Clamps is probably the most violent of the Robot Mafia, ready to clamp anyone at any time. Clamps' clamps are a rarely seen style of robot hand, that are apparently replaceable (Donbot offered to give Blotto a pair), and require regular maintainance. However this may be due to overuse. Clamps has a scar, rivited back together, below his right eye.
Additional Info
Trivia
- According to "Xmas Time Is Fear"; Clamps needs to replace his clamps each year, "like running shoes".
- As evidenced by the commentary for Bendless Love, the producers wanted his 'Clamp clamp ka-bamp!' to be his catchphrase.
- Strangely, while Joey Mousepad and Donbot are members of the League of Robots, Clamps is not.
