Biotroid (2012 TV series)



The Biotroid is a Yeti/gorilla-like automaton piloted by the Kraang. It features, amongst other weapons, cannons from its buttocks.

It first appeared in the 2012 TV series episode "The Mutation Situation" where it was guarding a shipment of mutagen canisters on a Kraang stealth-ship. During the fight, the canisters the Biotroid was guarding had spilled out of the ship where one of them hit Kirby when he protected April from it. The Biotroid was defeated by the turtles and the Kraang stealth-ship was redirected to the moon.

Trivia

 * An action figure for Biotroid is in development, with an indeterminate release date.
 * The Biotroid's "butt cannons" may be a reference to the anime "Astro Boy".
 * The official TMNT fanclub listed its name as "Biodroid", despite all other promotional material and in-episode dialogue using the name Biotroid.
