- The Plop Father is a member of the Sugar Shocks from BotBots.
When a shopping mall was covered in a strange energon mist, a cannolo was given life and became The Plop Father. He's a well-known troublemaker amongst the BotBots and tries his best to act tough. However, he is actually a coward and often leaves cannoli filling behind him as he runs from any given threat.
The Plop Father is a member of the Sugar Shocks, along with several other sweet and sugary BotBots, capisce?

- Level: 3 Star
- Known designers: AJ Piejko-Brown (packaging), Ryan Glantz (instruction designer)
- 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.
