- Drillfrog is a Beastformer from the Headmasters portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Drillfrog (ドリルフロッグ Dorirufuroggu), also known as Rog (ロッグ Roggu), is one of the many Beastformers who joined the insurgent army under Alligatron raised by Galvatron in order to aid his Decepticons in conquering the formerly-peaceful planet Beast. His role in the Decepticon-allied Beastformer forces is an underwater offensive soldier. He is aided in this role by the fact that he naturally contaminates drinking water with venom discharged from his body. His hands and feet can support his weight sticking to any surface, and he is a powerful jumper. Presumably these are inherent attributes of his species. His MVP Weapon, the Rog Driller, can drill through even bedrock, allowing him to burrow through the ground and attack from unexpected directions.
Drillfrog holds the rank of King of Barāki, in whose agricultural area he was born, over Emperor Snakebomb who he grew up alongside with and is best friends with. When they fight together, they can employ their guerilla tactics on any battlefield, be it in the sky, on the ground or under water. He's popular for his lighthearted attitude but has a weakness for dark humor.
Fiction
The Headmasters cartoon
Galvatron and the Decepticons came to planet Beast to enslave the population, forcing them to work on a mysterious engineering project. Alligatron and the Beasts loyal to him, including Drillfrog, became collaborators with the Decepticons, helping to enslave their own people. They were opposed by White Leo and his rebel forces. Drillfrog personally supervised in the slave pits, whipping his own people if they failed to work fast enough. After White Leo sought help from the Autobots, the Headmasters and Monsterbots arrived on Beast. Drillfrog watched over the prisoners, Danny and Wheelie, until they managed to escape.
