'''Spud Muffin''' is a really popular bot, bro. The "King of the [[Food court|Food Court]]" has been voted as Prom King and Deep Fryer Games MVP, amongst other things. He's quite proud of all of his achievements and often celebrates by going to the gym and doing some reps. He also despises the idea of being second place, and will use under-handed tactics to make sure he's number one.

One of the Hunger Hubs, Spud Muffin was the BFF of the gang's leader [[Burgertron]]... '''NOT'''. Actually a total faker, Spud Muffin despised his supposed bro, fuelled by resentment at being seen as a side-dish to Burgertron's main course, when fries were totally a main course of their own! This led Spud to decide his bro had to ''go'', and one night when the [[Greaser Gang|Hunger Hubs]] were playing vent-sliding, Spud sent Burgertron sliding off-course into a different vent. {{storylink|The Goldrush Games - Part the Second}} The next night, after rescuing Ulf the Orange from a bin after she wound up nearly being drunk by the [[Dave (BotBots)|flesh being]], Spud feigned ignorance as to his friend's whereabouts, Burgertron having wound up in the [[mall (BotBots)|mall]]'s [[Lost and Found (BotBots)|Lost and Found]] office. Spud's attempt at getting rid of Burgertron succeeded beyond his wildest dreams when, on the way back to the food court with the [[Lost Bots]], Burgertron broke ''The [[Sacred Rule of the Mall]]'' and revealed himself to the flesh creature. Spud therefore totally had ''no choice'' but to kick Burgertron out of the Hunger Hubs and become their new leader. {{storylink|Mall Than Meets the Eye}}

As part of the BotVids craze, Spud Muffin filmed a video for all his bros, bro-ettes and bro-dentities of him sofa-surfing. Later on, while he was minding his own business, he was struck by Kikmee. {{storylink|(Never) Be Yourself}}

With Burgertron gone, the Hunger Hubs revived his incredibly successful play ''I, Cheeseburger'' (now managed and directed by Spud Muffin, natch), having recast the title role. On opening night, a jealous Burgertron tried to storm the stage, nearly causing disaster. As Burgertron slunk away, he was confronted by an irate Spud Muffin, who admonished his bro for his uncool behavior. {{storylink|I, Cheeseburger (episode)|I, Cheeseburger}}

When the Lost Bots's popularity reached new lows as they became the hilariously ineffective "Crime Stoppers", Spud hit on a new plan to get rid of Burgertron; Setting up a pile of salty grease on a random banister in the mall, which a wandering [[Sprinkleberry D'uhnut|Sprinkleberry]] then slipped over, trapping him in the [[day-care area]]. Then Spud set up evidence, including a stray sesame seed and a doctored video showing a burger shoving a donut into the [[Dave's office|flesh creature's office]], so that it would look like Burgertron was responsible for Sprinkleberry being eaten alive. The [[Sugar Shocks]] demanded he be taken to Food Court Court, where a completely unbiased Spud Muffin served as prosecution for his bro. Despite his assurances he was just doing his job and there was totes nothing personal about what he was doing, Spud then proceeded to demonize his best friend as a complete psycho killer who wanted to waste every bot in the mall. However, before Burgertron could be sentenced to exile, [[Kikmee]] and [[Bonz-Eye]] appeared with a surprise witness: the very much alive Sprinkleberry! Of course, with Burgertron found innocent, this left the huge pile of suspicious evidence lying around needing investigated. Spud Muffin announced they'd look into all that ''for reals''... right after a massive dance party. As he danced, shedding greasy salt everywhere, Spud Muffin quietly sang to himself about how he'd got away with things again... {{storylink|Crime and Bun-ishment}}

==Notes==
[[File:BotBots - Goldrush 2 - fries.jpg|150px|upright=1|thumb|Do you want me with that?]]
* Spud Muffin's name is a play on the term "Stud Muffin", a term used to describe an extremely attractive and popular (in a sexytimes sense) human male.
* Spud Muffin appears as a prop on the [[Decepticon]] snack table in the ''[[Transformers Stop Motion Netflix Anime]]'' shorts "[[Virtually Reality]]", "[[Haunting of Bot House]]", "[[Anime Attack!]]", and "[[The Bot Dance Off]]".
* Throughout the ''BotBots'' cartoon, Spud Muffin's pupils will occasionally lose the little triangular "cutout" sections that most all other BotBots' pupils have. Whether or not he has them seems to be random, and he seems to be the only character this happens to.
