Blot

This is part two of the six part Terrorcon spotlight. Say hello to the most disgusting Transformer ever assembled...Blot. He transforms into some kind of monster, and he typically forms the right arm of Abominus.

Blot has a fairly articulate alternate mode (for 1987). His monster head can look up, his monster arms have joints in the shoulders and elbows, and his monster legs move at the hips. His robot mode however suffers from the same problems as Sinnertwin. Blot's arms simply flip out and the legs are locked into position. His transformation is pretty simple. You flip back the shoulders of the monster arms, rotate the monster legs, pull down the robot legs, flip up the robot arms, and carefully flip the robot head up from the back.

Blot is called the most disgusting because his tech specs state that he oozes chemicals with foul odors from his joints. Both the Autobots and Decepticons find this bot gross, and the Terrorcons typically don't like to merge with him to form Abominus because they will smell for some time after. The next spotlight will be on Rippersnapper!
