Venus Frogtrap is a member of the Shed Heads from BotBots.
Feed me, Krelborn, feed me now!

Whether she's in her carnivorous alternate mode or her ambulatory robot form, Venus Frogtrap is a non-stop eating machine, devouring everything that happens to cross her path. Don't let this behavior fool you into thinking she's evil, however; she's just hungry.

Even so, someone should probably keep her away from the Greaser Gang...

Toys

BotBots

  • Blind Bag Mystery Figures (Single pack, 2018)
    • Series: 1
    • ID Code: 14
    • Level: 1 Star
Part of the first Series of BotBots, Venus Frogtrap changes from a Venus flytrap into a "robot mode" that's really just the pot with legs. Due to a design flaw, her stem cannot fold as far forward as the instructions suggest.
The only notable difference between the single-pack and multi-pack release (see below) is that the single-pack has production number stamping on her, where the multi-pack version does not.
She was available in the individual blindpacked assortment, and like all single-pack BotBots, is 1 to a case of 24.
This mold was also used to make Croaks.
  • Greaser Gang (8-pack, 2018)
    • Series: 1
    • Level: 1 Star
Venus is also available in one of the "Greaser Gang" 8-packs, packaged with Angry Cheese, Batsby, Fottle Barts, Goob Toob, Sippy Slurps, Sticky McGee, and Lost Bot Clogstopper.
This pack is a "recommended minimum buy" for a complete set of Series 1 BotBots.

Notes

  • Venus Frogtrap's stock art depicts her with an entirely different robot form than her final toy, though whether this is deliberate artistic reinterpretation or the subject of a late change to the toy design is as yet unknown.
