Blot (G1)

This subject of this article goes by multiple names that apply to other articles as well. SeeBlot (disambiguation),Blight (disambiguation).

Blot is aDecepticonTerrorconfrom theGeneration 1 continuity family.

There's only one thingAutobotsandDecepticonsboth agree on with no war or argument, and it's this:Blot(aliasBlight) is the most vile and disgusting Transformer ever assembled. He oozes fluids of questionable nature from various joints on his frame, and has a rank odor that usually keeps foes and allies far away from him. Naturally, all this scorn and insult has given the less-than-smart Blot quite the inferiority complex. Stuck with a hygiene problem he can't control and a central processor a few hertz too slow, Blot is both unable to solve the problems of his own stench and talk back to the insulting comments from his peers. Brutish and slow-witted, Blot is the classic dumb bully to those who don't give him respect... although he's not sharp enough to tell when said respect is faked. He's immensely loyal to those who at the very least pretend he's worth something, andHun-Gurrrin particular is a Decepticon to whom he shows unwavering support.

The otherTerrorcons,on the other hand, tolerate Blot enough, but are apprehensive about combining intoAbominuswith him, as it takes far too long to remove the stench he's passed on to them after they're finished.^[1]

“	I'm not as bad as I look—I'm worse.	”
—Blot'sbioquote sums him up accurately.

Blot servedScorponokonCybertronwith his fellow Terrorcons, until the disappearance ofFortress Maximus,their greatest nemesis. After being alerted to the presence of Fortress Maximus and the Autobots on the distant planetNebulos,Blot and the Decepticons tracked down their quarry at the planet's capital city,Koraja.Unfortunately for the Decepticons, the newly minted AutobotHeadmasterswere more than tough enough to drive off the invaders.Broken Glass!The Decepticons were only temporarily deterred, however, and continued their reign of terror on Nebulos. Scorponok sent Blot and the Terrorcons, along with theHorrorcons,to attack the resort city ofSplendora.When the Autobots arrived to defend the city, the Terrorcons merged to formAbominus,but the unitedTechnobotsbecameComputron,who used a combination of acid pellets and brute force to disassemble the robot and drive off the Decepticons.Love and Steel!Blot and the Terrorcons also joined Scorponok in an attack on theNursery,where they encountered another new kind of Autobot/Nebulon fusion:Targetmasters.Blot held his own with the aid of hisslimegun,and the Autobots eventually realized that the battle was bringing ruin to the agricultural facility. They fled from Blot and the rest of the Decepticons to bring an end to the carnage.Brothers in Armor!!

The Decepticons eventually traveled toEarth,and came into conflict with both Autobot and Decepticon alike. After a briefDecepticon Civil War,the united forces ofRatbatand Scorponok turned their rage on the Autobots underOptimus Prime's command. Blot gleefully joined in the battle, blasting the veteran AutobotTrackswith his acid spray. All parties eventually joined forces, however, against theUnderbase-enhanced might ofStarscream.The Terrorcons attempted to confront Starscream inBuenos Aires,Argentina,but were annihilated with a single wave of his hand.Dark Star

In2007,Blot was sent to the freelance peacekeeping agent known asDeath's Headas an emissary for the Decepticon army. Death's Head had sought a bounty againstGalvatronmonths earlier, only to have the offerrer,Rodimus Prime,interfere with the collection and rescind the offer. Blot proposed the mechanoid use Decepticon resources to enter Cybertron undetected and track Rodimus Prime's predicted movements to get his revenge. Death's Head was unconvinced by this appeal to his sense of pride, so then Blot appealed to his wallet and instantly the mech was interested in the deal.Headhunt

Frothing at the mouth (and the neck, and the ankle joints, and...), Blot enjoyed terrorizing the human population on2009while on his way to the latestenergonextraction site the Decepticons had rigged up. Unfortunately for them,Soundwaveand the Terrorcons proved incapable of fending off an Autobot strike team, who quickly destroyed their laboriously assembled drill. Seeking revenge, Blot and the others chased their foes back toAutobot City,only to end up passing through atrans-time dimensional portaland getting caught up in fighting for the fate of the universe. It seems the former 21st century Decepticon leader Galvatron had been active in the 20th century for too long, causing a timestorm which threatened both ends of the timeline, at1989and 2009.

Soundwave ostensibly agreed to help their 20th century counterparts, but in reality kept Blot and the other Terrorcons in reserve, hoping the other various factions present would do the heavy lifting for them. In the end, Soundwave and the 2009 Terrorcons chose the better part of valor and fled back to their home time rather than face the fighting mad Galvatron.Time Wars

Blot's first appearance was with his fellow Terrorcons insideUnicron's head.Galvatronused them to blast into Unicron so he could retrieve moreanti-electronsfor an attack against the Autobots. Blot and the others did a decent job in keeping the Autobots at bay, but were quickly forced into retreating whenGrimlockfinished building the Technobots and gave them the ability to merge into Computron.Grimlock's New Brain

Later, the Terrorcons were seen under the service of theQuintessons.Dirk Manushad sold the Quintessons aMolecular Disassembler/Reassembler.Eager to test the device, they had Blot act as the volunteer. The test proved that the device not only disassembled and reassembled matter like the name implied, but also cured whatever it had been used on of all broken parts, maladies, and other flaws. Cured of his imperfections, Blot felt sick.

When Dirk and his Technobot escorts were on their way through space, Abominus swooped down and attacked, shooting them from the sky. Theautomatic timerin Abominus, placed within by the Quintessons, forced Abominus to separate into his Terrorcon components.

Blot is a mess. No two ways about it. Emotionally and physically.

His unfortunate habit of leaking bodily fluids (oil, hydraulic and Primus knows what else) exacerbates his already low self-esteem, and so he presents a generally apathetic instinct to hygiene generally.

It doesn't help that Blot is unintelligent and slovenly, and prone to suffer breakdowns from lack of fluid. But he is very strong, loyal and agile, his piercing claws enabling Blot to climb virtually any vertical structure, making him overall useful for the Terrorcons to have around. In robot mode he's armed with a slime gun that fires a stream of odious corrosive liquid. Blot Bio

The Transformers

• Blot(Terrorcon,1987)

• Hasbro ID number:TR4
• Takara name:Butto
• Takara ID number:D-83
• Accessories:"Slime gun",laser mount

Released in the fourth year of Hasbro's USThe Transformerstoyline (third year in Europe and in Takara'sFight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformersline), Terrorcon Blot transforms into a long-armed, hunchbacked monster-thing. In monster mode, his backpack is used to mount his "slime gun" over his head. The peg for the gun also allows it to be hand-held in robot mode, but it's more or less just a cudgel if used that way.

He can form the leg or arm of any "Scramble City"-style combiner, though he is nominally Abominus's right arm. His usefulness as a leg is highly questionable, as his extraordinary width tends to push against whoever is positioned opposite him. Even his arm mode is far from ideal, as his beast mode legs project so far out that even Abominus's specially-shaped gun only barely clears them. He can also attach to Metroplex's robot mode.

There is a later-run variant of Blot, released in 1988, which not only lacks arubsign,but has beenretooledto fill in the indent on his beast noggin where the rubsign would have gone.

There is also a packaging variant for all four small Terrorcons, which included a random bonus Decepticon"Decoy" mini-figurine.

Blot was also available in a gift set with the rest of the Terrorcons. All of the Terrorcons are identical to their individual releases, although it is unknown if the versions without the rubsign indents were released in this format. (It's not terribly likely though.)

Part of the third wave ofPrime: Beast HuntersSeries 3CyberverseLegion Class toys, Blight transforms into a hulking bipedal dragonoid-like thing. Hisrobot modehands can hold the weapon via the latter's multiple3 mm posts,and he and the weapon feature numerous 3 mm mounting points.

Though not called out in theinstructions,Blight combines withCyberverseTwinstrike,Hun-Gurrr,Windrazor,andPredacon Rippersnapper,to formAbominus,with Blight forming the left leg.

• Accessories:Gun, Prime Armor/combiner hand, Prime Master gap filler/gun
• Known designers:John WardenandAaron Gray(Hasbro),Marcelo Matere(packaging artist)

Released in the third (and Terrorcon-dense) wave ofPower of the PrimesDeluxes, "Terrorcon Blot" is a heavyretoolofTerrorcon Rippersnapper,transforms into a hunchbacked creature based on his original toy. Like allPower of the PrimesDeluxe Class figures, he comes with Prime Armor with a spot forPrime Masters(and by extension,Titan Masters,Enigmas of Combination,orMatrix cores) and can form a Combiner hand. He includes a piece that can fill the gap in the armor or be held as a gun.

Blot can also change into a limb for anyCombiner Wars-style Combiner (or into one ofLegendsGodbomber's legs), although he is meant to combine withHun-Gurrrto formAbominus.

Blot's gun has a relatively short5 mm post.Combined with the claws that stick up above his hands, this means that he has trouble holding it securely. Blot also features an additional piece of plastic attached to the swivel that manages his monster mode head and top, primarily used to mount weapons in monster mode, though with the exception of his leg mode this part conspicuously sticks out of every one of his modes with no proper means of collapsing it.

Despite being a retool of Rippersnapper, Blot thankfully did not inherit that toy's fragile combiner-peg-hole problem, as his is molded in much thicker plastic.

Blot was retooled further intoGenerations SelectsLobclawandGulf.The original mold was also differently retooled intoOverbite.

Notes

• Blot had the evocative working name of "Slimebucket".
• In the 2010s, Hasbro lead designerJohn Wardenasked TakaraTomy staff on behalf of all us fans what Blot's alt-mode is supposed to be. The answer they gave was "ogre". Your mileage may vary.^[2]TheDecepticon Directiveexpansion for theTransformers Roleplaying Gamecalls him a "goo monster".
• In the 2005 IDW continuity, Blot may or may not be alive following Arcee's attack. It all depends on how snarkily you wish to interpretJohn Barber's tweets. However, seeing as he never makes another appearance, things aren't looking too good for ol' Blot.^[3]
• By the early 2010s, Hasbro lost the trademark "Blot", resulting in Blot'sTransformers: Primenamesake having to be called "Blight".Later in the decade, Hasbro got the trademark back, but now as" Terrorcon Blot "for stronger protection.
• Due to being (probably) dead, Blot never appeared in IDW'sWindbladevol. 1#2,wherein several of his teammates appeared redesigned according to their contemporaryTransformers: Primetoy namesakes. In2013,"Blight" (toy trademark issues) did get to appear as such in theTransformers Legendsmobile game. In2024,"Blot" (trademark back, baby!) also received a pay-to-unlock aesthetic skin (at right) based onPrimeBlight in theTransformers: Earth Warsmobile game.
