Notes
- In the episode "The Lost Bots and the Claw Crusade" from the BotBots cartoon, Disgusto Desserto is presented very differently, appearing as an elderly male bot with no visible mold, as opposed to the younger moldy female bot depicted by the toy. In fact, the character was initially mistaken for fellow cannoli-bot The Plop Father because the international credits referred to them as such, and since the character was never referred to by name in the episode itself, no one had any reason to believe otherwise. Showrunner Chris Wyatt later clarified that the character was based on Disgusto Desserto, despite the differences.[1] Writer Greg Hahn also confirmed that the character was named Disgusto Desserto in the script, noting that he was always intended as such and that he and co-writer Alan Denton "would've taken a much different approach with a mafia guy" if the Plop Father was the caretaker instead.
