Fiction

The Plop Father's power was a bad case of the "plops". Gross. BotBots Official Sticker Book
Toys
BotBots
- Sugar Shocks (5-pack, 2018)
- Series: 1
- Level: 3 Star
- Part of the first Series of BotBots, The Plop Father is a 1-inch tall robot who transforms into a cannolo. Whether or not it was intentional, the way The Plop Father's uni-leg is designed, makes it look like his "pants" are pulled down around his ankles, which is both hilarious and fits with the name and characterization.
- The Plop Father was only available in one of the "Sugar Shocks" themed 5-packs, along with Nail Byter, Slappyhappy, Waddlepop, and Lost Bot Burgertron.
- This mold was also used to make Disgusto Desserto.
This pack is a "recommended minimum buy" for a complete set of Series 1 BotBots.
Notes
- His name comes from the 1972 film The Godfather, in reference to the "Leave the gun, take the cannoli" scene.
- Early line-art of The Plop Father appears "inside" Clawsome's chest window, apparently as a plush version of the character available inside crane skill games, and on Driver Ted's game-screen in the "player 2" position.
- In the episode "The Lost Bots and the Claw Crusade" from the BotBots cartoon, Disgusto Desserto is misidentified as The Plop Father in the international credits.
Foreign names
- Turkish: Cannoli (online bio)
