveled to [[Earth]], and came into conflict with both Autobot and Decepticon alike. After a brief [[Decepticon Civil War]], the united forces of [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] and Scorponok turned their rage on the Autobots under [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]]'s command. Blot gleefully joined in the battle, blasting the veteran Autobot [[Tracks (G1)|Tracks]] with his acid spray. All parties eventually joined forces, however, against the [[Underbase]]-enhanced might of [[Starscream (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Starscream]]. The Terrorcons attempted to confront Starscream in [[Buenos Aires]], [[Argentina]], but were annihilated with a single wave of his hand. {{storylink|Dark Star}}

=====Marvel UK future timelines=====
[[File:Blot headhunt.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.8|Death's Head then immediately regretted having direct physical contact with Blot.]]
[[File:Blot cutthroat time wars.jpg|thumb|upright=0.5]]
In [[2007]], Blot was sent to the freelance peacekeeping agent known as [[Death's Head (G1)|Death's Head]] as an emissary for the Decepticon army. Death's Head had sought a bounty against [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] months earlier, only to have the offerrer, [[Hot Rod (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Rodimus Prime]], interfere with the collection and rescind the offer. Blot proposed the mechanoid use Decepticon resources to enter Cybertron undetected and track Rodimus Prime's predicted movements to get his revenge. Death's Head was unconvinced by this appeal to his sense of pride, so then Blot appealed to his wallet and instantly the mech was interested in the deal. {{storylink|Headhunt}}

Frothing at the mouth (and the neck, and the ankle joints, and...), Blot enjoyed terrorizing the human population on [[2009]] while on his way to the latest [[energon]] extraction site the Decepticons had rigged up. Unfortunately for them, [[Soundwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Soundwave]] and the Terrorcons proved incapable of fending off an Autobot strike team, who quickly destroyed their laboriously assembled drill. Seeking revenge, Blot and the others chased their foes back to [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]], only to end up passing through a [[trans-time dimensional portal]] and getting caught up in fighting for the fate of the universe. It seems the former 21st century Decepticon leader Galvatron had been active in the 20th century for too long, causing a timestorm which threatened both ends of the timeline, at [[1989]] and 2009.

Soundwave ostensibly agreed to help their 20th century counterparts, but in reality kept Blot and the other Terrorcons in reserve, hoping the other various factions present would do the heavy lifting for them. In the end, Soundwave and the 2009 Terrorcons chose the better part of valor and fled back to their home time rather than face the fighting mad Galvatron. {{storylink|Time Wars}}

====''Classics''====
{{noteclassics}}
Hun-Grrr was framed by the [[Seacon (G1)|Seacon]]s as a traitor in the Decepticon ranks. When Bludgeon and the Seacons confronted him about it, the Terrorcon leader summoned Blot and the others to form Abominus and defend his name. Ultimately, though, Abominus fell in battle with [[Piranacon (G1)|Piranacon]]. {{storylink|At Fight's End}}

====''Regeneration One''====
{{NoteRG1}}
By [[2012]] Blot had been partially revived and pressed into service as part of [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]'s lobotomised [[zombie]] army. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 4}} When the [[Autobot]]s arrived from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to confront Megatron, Blot was shot down by [[Hound (G1)|Hound]]. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 5}}

====''Transformers '84''====
Following the departure of the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] and ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'' from Cybertron, Blot fell in amongst Lord [[Straxus (G1)|Straxus]]'s troops and helped him carve out his own Decepticon empire by attempting to purge every surviving Autobot on the planet. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 3|Secrets & Lies #3}} When Straxus later planned to reactivate [[Project Dreadnought]], he sent [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] to defend the [[Planetary engine|planetary turbines]]' control hub in [[Stanix]], where the [[combiner]] encountered [[Punch (G1)|Punch]] and the [[Wreckers]]. After a blow from [[Rack'n'Ruin (G1)|Rack'n'Ruin]]'s [[Hammer (weapon)|hammer]] brought Abominus crashing down, Blot and the other Terrorcons separated to battle the Wreckers individually but the Autobots disengaged and retreated as the explosives they had already laid inside the base detonated. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 4|Secrets & Lies #4}}

===Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''The Transformers'' cartoon====
{{voiceactor|[[Tony St. James]] (English), [[Ken Yamaguchi]] (Japanese)}}
[[File:Money-is-everything-terrorcons-robotmode.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.1|Don't kick [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]] in the head]]
Blot's first appearance was with his fellow Terrorcons inside [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]]'s head. [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] used them to blast into Unicron so he could retrieve more [[anti-electron]]s for an attack against the Autobots. Blot and the others did a decent job in keeping the Autobots at bay, but were quickly forced into retreating when [[Grimlock (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Grimlock]] finished building the Technobots and gave them the ability to merge into Computron. {{storylink|Grimlock's New Brain}}

[[File:MoneyIsEverything CutthroatBlot.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Unused animation from ''Fantasia''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s "Dance of the Hours".]]
Later, the Terrorcons were seen under the service of the [[Quintesson]]s. [[Dirk Manus]] had sold the Quintessons a [[Recreator|Molecular Disassembler/Reassembler]]. Eager to test the device, they had Blot act as the volunteer. The test proved that the device not only disassembled and reassembled matter like the name implied, but also cured whatever it had been used on of all broken parts, maladies, and other flaws. Cured of his imperfections, Blot felt sick.

[[File:Terrorconfight.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|So a landfill, a glutton, and a sadist walk into a bar...]]
When Dirk and his Technobot escorts were on their way through space, Abominus swooped down and attacked, shooting them from the sky. The [[automatic timer]] in Abominus, placed within by the Quintessons, forced Abominus to separate into his Terrorcon components. The team was upset they couldn't finish the task of destroying the Autobots, though Blot and the team did get a second chance at going against Computron later. {{storylink|Money Is Everything (episode)|Money Is Everything}}

Blot was one of the [[Primitive]]s summoned to fight [[Tornedron]]. Blot joined the other Terrorcons in a last-ditch stand against the energy creature, but the group was surrounded and drained of their energy. They, like the rest of Tornedron's victims, were restored thanks to Grimlock's actions.
{{storylink|Call of the Primitives}}

Blot, along with the rest of the Terrorcons, stole [[Impervious alloy|heat-resistant alloy]] from the [[Mark Morgan|Morgan]]/[[Gregory Swofford|Swofford]] lab. {{storylink|The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1}}

In [[2007]], Blot participated in an attack on [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]] in order to draw the Autobots' attention while [[Wingspan]] and [[Pounce]] stole the [[Key to the Plasma Energy Chamber|Key]] to the [[Plasma Energy Chamber]].{{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 1}} He later took part in the battle on Cybertron, assualting the Autobots' postions. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 3}}

====Japanese cartoon continuity====
=====''The Headmasters'' cartoon=====
In [[2011]], Blot and the Terrorcons journeyed to Cybertron over the long-abandoned Decepticon [[space bridge|Space Bridge]]. They were part of the first wave of Galvatron's siege, hoping to gain control of [[Vector Sigma]]. Blot's team combined into Abominus to battle [[Superion (G1)|Superion]]. {{storylink|Four Warriors Come out of the Sky}} Later on, Abominus teamed up with his fellow combiners to wage war on their Autobot counterparts. Their victory seemed assured until the [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Battleship Maximus]] swooped in and scattered the Decepticon combiners. They barely survived the encounter. {{storylink|The Mystery of Planet Master}} On Earth, Blot and the Terrorcons intervened on [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]]'s search for the [[Matrix of Leadership]]. [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] and the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] kept the Terrorcons busy so that Hot Rod could complete his mission. Even after the Terrorcons formed Abominus, the Headmasters stood against them, and the arrival of Computron swung the odds firmly on the Autobots' side. Abominus was last seen with his head buried in the sand, being kicked in the side by Computron. {{storylink|Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime}}

When Galvatron launched a [[Metamorphose|metal-warping meteorite]] at the Autobots on [[Athenia]], he brought along Blot and the Terrorcons to occupy the Autobot forces. Linking up as Abominus, they once again battled Computron and the Headmasters. {{storylink|Approach of the Demon Meteorite}}

[[File:Hm14 Blot Gun.jpg|thumb|200px|Get out of my swamp!]]
[[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] devised a scheme to harvest [[plasma energy]] from the planet [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] by setting off a series of explosives that would utterly destroy the planet, releasing its stored energies. Blot and the Terrorcons were responsible for planting the bombs. Hun-Gurrr was spotted by [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]], [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]], and [[Shouki]] of the Trainbots, but the other Terrorcons managed to take them hostage. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! Maximus Is in Danger}} Blot and the Terrorcons managed to get two of the three sites set before being set upon by [[Raiden]] and the Headmasters. By forming Abominus, Blot's team held their own until Scorponok arrived with his mighty [[Transtector]], MegaZarak. The giant scorpion occupied the Autobots long enough for the Terrorcons to finish their work, and Mars was consumed by the resultant atomic inferno. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! MegaZarak Appears}}

Soon after, Blot and the Terrorcons joined Sixshot the returning Galvatron on an energy raid. They sought to prevent the Autobots from re-energizing the distant world of [[Sandra (planet)|Sandra]], and steal the energy for themselves. Blot's team formed Abominus for yet another in a series of battles against Computron. {{storylink|SOS from Planet Sandra}}

[[File:IRMLFE Decepticon cheer.jpg|thumb|200px|left]]
After an extended mission in space, Blot returned with Galvatron and the other Decepticons, setting up shop on Earth under Sixshot's command. He joined an enormous offensive against the Autobots' facility in [[Florida|Miami]], drawing out the troops from Autobot City so that Sixshot could kill [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. Body-slamming Computron as Abominus was just icing on the cake. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus Dies!!}} The warfare on Earth continued, as Blot and the Terrorcons assembled as Abominus in part of a five-fold simultaneous strike on Autobot interests engineered by Sixshot. {{storylink|The Emperor of Destruction Vanishes on an Iceberg}} As Scorponok assumed control of the Decepticons again, Blot was seen at a rally being held in his honor on Chaar. Blot and the Terrorcons later joined a Decepticon strike on the [[Kamchatka Peninsula]], seeking to gain control of the [[Pacific Ring of Fire]]. {{storylink|I Risk My Life for Earth}}

As Scorponok abandoned Earth in favor of conquering [[Master (planet)|Master]], Blot was one of his many troops seen attacking the planet's fortifications. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)}} As part of Abominus, Blot participated in the final battle with the Autobots at the North Pole. He escaped into space with the rest of Scorponok's Decepticons. {{storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)}}

Seeking to create a [[Decepticon Zone]] to counter the [[Micro|Autobot Zone]], [[Emperor of Destruction|Decepticon Emperor]] [[Violengiguar]] gathered together the [[Nine Great Demon Generals]], upgrading them with powerful new armor and weaponry, then sent them forth to conquer planets.

=====''Generations Selects Special Comic''=====
[[File:Blot_Selects.jpg|thumb|170px|Blot's audition for the role of Purplesaurus Rex went poorly.]]
Blot and his colleagues were sent by the [[Quintesson]]s to help the humans in their conflict against the [[Selector]]s, [[Autobot]]s, and [[Decepticon]]s. {{storylink|Volcanicus comic 2}} Due to Blot's newly acquired possession of [[Angolmois Energy]], he began leaking [[anti-electron]] gas from his body. The dim-witted Terrorcon used his [[slime gun]] to fire anti-electron imbued oil at [[Orthia]], forcing the all-female combiner to split up into her individual components. Blot was later seen having a wrestling match with fellow Terrorcon [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]], and also participated in the counter-strike on [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]] at [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]]'s command.

Blot expressed shock when Megatron absorbed his Angolmois Energy, but later received the upper hand when Hun-Gurrr received the [[Terrorbreaster]] deployed by his Quintesson masters, allowing the Terrorcons to combine into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]]. However, Megatron evolved into Megatron Omega from his stockpiled Angolmois Energy and briefly attacked the brutish combiner. Abominus shot a hole in his former ally's chest and left him for dead, {{Storylink|Abominus comic 1}} but Megatron Omega ultimately survived the attack.

Blot was present as part of Abominus during his attack on [[Neo Scramble City]], and was temporarily left out of the combiner when Hun-Gurrr and [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]] assimilated [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] and [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]]'s limbs to become [[Abomenaticus]]. Blot later recombined with Hun-Gurrr upon Abomenaticus's reconfiguration into Abominus to fight Megatron Omega. Following Abominus's failure to defeat Megatron and alliance with [[Volcanicus (POTP)|Volcanicus]], the Terrorcons entered a portal with the Dinobot combiner {{Storylink|Abominus comic 2}} to the [[Blue Planet (GS)|Blue Planet]] and split up into their individual forms. Blot was present on the planet's surface when Hun-Gurrr assisted Volcanicus in his fight against [[Primacron]]. {{storylink|Generations Selects Special Comic Finale Part 2|Finale 2}}

====''The Great Transformer War''====
Blot and the Terrorcons were defeated in battle as Abominus by Computron. They switched tactics and split into their individual modes to spray Computron with "[[Cohesive Control Liquid]]", forcing him onto the Decepticon side. The Technobots were eventually freed when Spike Witwicky blasted them with a counter-spray. The now clear-minded Computron then proceeded to crush the individual Terrorcons. {{storylink|The Great Transformer War issue 2|The Great Transformer War #2}}

===''Transformers in 3-D''===
The Terrorcons and [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] intercepted [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]]'s team during the search for [[Metascan Alpha]]. The Terrorcons united into Abominus, but the Autobots ignored them and continued with their mission. A short time later, Abominus came under attack from the [[Destructon]]s and was blasted apart. The Terrorcons began a retreat and found themselves being aided by Ultra Magnus, resulting in Cyclonus agreeing to a truce between the two factions. {{storylink|The War Against the Destructons, Chapter 1 of 3}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
:*''First Appearance:'' [[Spotlight: Sixshot]]

[[File:MegatronOrigin4 BlotFights.jpg|upright=0.95|thumb|right|Suspect is considered armed and extremely smelly.]]
Blot was one of the earlier warriors seen in the [[Gladiatorial combat|bloodsport tournaments]] on [[Kaon (polity)|Kaon]], part of [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]]'s team as the future [[Decepticon leader]] rose in prominence. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 2|Megatron Origin #2}} He remained part of the movement when the pit-fighting broke out into active terrorism, and was seen dismembering security officers with his extra arms just before [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]] returned with his [[Apex Armor (G1)|Apex Armor]]. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 4|Megatron Origin #4}}

During [[Zeta Prime (G1)|Zeta Prime]]'s era, Blot frequented [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]]'s bar and threw a glass at [[Jetfire (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Jetfire]] when the scientist entered the joint. {{storylink|What It's Really Like}} When Megatron was defeated at the hands of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]], [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]] disapproved and had him exiled to [[Junkion (planet)|Junkion]]. Blot and the Terrorcons also disapproved, but thought his choice of punishment was lame and set out to get rid of their old leader permanently. {{storylink|Wreckage (issue)|Wreckage}} Unfortunately, they turned out to have vastly underestimated Megatron's power and found themselves easily dispatched, after which they were quick to re-pledge their allegiance to him. {{storylink|Prey (issue)|Prey}} After returning to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and taking back control of the Decepticons, Megatron punished Scorponok by having Blot and the Terrorcons tear him apart. {{storylink|The Illusion of Control}}

[[File:Blot and Triggerhappy The End of the Beginning of the World.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|left|Well, so much for there being an IDW appearance of Abominus.]]
As the war went on, the Terrorcons became major fanboys of [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]]. They were deployed to [[Mumu-Obscura]], but were taken prisoner by the [[Reaper]]s to lure Sixshot to the planet. The Reapers offered membership to their little club so long as Sixshot destroyed the Terrorcons, to which Blot offered no reaction whatsoever, nor did he react when Sixshot appeared to take the Reapers up on their offer. After Sixshot declined the invitation, the Reapers allowed the Decepticons to leave in peace. {{storylink|Spotlight: Sixshot}}

Blot later returned to Cybertron, where he was part of an angry Decepticon crowd who demanded answers from the [[Autobot]]s for [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]]'s death. {{storylink|Stick Together}} He joined up with [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Shockwave]], who was trying to lead the Decepticons back into war, only to be taken out by [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]] while guarding their base. {{storylink|The End of the Beginning of the World}}

**''Team ID number:'' '''TR4'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-83'''
**''Accessories:'' [[slime gun]], laser mount
:''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Blot transforms into a navy blue and lavender monster. What sort of monster is a hard thing to determine, as the details molded into him don't particularly point to any one creature. His shoulder span and long arms indicate something ape-like, while his pointed nose and sloped head give him a mole-like appearance. Pretty much, if you say Blot looks like something (say, a giant ambulatory nose), he has a decent chance of actually looking like it. However, his [[Blot (SG)|''Shattered Glass'' counterpart]]'s bio states that it is an ogre.

:Blot's monster mode is nicely poseable for the time, having hinge elbows and full swivel shoulders and hips. His head can also rise up a bit, but due to his unpainted eyes, the effect is negligible. In robot mode, his articulation is reduced to just a single joint per arm. His box art shows these to be his elbows, but from looking at just the toy, they could be his shoulders. Due to his broad monster mode width, Blot's small, square-peg head conspires against him and makes him look immensely out of proportion. Blot's monster arms are supposed to store on his back in robot mode, but they can also be flipped up over his head to be less [[kibble]]-worthy.<ref>https://www.seibertron.com/transformers-toys/view/g1-1987/blot/2952/1/63/</ref>

:He can form the leg or arm of any [[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]-style combiner, though he is nominally Abominus's right arm. His usefulness as a leg is highly questionable, as his extraordinary width tends to push against whoever is positioned opposite him. Even his arm mode is far from ideal, as his beast mode legs project so far out that even Abominus' specially-shaped gun only barely clears them. He can also attach to Metroplex's robot mode.

:There is a variant of Blot which does not have the [[rubsign]] indent.

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' "Terrorcon Blot" is a heavy retool of [[Rippersnapper (G1)#Generations|Terrorcon Rippersnapper]] that transforms into an ogre-like creature based on his original toy. Blot can also change into a limb for any ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style Combiner (or into one of [[Godbomber#Legends|''Legends'' Godbomber]]'s legs), although he is meant to combine with [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)#Generations|Hun-Gurrr]] to form [[Abominus (G1)#Generations|Abominus]]. Like all ''Power of the Primes'' Deluxe Class figures, he comes with Prime Armor with a spot for [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]s (and by extension, [[Titan Master#Toys|Titan Master]]s, [[Enigma of Combination#Generations|Enigmas of Combination]], or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix cores]]) and can form a Combiner hand. He includes a piece that can fill the gap in the armor or be held as a gun.

:Blot's gun has a relatively short 5 mm peg. Combined with the claws that stick up above his hands, this means that he has trouble holding it securely. Blot also features an additional piece of plastic attached to the swivel that manages his ogre mode head and top, primarily used to mount weapons in ogre mode, though with the exception of his leg mode this part conspicuously sticks out of every one of his modes with no proper means of collapsing it.

:Despite being a retool of Rippersnapper, Blot thankfully did not inherit the Combiner peghole problem, as his is molded in much thicker plastic.

:Blot was retooled further into ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' [[Lobclaw#Generations|Lobclaw]] and [[Gulf#Generations|Gulf]]. The original mold was also differently retooled into [[Overbite (Masterforce)#Generations|Overbite]].

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' "Butto" is a cartoon-accurate redeco of his ''Power of the Primes'' release. He features a lighter shade of purple plastic, and numerous different paint applications, mostly consisting of removing the silver paint on his chest and legs and adding red accents on his "nipples". Minor deco changes include two Decepticon insignias on his shoulders, silver spots on the sides of his stomach, as well as blue accents on his knees and crotch.

:Originally slated for release on [[March 27]], Butto's release was pushed back to April 17.

==Notes==
*In the 2010s, Hasbro lead designer [[John Warden]] asked TakaraTomy staff on behalf of all us fans what Blot's alt-mode is supposed to be. The answer they gave was ogre. Your mileage may vary.<ref>[https://twitter.com/tfwiki/status/916108775790137344 NYCC 2017 comment observed by [[Matthew Karpowich]]; tweet by @tfwiki, 5 October 2017]</ref>
*In the 2005 IDW Continuity, Blot may or may not be alive following Arcee's attack. It all depends on how snarkily you wish to interpret John Barber's tweets. However, seeing as he never makes another appearance, things aren't looking too good for ol' Blot.<ref>https://twitter.com/TheJohnBarber/status/282262789031075840 Tweet by [[John Barber]], 2012/12/21: "I think Blip would be really ticked off if I killed his brother."</ref>

===Foreign names===
*''Japanese:'' '''Butto''' (ブット),<ref>While usually written "Butt", Blot's Japanese name is in fact rather difficult to transliterate into English, being essentially "foot" with a "b" sound instead of an "f". In katakana, "butt" is usually rendered バット ''batto'', while "boot" is ブート ''būto''. It is likely that "butto" is a misspelling, intentional or otherwise, of "Blot" (ブロット ''Burotto'').</ref> '''Blot''' (ブロット ''Burotto'')
*''French:'' '''Extermino''' (Canada)
*''Italian:'' '''Spectrobot'''
*''Mandarin:'' '''Wūdiǎn''' (China, 污点, "Stain"), '''Xuèwū Xióng''' (China, 血污熊, "Bloodstained Bear")

{{disambigm|Blot (disambiguation)|Blight (disambiguation)}}
:''Blot is a [[Decepticon]] [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcon]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:G1Blot boxart.jpg|upright=2|thumb|Alright, I get the hint. Stop leaving scented bath soaps in my locker.]]
There's only one thing [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s both agree on with no war or argument, and it's this: '''Blot''' is the most vile and disgusting Transformer ever assembled. He oozes fluids of questionable nature from various joints on his frame, and has a rank odor that usually keeps foes and allies far away from him. Naturally, all this scorn and insult has given the less-than-smart Blot quite the inferiority complex. Stuck with a hygiene problem he can't control and a central processor a few hertz too slow, Blot is both unable to solve the problems of his own stench and talk back to the insulting comments from his peers. Brutish and slow-witted, Blot is the classic dumb bully to those who don't give him respect... although he's not sharp enough to tell when said respect is faked. He's immensely loyal to those who at the very least pretend he's worth something, and [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]] in particular is a Decepticon to whom he shows unwavering support.

The other [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], on the other hand, tolerate Blot enough, but are apprehensive about combining into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] with him, as it takes far too long to remove the stench he's passed on to them after they're finished.

{{bigquote|I'm not as bad as I look—I'm worse.|Blot's [[bio]] quote actually sums him up.}}

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
[[File:Blotcomic.jpg|left|upright=0.85|thumb|Look! It's my magic nose goblin! He loves making humans go squish!]]
Blot served [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] with his fellow Terrorcons, until the disappearance of [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Fortress Maximus]], their greatest nemesis. After being alerted to the presence of Fortress Maximus and the Autobots on the distant planet [[Nebulos]], Blot and the Decepticons tracked down their quarry at the planet's capital city, [[Koraja]]. Unfortunately for the Decepticons, the newly minted Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] were more than tough enough to drive off the invaders. {{storylink|Broken Glass!}} The Decepticons were only temporarily deterred, however, and continued their reign of terror on Nebulos. Scorponok sent Blot and the Terrorcons, along with the [[Horrorcon (G1)|Horrorcons]], to attack the resort city of [[Splendora]]. When the Autobots arrived to defend the city, the Terrorcons merged to form [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]], but the united [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]] became [[Computron (G1)|Computron]], who used a combination of acid pellets and brute force to disassemble the robot and drive off the Decepticons. {{storylink|Love and Steel!}} Blot and the Terrorcons also joined Scorponok in an attack on the [[Nursery (Nebulos)|Nursery]], where they encountered another new kind of Autobot/Nebulon fusion: [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]. Blot held his own with the aid of his [[Slime gun|slimegun]], and the Autobots eventually realized that the battle was bringing ruin to the agricultural facility. They fled from Blot and the rest of the Decepticons to bring an end to the carnage. {{storylink|Brothers in Armor!!}}

[[File:DarkStar-BlotTracks.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Blot firmly believes the crotch is the funniest part of the body to acid-bathe.]]
The Decepticons eventually traveled to [[Earth]], and came into conflict with both Autobot and Decepticon alike. After a brief [[Decepticon Civil War]], the united forces of [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] and Scorponok turned their rage on the Autobots under [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]]'s command. Blot gleefully joined in the battle, blasting the veteran Autobot [[Tracks (G1)|Tracks]] with his acid spray. All parties eventually joined forces, however, against the [[Underbase]]-enhanced might of [[Starscream (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Starscream]]. The Terrorcons attempted to confront Starscream in [[Buenos Aires]], [[Argentina]], but were annihilated with a single wave of his hand. {{storylink|Dark Star}}

=====Marvel UK future timelines=====
[[File:Blot headhunt.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.8|Death's Head then immediately regretted having direct physical contact with Blot.]]
[[File:Blot cutthroat time wars.jpg|thumb|upright=0.5]]
In [[2007]], Blot was sent to the freelance peacekeeping agent known as [[Death's Head (G1)|Death's Head]] as an emissary for the Decepticon army. Death's Head had sought a bounty against [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] months earlier, only to have the offerrer, [[Hot Rod (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Rodimus Prime]], interfere with the collection and rescind the offer. Blot proposed the mechanoid use Decepticon resources to enter Cybertron undetected and track Rodimus Prime's predicted movements to get his revenge. Death's Head was unconvinced by this appeal to his sense of pride, so then Blot appealed to his wallet and instantly the mech was interested in the deal. {{storylink|Headhunt}}

Frothing at the mouth (and the neck, and the ankle joints, and...), Blot enjoyed terrorizing the human population on [[2009]] while on his way to the latest [[energon]] extraction site the Decepticons had rigged up. Unfortunately for them, [[Soundwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Soundwave]] and the Terrorcons proved incapable of fending off an Autobot strike team, who quickly destroyed their laboriously assembled drill. Seeking revenge, Blot and the others chased their foes back to [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]], only to end up passing through a [[trans-time dimensional portal]] and getting caught up in fighting for the fate of the universe. It seems the former 21st century Decepticon leader Galvatron had been active in the 20th century for too long, causing a timestorm which threatened both ends of the timeline, at [[1989]] and 2009.

Soundwave ostensibly agreed to help their 20th century counterparts, but in reality kept Blot and the other Terrorcons in reserve, hoping the other various factions present would do the heavy lifting for them. In the end, Soundwave and the 2009 Terrorcons chose the better part of valor and fled back to their home time rather than face the fighting mad Galvatron. {{storylink|Time Wars}}

====''Classics''====
{{noteclassics}}
Hun-Grrr was framed by the [[Seacon (G1)|Seacon]]s as a traitor in the Decepticon ranks. When Bludgeon and the Seacons confronted him about it, the Terrorcon leader summoned Blot and the others to form Abominus and defend his name. Ultimately, though, Abominus fell in battle with [[Piranacon (G1)|Piranacon]]. {{storylink|At Fight's End}}

====''Regeneration One''====
{{NoteRG1}}
By [[2012]] Blot had been partially revived and pressed into service as part of [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]'s lobotomised [[zombie]] army. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 4}} When the [[Autobot]]s arrived from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to confront Megatron, Blot was shot down by [[Hound (G1)|Hound]]. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 5}}

====''Transformers '84''====
Following the departure of the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] and ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'' from Cybertron, Blot fell in amongst Lord [[Straxus (G1)|Straxus]]'s troops and helped him carve out his own Decepticon empire by attempting to purge every surviving Autobot on the planet. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 3|Secrets & Lies #3}} When Straxus later planned to reactivate [[Project Dreadnought]], he sent [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] to defend the [[Planetary engine|planetary turbines]]' control hub in [[Stanix]], where the [[combiner]] encountered [[Punch (G1)|Punch]] and the [[Wreckers]]. After a blow from [[Rack'n'Ruin (G1)|Rack'n'Ruin]]'s [[Hammer (weapon)|hammer]] brought Abominus crashing down, Blot and the other Terrorcons separated to battle the Wreckers individually but the Autobots disengaged and retreated as the explosives they had already laid inside the base detonated. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 4|Secrets & Lies #4}}

===Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''The Transformers'' cartoon====
{{voiceactor|[[Tony St. James]] (English), [[Ken Yamaguchi]] (Japanese)}}
[[File:Money-is-everything-terrorcons-robotmode.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.1|Don't kick [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]] in the head]]
Blot's first appearance was with his fellow Terrorcons inside [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]]'s head. [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] used them to blast into Unicron so he could retrieve more [[anti-electron]]s for an attack against the Autobots. Blot and the others did a decent job in keeping the Autobots at bay, but were quickly forced into retreating when [[Grimlock (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Grimlock]] finished building the Technobots and gave them the ability to merge into Computron. {{storylink|Grimlock's New Brain}}

[[File:MoneyIsEverything CutthroatBlot.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Unused animation from ''Fantasia''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s "Dance of the Hours".]]
Later, the Terrorcons were seen under the service of the [[Quintesson]]s. [[Dirk Manus]] had sold the Quintessons a [[Recreator|Molecular Disassembler/Reassembler]]. Eager to test the device, they had Blot act as the volunteer. The test proved that the device not only disassembled and reassembled matter like the name implied, but also cured whatever it had been used on of all broken parts, maladies, and other flaws. Cured of his imperfections, Blot felt sick.

[[File:Terrorconfight.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|So a landfill, a cannibal, and a sadist walk into a bar...]]
When Dirk and his Technobot escorts were on their way through space, Abominus swooped down and attacked, shooting them from the sky. The [[automatic timer]] in Abominus, placed within by the Quintessons, forced Abominus to separate into his Terrorcon components. The team was upset they couldn't finish the task of destroying the Autobots, though Blot and the team did get a second chance at going against Computron later. {{storylink|Money Is Everything (episode)|Money Is Everything}}

Blot was one of the [[Primitive]]s summoned to fight [[Tornedron]]. Blot joined the other Terrorcons in a last-ditch stand against the energy creature, but the group was surrounded and drained of their energy. They, like the rest of Tornedron's victims, were restored thanks to Grimlock's actions.
{{storylink|Call of the Primitives}}

Blot, along with the rest of the Terrorcons, stole [[Impervious alloy|heat-resistant alloy]] from the [[Mark Morgan|Morgan]]/[[Gregory Swofford|Swofford]] lab. {{storylink|The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1}}

In [[2007]], Blot participated in an attack on [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]] in order to draw the Autobots' attention while [[Wingspan]] and [[Pounce]] stole the [[Key to the Plasma Energy Chamber|Key]] to the [[Plasma Energy Chamber]].{{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 1}} He later took part in the battle on Cybertron, assualting the Autobots' postions. {{storylink|The Rebirth, Part 3}}

====Japanese cartoon continuity====
=====''The Headmasters'' cartoon=====
In [[2011]], Blot and the Terrorcons journeyed to Cybertron over the long-abandoned Decepticon [[space bridge|Space Bridge]]. They were part of the first wave of Galvatron's siege, hoping to gain control of [[Vector Sigma]]. Blot's team combined into Abominus to battle [[Superion (G1)|Superion]]. {{storylink|Four Warriors Come out of the Sky}} Later on, Abominus teamed up with his fellow combiners to wage war on their Autobot counterparts. Their victory seemed assured until the [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Battleship Maximus]] swooped in and scattered the Decepticon combiners. They barely survived the encounter. {{storylink|The Mystery of Planet Master}} On Earth, Blot and the Terrorcons intervened on [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]]'s search for the [[Matrix of Leadership]]. [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] and the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] kept the Terrorcons busy so that Hot Rod could complete his mission. Even after the Terrorcons formed Abominus, the Headmasters stood against them, and the arrival of Computron swung the odds firmly on the Autobots' side. Abominus was last seen with his head buried in the sand, being kicked in the side by Computron. {{storylink|Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime}}

When Galvatron launched a [[Metamorphose|metal-warping meteorite]] at the Autobots on [[Athenia]], he brought along Blot and the Terrorcons to occupy the Autobot forces. Linking up as Abominus, they once again battled Computron and the Headmasters. {{storylink|Approach of the Demon Meteorite}}

[[File:Hm14 Blot Gun.jpg|thumb|200px|Get out of my swamp!]]
[[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] devised a scheme to harvest [[plasma energy]] from the planet [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] by setting off a series of explosives that would utterly destroy the planet, releasing its stored energies. Blot and the Terrorcons were responsible for planting the bombs. Hun-Gurrr was spotted by [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]], [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]], and [[Shouki]] of the Trainbots, but the other Terrorcons managed to take them hostage. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! Maximus Is in Danger}} Blot and the Terrorcons managed to get two of the three sites set before being set upon by [[Raiden]] and the Headmasters. By forming Abominus, Blot's team held their own until Scorponok arrived with his mighty [[Transtector]], MegaZarak. The giant scorpion occupied the Autobots long enough for the Terrorcons to finish their work, and Mars was consumed by the resultant atomic inferno. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! MegaZarak Appears}}

Soon after, Blot and the Terrorcons joined Sixshot the returning Galvatron on an energy raid. They sought to prevent the Autobots from re-energizing the distant world of [[Sandra (planet)|Sandra]], and steal the energy for themselves. Blot's team formed Abominus for yet another in a series of battles against Computron. {{storylink|SOS from Planet Sandra}}

[[File:IRMLFE Decepticon cheer.jpg|thumb|200px|left]]
After an extended mission in space, Blot returned with Galvatron and the other Decepticons, setting up shop on Earth under Sixshot's command. He joined an enormous offensive against the Autobots' facility in [[Florida|Miami]], drawing out the troops from Autobot City so that Sixshot could kill [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. Body-slamming Computron as Abominus was just icing on the cake. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus Dies!!}} The warfare on Earth continued, as Blot and the Terrorcons assembled as Abominus in part of a five-fold simultaneous strike on Autobot interests engineered by Sixshot. {{storylink|The Emperor of Destruction Vanishes on an Iceberg}} As Scorponok assumed control of the Decepticons again, Blot was seen at a rally being held in his honor on Chaar. Blot and the Terrorcons later joined a Decepticon strike on the [[Kamchatka Peninsula]], seeking to gain control of the [[Pacific Ring of Fire]]. {{storylink|I Risk My Life for Earth}}

As Scorponok abandoned Earth in favor of conquering [[Master (planet)|Master]], Blot was one of his many troops seen attacking the planet's fortifications. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)}} As part of Abominus, Blot participated in the final battle with the Autobots at the North Pole. He escaped into space with the rest of Scorponok's Decepticons. {{storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)}}

Seeking to create a [[Decepticon Zone]] to counter the [[Micro|Autobot Zone]], [[Emperor of Destruction|Decepticon Emperor]] [[Violengiguar]] gathered together the [[Nine Great Demon Generals]], upgrading them with powerful new armor and weaponry, then sent them forth to conquer planets. Blot was one of those summoned, but only as a part of [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]]. {{storylink|Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Zone (story page)|Zone Part 1}} {{storylink|Fight!

=====''Generations Selects Special Comic''=====
[[File:Blot_Selects.jpg|thumb|170px|Blot's audition for the role of Purplesaurus Rex went poorly.]]
Blot and his colleagues were sent by the [[Quintesson]]s to help the humans in their conflict against the [[Selector]]s, [[Autobot]]s, and [[Decepticon]]s. {{storylink|Volcanicus comic 2}} Due to Blot's newly acquired possession of [[Angolmois Energy]], he began leaking [[anti-electron]] gas from his body. The dim-witted Terrorcon used his [[slime gun]] to fire anti-electron imbued oil at [[Orthia]], forcing the all-female combiner to split up into her individual components. Blot was later seen having a wrestling match with fellow Terrorcon [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]], and also participated in the counter-strike on [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]] at [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]]'s command.

Blot expressed shock when Megatron absorbed his Angolmois Energy, but later received the upper hand when Hun-Gurrr received the [[Terrorbreaster]] deployed by his Quintesson masters, allowing the Terrorcons to combine into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]]. However, Megatron evolved into Megatron Omega from his stockpiled Angolmois Energy and briefly attacked the brutish combiner. Abominus shot a hole in his former ally's chest and left him for dead, {{Storylink|Abominus comic 1}} but Megatron Omega ultimately survived the attack.

Blot was present as part of Abominus during his attack on [[Neo Scramble City]], and was temporarily left out of the combiner when Hun-Gurrr and [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]] assimilated [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] and [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]]'s limbs to become [[Abomenaticus]]. Blot later recombined with Hun-Gurrr upon Abomenaticus's reconfiguration into Abominus to fight Megatron Omega. Following Abominus's failure to defeat Megatron and alliance with [[Volcanicus (POTP)|Volcanicus]], the Terrorcons entered a portal with the Dinobot combiner {{Storylink|Abominus comic 2}} to the [[Blue Planet (GS)|Blue Planet]] and split up into their individual forms. Blot was present on the planet's surface when Hun-Gurrr assisted Volcanicus in his fight against [[Primacron]]. {{storylink|Generations Selects Special Comic Finale Part 2|Finale 2}}

====''The Great Transformer War''====
Blot and the Terrorcons were defeated in battle as Abominus by Computron. They switched tactics and split into their individual modes to spray Computron with "[[Cohesive Control Liquid]]", forcing him onto the Decepticon side. The Technobots were eventually freed when Spike Witwicky blasted them with a counter-spray. The now clear-minded Computron then proceeded to crush the individual Terrorcons. {{storylink|The Great Transformer War issue 2|The Great Transformer War #2}}

===''Transformers in 3-D''===
The Terrorcons and [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] intercepted [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]]'s team during the search for [[Metascan Alpha]]. The Terrorcons united into Abominus, but the Autobots ignored them and continued with their mission. A short time later, Abominus came under attack from the [[Destructon]]s and was blasted apart. The Terrorcons began a retreat and found themselves being aided by Ultra Magnus, resulting in Cyclonus agreeing to a truce between the two factions. {{storylink|The War Against the Destructons, Chapter 1 of 3}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
:*''First Appearance:'' [[Spotlight: Sixshot]]

[[File:MegatronOrigin4 BlotFights.jpg|upright=0.95|thumb|right|Suspect is considered armed and extremely smelly.]]
Blot was one of the earlier warriors seen in the [[Gladiatorial combat|bloodsport tournaments]] on [[Kaon (polity)|Kaon]], part of [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]]'s team as the future [[Decepticon leader]] rose in prominence. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 2|Megatron Origin #2}} He remained part of the movement when the pit-fighting broke out into active terrorism, and was seen dismembering security officers with his extra arms just before [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]] returned with his [[Apex Armor (G1)|Apex Armor]]. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 4|Megatron Origin #4}}

During [[Zeta Prime (G1)|Zeta Prime]]'s era, Blot frequented [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]]'s bar and threw a glass at [[Jetfire (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Jetfire]] when the scientist entered the joint. {{storylink|What It's Really Like}} When Megatron was defeated at the hands of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]], [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]] disapproved and had him exiled to [[Junkion (planet)|Junkion]]. Blot and the Terrorcons also disapproved, but thought his choice of punishment was lame and set out to get rid of their old leader permanently. {{storylink|Wreckage (issue)|Wreckage}} Unfortunately, they turned out to have vastly underestimated Megatron's power and found themselves easily dispatched, after which they were quick to re-pledge their allegiance to him. {{storylink|Prey (issue)|Prey}} After returning to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and taking back control of the Decepticons, Megatron punished Scorponok by having Blot and the Terrorcons tear him apart. {{storylink|The Illusion of Control}}

[[File:Blot and Triggerhappy The End of the Beginning of the World.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|left|Well, so much for there being an IDW appearance of Abominus.]]
As the war went on, the Terrorcons became major fanboys of [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]]. They were deployed to [[Mumu-Obscura]], but were taken prisoner by the [[Reaper]]s to lure Sixshot to the planet. The Reapers offered membership to their little club so long as Sixshot destroyed the Terrorcons, to which Blot offered no reaction whatsoever, nor did he react when Sixshot appeared to take the Reapers up on their offer. After Sixshot declined the invitation, the Reapers allowed the Decepticons to leave in peace. {{storylink|Spotlight: Sixshot}}

Blot later returned to Cybertron, where he was part of an angry Decepticon crowd who demanded answers from the [[Autobot]]s for [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]]'s death. {{storylink|Stick Together}} He joined up with [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Shockwave]], who was trying to lead the Decepticons back into war, only to be taken out by [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]] while guarding their base. {{storylink|The End of the Beginning of the World}}

Blot possesses the ability to place an explosive decoy of himself on the battlefield, dealing 169 damage at level 10. His ability costs 5 ability points with a +3 cost increase. {{storylink|Transformers: Earth Wars}}

**''Accessories:'' [[slime gun]], laser mount
:''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Blot transforms into a navy blue and lavender monster. What sort of monster is a hard thing to determine, as the details molded into him don't particularly point to any one creature. His shoulder span and long arms indicate something ape-like, while his pointed nose and sloped head give him a mole-like appearance. Pretty much, if you say Blot looks like something (say, a giant ambulatory nose), he has a decent chance of actually looking like it. However, his [[Blot (SG)|''Shattered Glass'' counterpart]]'s bio states that it is an ogre.

:Blot's monster mode is nicely poseable for the time, having hinge elbows and full swivel shoulders and hips. His head can also rise up a bit, but due to his unpainted eyes, the effect is negligible. In robot mode, his articulation is reduced to just a single joint per arm. His box art shows these to be his elbows, but from looking at just the toy, they could be his shoulders. Due to his broad monster mode width, Blot's small, square-peg head conspires against him and makes him look immensely out of proportion. Blot's monster arms are supposed to store on his back in robot mode, but they can also be flipped up over his head to be less [[kibble]]-worthy.<ref>https://www.seibertron.com/transformers-toys/view/g1-1987/blot/2952/1/63/</ref>

:He can form the leg or arm of any [[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]-style combiner, though he is nominally Abominus's right arm. His usefulness as a leg is highly questionable, as his extraordinary width tends to push against whoever is positioned opposite him. Even his arm mode is far from ideal, as his beast mode legs project so far out that even Abominus' specially-shaped gun only barely clears them. He can also attach to Metroplex's robot mode.

:There is a variant of Blot which does not have the [[rubsign]] indent.

His [[robot mode]] hands can hold the weapon via the latter's multiple [[C joint|3mm post]]s, and he and the weapon feature numerous 3mm mounting points.

:Though not called out in the [[instructions]], Blight combines with ''Cyberverse'' [[Twinstrike (Prime)#Toys|Twinstrike]], [[Hun-Gurrr (Prime)#Toys|Hun-Gurrr]], [[Windrazor (Prime)#Toys|Windrazor]], and [[Rippersnapper (Prime)#Toys|Predacon Rippersnapper]], to form [[Abominus (Prime)#Toys|Abominus]], with Blight forming the left leg.

:His hammer accessory was also used, in varying colors, by Twinstrike, [[Prowl (WFC)#Cyberverse|Prowl]], and [[Rot Gut (Prime)|Rot Gut]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''PP-23'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[August 25]], 2018'''
**''Accessories'': Gun, Prime Armor/combiner hand, Prime Master gap filler/gun

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' "Terrorcon Blot" is a heavy retool of [[Rippersnapper (G1)#Generations|Terrorcon Rippersnapper]] that transforms into an ogre-like creature based on his original toy. Blot can also change into a limb for any ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style Combiner (or into one of [[Godbomber#Legends|''Legends'' Godbomber]]'s legs), although he is meant to combine with [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)#Generations|Hun-Gurrr]] to form [[Abominus (G1)#Generations|Abominus]]. Like all ''Power of the Primes'' Deluxe Class figures, he comes with Prime Armor with a spot for [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]s (and by extension, [[Titan Master#Toys|Titan Master]]s, [[Enigma of Combination#Generations|Enigmas of Combination]], or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix cores]]) and can form a Combiner hand. He includes a piece that can fill the gap in the armor or be held as a gun.

:Blot's gun has a relatively short 5 mm peg. Combined with the claws that stick up above his hands, this means that he has trouble holding it securely. Blot also features an additional piece of plastic attached to the swivel that manages his ogre mode head and top, primarily used to mount weapons in ogre mode, though with the exception of his leg mode this part conspicuously sticks out of every one of his modes with no proper means of collapsing it.

:Despite being a retool of Rippersnapper, Blot thankfully did not inherit the Combiner peghole problem, as his is molded in much thicker plastic.

:Blot was retooled further into ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' [[Lobclaw#Generations|Lobclaw]] and [[Gulf#Generations|Gulf]]. The original mold was also differently retooled into [[Overbite (Masterforce)#Generations|Overbite]].

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' "Butto" is a cartoon-accurate redeco of his ''Power of the Primes'' release. He features a lighter shade of purple plastic, and numerous different paint applications, mostly consisting of removing the silver paint on his chest and legs and adding red accents on his "nipples". Minor deco changes include two Decepticon insignias on his shoulders, silver spots on the sides of his stomach, as well as blue accents on his knees and crotch.

:Originally slated for release on [[March 27]], Butto's release was pushed back to April 17.

==Notes==
*In the 2010s, Hasbro lead designer [[John Warden]] asked TakaraTomy staff on behalf of all us fans what Blot's alt-mode is supposed to be. The answer they gave was ogre. Your mileage may vary.<ref>[https://twitter.com/tfwiki/status/916108775790137344 NYCC 2017 comment observed by [[Matthew Karpowich]]; tweet by @tfwiki, 5 October 2017]</ref>
*In the 2005 IDW Continuity, Blot may or may not be alive following Arcee's attack. It all depends on how snarkily you wish to interpret John Barber's tweets. However, seeing as he never makes another appearance, things aren't looking too good for ol' Blot.<ref>https://twitter.com/TheJohnBarber/status/282262789031075840 Tweet by [[John Barber]], 2012/12/21: "I think Blip would be really ticked off if I killed his brother."</ref>

===Foreign names===
*''Japanese:'' '''Butto''' (ブット),<ref>While usually written "Butt", Blot's Japanese name is in fact rather difficult to transliterate into English, being essentially "foot" with a "b" sound instead of an "f". In katakana, "butt" is usually rendered バット ''batto'', while "boot" is ブート ''būto''. It is likely that "butto" is a misspelling, intentional or otherwise, of "Blot" (ブロット ''Burotto'').</ref> '''Blot''' (ブロット ''Burotto'')
*''French:'' '''Extermino''' (Canada)

Blot (G1)

RipCliffjumper2018: Added Description for Blot's appearance in Call of the Primitives and added a caption. I plan to finish the rest of the stubs for his G1 appearance.

{{factions|decepticon|quintesson}}
{{disambigm|Blot (disambiguation)|Blight (disambiguation)}}
:''Blot is a [[Decepticon]] [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcon]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:G1Blot boxart.jpg|upright=2|thumb|Alright, I get the hint. Stop leaving scented bath soaps in my locker.]]
There's only one thing [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s both agree on with no war or argument, and it's this: '''Blot''' is the most vile and disgusting Transformer ever assembled. He oozes fluids of questionable nature from various joints on his frame, and has a rank odor that usually keeps foes and allies far away from him. Naturally, all this scorn and insult has given the less-than-smart Blot quite the inferiority complex. Stuck with a hygiene problem he can't control and a central processor a few hertz too slow, Blot is both unable to solve the problems of his own stench and talk back to the insulting comments from his peers. Brutish and slow-witted, Blot is the classic dumb bully to those who don't give him respect... although he's not sharp enough to tell when said respect is faked. He's immensely loyal to those who at the very least pretend he's worth something, and [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]] in particular is a Decepticon to whom he shows unwavering support.

The other [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]], on the other hand, tolerate Blot enough, but are apprehensive about combining into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] with him, as it takes far too long to remove the stench he's passed on to them after they're finished.

{{bigquote|I'm not as bad as I look—I'm worse.|Blot's [[bio]] quote actually sums him up.}}

==Fiction==
===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
[[File:Blotcomic.jpg|left|upright=0.85|thumb|Look! It's my magic nose goblin! He loves making humans go squish!]]
Blot served [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]] on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] with his fellow Terrorcons, until the disappearance of [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Fortress Maximus]], their greatest nemesis. After being alerted to the presence of Fortress Maximus and the Autobots on the distant planet [[Nebulos]], Blot and the Decepticons tracked down their quarry at the planet's capital city, [[Koraja]]. Unfortunately for the Decepticons, the newly minted Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] were more than tough enough to drive off the invaders. {{storylink|Broken Glass!}} The Decepticons were only temporarily deterred, however, and continued their reign of terror on Nebulos. Scorponok sent Blot and the Terrorcons, along with the [[Horrorcon (G1)|Horrorcons]], to attack the resort city of [[Splendora]]. When the Autobots arrived to defend the city, the Terrorcons merged to form [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]], but the united [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]] became [[Computron (G1)|Computron]], who used a combination of acid pellets and brute force to disassemble the robot and drive off the Decepticons. {{storylink|Love and Steel!}} Blot and the Terrorcons also joined Scorponok in an attack on the [[Nursery (Nebulos)|Nursery]], where they encountered another new kind of Autobot/Nebulon fusion: [[Targetmaster (technology)|Targetmasters]]. Blot held his own with the aid of his [[Slime gun|slimegun]], and the Autobots eventually realized that the battle was bringing ruin to the agricultural facility. They fled from Blot and the rest of the Decepticons to bring an end to the carnage. {{storylink|Brothers in Armor!!}}

[[File:DarkStar-BlotTracks.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Blot firmly believes the crotch is the funniest part of the body to acid-bathe.]]
The Decepticons eventually traveled to [[Earth]], and came into conflict with both Autobot and Decepticon alike. After a brief [[Decepticon Civil War]], the united forces of [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]] and Scorponok turned their rage on the Autobots under [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]]'s command. Blot gleefully joined in the battle, blasting the veteran Autobot [[Tracks (G1)|Tracks]] with his acid spray. All parties eventually joined forces, however, against the [[Underbase]]-enhanced might of [[Starscream (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Starscream]]. The Terrorcons attempted to confront Starscream in [[Buenos Aires]], [[Argentina]], but were annihilated with a single wave of his hand. {{storylink|Dark Star}}

=====Marvel UK future timelines=====
[[File:Blot headhunt.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.8|Death's Head then immediately regretted having direct physical contact with Blot.]]
[[File:Blot cutthroat time wars.jpg|thumb|upright=0.5]]
In [[2007]], Blot was sent to the freelance peacekeeping agent known as [[Death's Head (G1)|Death's Head]] as an emissary for the Decepticon army. Death's Head had sought a bounty against [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] months earlier, only to have the offerrer, [[Hot Rod (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Rodimus Prime]], interfere with the collection and rescind the offer. Blot proposed the mechanoid use Decepticon resources to enter Cybertron undetected and track Rodimus Prime's predicted movements to get his revenge. Death's Head was unconvinced by this appeal to his sense of pride, so then Blot appealed to his wallet and instantly the mech was interested in the deal. {{storylink|Headhunt}}

Frothing at the mouth (and the neck, and the ankle joints, and...), Blot enjoyed terrorizing the human population on [[2009]] while on his way to the latest [[energon]] extraction site the Decepticons had rigged up. Unfortunately for them, [[Soundwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Soundwave]] and the Terrorcons proved incapable of fending off an Autobot strike team, who quickly destroyed their laboriously assembled drill. Seeking revenge, Blot and the others chased their foes back to [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]], only to end up passing through a [[trans-time dimensional portal]] and getting caught up in fighting for the fate of the universe. It seems the former 21st century Decepticon leader Galvatron had been active in the 20th century for too long, causing a timestorm which threatened both ends of the timeline, at [[1989]] and 2009.

Soundwave ostensibly agreed to help their 20th century counterparts, but in reality kept Blot and the other Terrorcons in reserve, hoping the other various factions present would do the heavy lifting for them. In the end, Soundwave and the 2009 Terrorcons chose the better part of valor and fled back to their home time rather than face the fighting mad Galvatron. {{storylink|Time Wars}}

====''Classics''====
{{noteclassics}}
Hun-Grrr was framed by the [[Seacon (G1)|Seacon]]s as a traitor in the Decepticon ranks. When Bludgeon and the Seacons confronted him about it, the Terrorcon leader summoned Blot and the others to form Abominus and defend his name. Ultimately, though, Abominus fell in battle with [[Piranacon (G1)|Piranacon]]. {{storylink|At Fight's End}}

====''Regeneration One''====
{{NoteRG1}}
By [[2012]] Blot had been partially revived and pressed into service as part of [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]'s lobotomised [[zombie]] army. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 4}} When the [[Autobot]]s arrived from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] to confront Megatron, Blot was shot down by [[Hound (G1)|Hound]]. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 5}}

====''Transformers '84''====
Following the departure of the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] and ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'' from Cybertron, Blot fell in amongst Lord [[Straxus (G1)|Straxus]]'s troops and helped him carve out his own Decepticon empire by attempting to purge every surviving Autobot on the planet. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 3|Secrets & Lies #3}} When Straxus later planned to reactivate [[Project Dreadnought]], he sent [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]] to defend the [[Planetary engine|planetary turbines]]' control hub in [[Stanix]], where the [[combiner]] encountered [[Punch (G1)|Punch]] and the [[Wreckers]]. After a blow from [[Rack'n'Ruin (G1)|Rack'n'Ruin]]'s [[Hammer (weapon)|hammer]] brought Abominus crashing down, Blot and the other Terrorcons separated to battle the Wreckers individually but the Autobots disengaged and retreated as the explosives they had already laid inside the base detonated. {{storylink|Secrets & Lies issue 4|Secrets & Lies #4}}

Blot's first appearance was with his fellow Terrorcons inside [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]]'s head. [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] used them to blast into Unicron so he could retrieve more [[anti-electron]]s for an attack against the Autobots. Blot and the others did a decent job in keeping the Autobots at bay, but were quickly forced into retreating when [[Grimlock (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Grimlock]] finished building the Technobots and gave them the ability to merge into Computron. {{storylink|Grimlock's New Brain}}

[[File:MoneyIsEverything CutthroatBlot.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Unused animation from ''Fantasia''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s "Dance of the Hours".]]
Later, the Terrorcons were seen under the service of the [[Quintesson]]s. [[Dirk Manus]] had sold the Quintessons a [[Recreator|Molecular Disassembler/Reassembler]]. Eager to test the device, they had Blot act as the volunteer. The test proved that the device not only disassembled and reassembled matter like the name implied, but also cured whatever it had been used on of all broken parts, maladies, and other flaws. Cured of his imperfections, Blot felt sick.

[[File:Terrorconfight.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|So a landfill, a cannibal, and a sadist walk into a bar...]]
When Dirk and his Technobot escorts were on their way through space, Abominus swooped down and attacked, shooting them from the sky. The [[automatic timer]] in Abominus, placed within by the Quintessons, forced Abominus to separate into his Terrorcon components. The team was upset they couldn't finish the task of destroying the Autobots, though Blot and the team did get a second chance at going against Computron later. {{storylink|Money Is Everything (episode)|Money Is Everything}}

Blot was one of the [[Primitive]]s summoned to fight [[Tornedron]]. Blot joined the other Terrorcons in a last-ditch stand against the energy creature, but the group was surrounded and drained of their energy. They, like the rest of Tornedron's victims, were restored thanks to Grimlock's actions.
{{storylink|Call of the Primitives}}

Blot, along with the rest of the Terrorcons, stole [[Impervious alloy|heat-resistant alloy]] from the [[Mark Morgan|Morgan]]/[[Gregory Swofford|Swofford]] lab. {{storylink|The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1}}

====Japanese cartoon continuity====
=====''The Headmasters'' cartoon=====
In [[2011]], Blot and the Terrorcons journeyed to Cybertron over the long-abandoned Decepticon [[space bridge|Space Bridge]]. They were part of the first wave of Galvatron's siege, hoping to gain control of [[Vector Sigma]]. Blot's team combined into Abominus to battle [[Superion (G1)|Superion]]. {{storylink|Four Warriors Come out of the Sky}} Later on, Abominus teamed up with his fellow combiners to wage war on their Autobot counterparts. Their victory seemed assured until the [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Battleship Maximus]] swooped in and scattered the Decepticon combiners. They barely survived the encounter. {{storylink|The Mystery of Planet Master}} On Earth, Blot and the Terrorcons intervened on [[Hot Rod (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Hot Rod]]'s search for the [[Matrix of Leadership]]. [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] and the Autobot [[Headmaster (technology)|Headmasters]] kept the Terrorcons busy so that Hot Rod could complete his mission. Even after the Terrorcons formed Abominus, the Headmasters stood against them, and the arrival of Computron swung the odds firmly on the Autobots' side. Abominus was last seen with his head buried in the sand, being kicked in the side by Computron. {{storylink|Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime}}

When Galvatron launched a [[Metamorphose|metal-warping meteorite]] at the Autobots on [[Athenia]], he brought along Blot and the Terrorcons to occupy the Autobot forces. Linking up as Abominus, they once again battled Computron and the Headmasters. {{storylink|Approach of the Demon Meteorite}}

[[File:Hm14 Blot Gun.jpg|thumb|200px|Get out of my swamp!]]
[[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] devised a scheme to harvest [[plasma energy]] from the planet [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] by setting off a series of explosives that would utterly destroy the planet, releasing its stored energies. Blot and the Terrorcons were responsible for planting the bombs. Hun-Gurrr was spotted by [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]], [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]], and [[Shouki]] of the Trainbots, but the other Terrorcons managed to take them hostage. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! Maximus Is in Danger}} Blot and the Terrorcons managed to get two of the three sites set before being set upon by [[Raiden]] and the Headmasters. By forming Abominus, Blot's team held their own until Scorponok arrived with his mighty [[Transtector]], MegaZarak. The giant scorpion occupied the Autobots long enough for the Terrorcons to finish their work, and Mars was consumed by the resultant atomic inferno. {{storylink|Explosion on Mars!! MegaZarak Appears}}

Soon after, Blot and the Terrorcons joined Sixshot the returning Galvatron on an energy raid. They sought to prevent the Autobots from re-energizing the distant world of [[Sandra (planet)|Sandra]], and steal the energy for themselves. Blot's team formed Abominus for yet another in a series of battles against Computron. {{storylink|SOS from Planet Sandra}}

[[File:IRMLFE Decepticon cheer.jpg|thumb|200px|left]]
After an extended mission in space, Blot returned with Galvatron and the other Decepticons, setting up shop on Earth under Sixshot's command. He joined an enormous offensive against the Autobots' facility in [[Florida|Miami]], drawing out the troops from Autobot City so that Sixshot could kill [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]]. Body-slamming Computron as Abominus was just icing on the cake. {{storylink|Ultra Magnus Dies!!}} The warfare on Earth continued, as Blot and the Terrorcons assembled as Abominus in part of a five-fold simultaneous strike on Autobot interests engineered by Sixshot. {{storylink|The Emperor of Destruction Vanishes on an Iceberg}} As Scorponok assumed control of the Decepticons again, Blot was seen at a rally being held in his honor on Chaar. Blot and the Terrorcons later joined a Decepticon strike on the [[Kamchatka Peninsula]], seeking to gain control of the [[Pacific Ring of Fire]]. {{storylink|I Risk My Life for Earth}}

As Scorponok abandoned Earth in favor of conquering [[Master (planet)|Master]], Blot was one of his many troops seen attacking the planet's fortifications. {{storylink|Miraculous Warriors, Targetmasters (Part 2)}} As part of Abominus, Blot participated in the final battle with the Autobots at the North Pole. He escaped into space with the rest of Scorponok's Decepticons. {{storylink|The Final Showdown on Earth (Part 2)}}

=====''Generations Selects Special Comic''=====
[[File:Blot_Selects.jpg|thumb|170px|Blot's audition for the role of Purplesaurus Rex went poorly.]]
Blot and his colleagues were sent by the [[Quintesson]]s to help the humans in their conflict against the [[Selector]]s, [[Autobot]]s, and [[Decepticon]]s. {{storylink|Volcanicus comic 2}} Due to Blot's newly acquired possession of [[Angolmois Energy]], he began leaking [[anti-electron]] gas from his body. The dim-witted Terrorcon used his [[slime gun]] to fire anti-electron imbued oil at [[Orthia]], forcing the all-female combiner to split up into her individual components. Blot was later seen having a wrestling match with fellow Terrorcon [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]], and also participated in the counter-strike on [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]] at [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)|Hun-Gurrr]]'s command.

Blot expressed shock when Megatron absorbed his Angolmois Energy, but later received the upper hand when Hun-Gurrr received the [[Terrorbreaster]] deployed by his Quintesson masters, allowing the Terrorcons to combine into [[Abominus (G1)|Abominus]]. However, Megatron evolved into Megatron Omega from his stockpiled Angolmois Energy and briefly attacked the brutish combiner. Abominus shot a hole in his former ally's chest and left him for dead, {{Storylink|Abominus comic 1}} but Megatron Omega ultimately survived the attack.

Blot was present as part of Abominus during his attack on [[Neo Scramble City]], and was temporarily left out of the combiner when Hun-Gurrr and [[Cutthroat (G1)|Cutthroat]] assimilated [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] and [[Bruticus (G1)|Bruticus]]'s limbs to become [[Abomenaticus]]. Blot later recombined with Hun-Gurrr upon Abomenaticus's reconfiguration into Abominus to fight Megatron Omega. Following Abominus's failure to defeat Megatron and alliance with [[Volcanicus (POTP)|Volcanicus]], the Terrorcons entered a portal with the Dinobot combiner {{Storylink|Abominus comic 2}} to the [[Blue Planet (GS)|Blue Planet]] and split up into their individual forms. Blot was present on the planet's surface when Hun-Gurrr assisted Volcanicus in his fight against [[Primacron]]. {{storylink|Generations Selects Special Comic Finale Part 2|Finale 2}}

====''The Great Transformer War''====
Blot and the Terrorcons were defeated in battle as Abominus by Computron. They switched tactics and split into their individual modes to spray Computron with "[[Cohesive Control Liquid]]", forcing him onto the Decepticon side. The Technobots were eventually freed when Spike Witwicky blasted them with a counter-spray. The now clear-minded Computron then proceeded to crush the individual Terrorcons. {{storylink|The Great Transformer War issue 2|The Great Transformer War #2}}

===''Transformers in 3-D''===
The Terrorcons and [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] intercepted [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]]'s team during the search for [[Metascan Alpha]]. The Terrorcons united into Abominus, but the Autobots ignored them and continued with their mission. A short time later, Abominus came under attack from the [[Destructon]]s and was blasted apart. The Terrorcons began a retreat and found themselves being aided by Ultra Magnus, resulting in Cyclonus agreeing to a truce between the two factions. {{storylink|The War Against the Destructons, Chapter 1 of 3}}

During [[Zeta Prime (G1)|Zeta Prime]]'s era, Blot frequented [[Gutcruncher (G1)|Gutcruncher]]'s bar and threw a glass at [[Jetfire (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Jetfire]] when the scientist entered the joint. {{storylink|What It's Really Like}} When Megatron was defeated at the hands of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]], [[Scorponok (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Scorponok]] disapproved and had him exiled to [[Junkion (planet)|Junkion]]. Blot and the Terrorcons also disapproved, but thought his choice of punishment was lame and set out to get rid of their old leader permanently. {{storylink|Wreckage (issue)|Wreckage}} Unfortunately, they turned out to have vastly underestimated Megatron's power and found themselves easily dispatched, after which they were quick to re-pledge their allegiance to him. {{storylink|Prey (issue)|Prey}} After returning to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and taking back control of the Decepticons, Megatron punished Scorponok by having Blot and the Terrorcons tear him apart. {{storylink|The Illusion of Control}}

[[File:Blot and Triggerhappy The End of the Beginning of the World.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|left|Well, so much for there being an IDW appearance of Abominus.]]
As the war went on, the Terrorcons became major fanboys of [[Sixshot (G1)|Sixshot]]. They were deployed to [[Mumu-Obscura]], but were taken prisoner by the [[Reaper]]s to lure Sixshot to the planet. The Reapers offered membership to their little club so long as Sixshot destroyed the Terrorcons, to which Blot offered no reaction whatsoever, nor did he react when Sixshot appeared to take the Reapers up on their offer. After Sixshot declined the invitation, the Reapers allowed the Decepticons to leave in peace. {{storylink|Spotlight: Sixshot}}

Blot later returned to Cybertron, where he was part of an angry Decepticon crowd who demanded answers from the [[Autobot]]s for [[Ratbat (G1)|Ratbat]]'s death. {{storylink|Stick Together}} He joined up with [[Shockwave (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Shockwave]], who was trying to lead the Decepticons back into war, only to be taken out by [[Arcee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Arcee]] while guarding their base. {{storylink|The End of the Beginning of the World}}

*'''Blot''' ([[1987]])
**''Team ID number:'' '''TR4'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''D-83'''
**''Accessories:'' [[slime gun]], laser mount
:''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Blot transforms into a navy blue and lavender monster. What sort of monster is a hard thing to determine, as the details molded into him don't particularly point to any one creature. His shoulder span and long arms indicate something ape-like, while his pointed nose and sloped head give him a mole-like appearance. Pretty much, if you say Blot looks like something (say, a giant ambulatory nose), he has a decent chance of actually looking like it. However, his [[Blot (SG)|''Shattered Glass'' counterpart]]'s bio states that it is an ogre.

:Blot's monster mode is nicely poseable for the time, having hinge elbows and full swivel shoulders and hips. His head can also rise up a bit, but due to his unpainted eyes, the effect is negligible. In robot mode, his articulation is reduced to just a single joint per arm. His box art shows these to be his elbows, but from looking at just the toy, they could be his shoulders. Due to his broad monster mode width, Blot's small, square-peg head conspires against him and makes him look immensely out of proportion. Blot's monster arms are supposed to store on his back in robot mode, but they can also be flipped up over his head to be less [[kibble]]-worthy.<ref>https://www.seibertron.com/transformers-toys/view/g1-1987/blot/2952/1/63/</ref>

:He can form the leg or arm of any [[Scramble City (toyline)|Scramble City]]-style combiner, though he is nominally Abominus's right arm. His usefulness as a leg is highly questionable, as his extraordinary width tends to push against whoever is positioned opposite him. Even his arm mode is far from ideal, as his beast mode legs project so far out that even Abominus' specially-shaped gun only barely clears them. He can also attach to Metroplex's robot mode.

:There is a variant of Blot which does not have the [[rubsign]] indent.

**''Series / Number:'' '''3 / 010'''
**''Accessories'': Affliction Hammer
{{note|''Prime'' [[Blight (Prime)#Toys|Blight]] was [[Repurposing|repurposed]] as the original Blot/Blight in the ''Legends'' game event "[[Unleash the Beasts]]".}}
: Part of the third wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#BH|Prime: Beast Hunters]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 3|Series 3 ''Cyberverse'']] Legion Class toys, Blight transforms into a bipedal dragon. His [[robot mode]] hands can hold the weapon via the latter's multiple [[C joint|3mm post]]s, and he and the weapon feature numerous 3mm mounting points.

:Though not called out in the [[instructions]], Blight combines with ''Cyberverse'' [[Twinstrike (Prime)#Toys|Twinstrike]], [[Hun-Gurrr (Prime)#Toys|Hun-Gurrr]], [[Windrazor (Prime)#Toys|Windrazor]], and [[Rippersnapper (Prime)#Toys|Predacon Rippersnapper]], to form [[Abominus (Prime)#Toys|Abominus]], with Blight forming the left leg.

:His hammer accessory was also used, in varying colors, by Twinstrike, [[Prowl (WFC)#Cyberverse|Prowl]], and [[Rot Gut (Prime)|Rot Gut]]. This toy was [[redeco]]ed into Rot Gut, ''[[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (toyline)|Go!]]'' [[Burara#Toys|Burara]], and [[Gorge#Toys|''The Last Knight'' Gorge]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''PP-23'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[August 25]], 2018'''
**''Accessories'': Gun, Prime Armor/combiner hand, Prime Master gap filler/gun

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' "Terrorcon Blot" is a heavy retool of [[Rippersnapper (G1)#Generations|Terrorcon Rippersnapper]] that transforms into an ogre-like creature based on his original toy. Blot can also change into a limb for any ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]''-style Combiner (or into one of [[Godbomber#Legends|''Legends'' Godbomber]]'s legs), although he is meant to combine with [[Hun-Gurrr (G1)#Generations|Hun-Gurrr]] to form [[Abominus (G1)#Generations|Abominus]]. Like all ''Power of the Primes'' Deluxe Class figures, he comes with Prime Armor with a spot for [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]s (and by extension, [[Titan Master#Toys|Titan Master]]s, [[Enigma of Combination#Generations|Enigmas of Combination]], or [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix cores]]) and can form a Combiner hand. He includes a piece that can fill the gap in the armor or be held as a gun.

:Blot's gun has a relatively short 5 mm peg. Combined with the claws that stick up above his hands, this means that he has trouble holding it securely. Blot also features an additional piece of plastic attached to the swivel that manages his ogre mode head and top, primarily used to mount weapons in ogre mode, though with the exception of his leg mode this part conspicuously sticks out of every one of his modes with no proper means of collapsing it.

:Despite being a retool of Rippersnapper, Blot thankfully did not inherit the Combiner peghole problem, as his is molded in much thicker plastic.

:Blot was retooled further into ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' [[Lobclaw#Generations|Lobclaw]] and [[Gulf#Generations|Gulf]]. The original mold was also differently retooled into [[Overbite (Masterforce)#Generations|Overbite]].

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' "Butto" is a cartoon-accurate redeco of his ''Power of the Primes'' release. He features a lighter shade of purple plastic, and numerous different paint applications, mostly consisting of removing the silver paint on his chest and legs and adding red accents on his "nipples". Minor deco changes include two Decepticon insignias on his shoulders, silver spots on the sides of his stomach, as well as blue accents on his knees and crotch.

:Originally slated for release on [[March 27]], Butto's release was pushed back to April 17.

==Notes==
*In the 2010s, Hasbro lead designer [[John Warden]] asked TakaraTomy staff on behalf of all us fans what Blot's alt-mode is supposed to be. The answer they gave was ogre. Your mileage may vary.<ref>[https://twitter.com/tfwiki/status/916108775790137344 NYCC 2017 comment observed by [[Matthew Karpowich]]; tweet by @tfwiki, 5 October 2017]</ref>
*In the 2005 IDW Continuity, Blot may or may not be alive following Arcee's attack. It all depends on how snarkily you wish to interpret John Barber's tweets. However, seeing as he never makes another appearance, things aren't looking too good for ol' Blot.<ref>https://twitter.com/TheJohnBarber/status/282262789031075840 Tweet by [[John Barber]], 2012/12/21: "I think Blip would be really ticked off if I killed his brother."</ref>

===Foreign names===
*''Japanese:'' '''Butto''' (ブット),<ref>While usually written "Butt", Blot's Japanese name is in fact rather difficult to transliterate into English, being essentially "foot" with a "b" sound instead of an "f". In katakana, "butt" is usually rendered バット ''batto'', while "boot" is ブート ''būto''. It is likely that "butto" is a misspelling, intentional or otherwise, of "Blot" (ブロット ''Burotto'').</ref> '''Blot''' (ブロット ''Burotto'')
*''French:'' '''Extermino''' (Canada)
*''Italian:'' '''Spectrobot'''
*''Mandarin:'' '''Wūdiǎn''' (China, 污点, "Stain"), '''Xuèwū Xióng''' (China, 血污熊, "Bloodstained Bear")
*''Russian:'' '''Blot''' (Блот)
