Character description
Clamps' clamps are a rarely seen style of robot hand, that are apparently replaceable (Donbot offered to give Blotto a pair), and require regular maintenance. However this may be due to overuse. Clamps has a scar, riveted back together, below his right eye.
Production
As evidenced by the commentary for "Bendless Love", the producers wanted 'Clamp clamp ka-bamp!' to be his catchphrase.
Additional Info
Trivia
- According to "Xmas Time Is Fear"; Clamps needs to replace his clamps each year, "like running shoes".
- Strangely, while Joey Mousepad and Donbot are members of the League of Robots, Clamps is not.
- Attended 4 years of clamping school.
Quotes
Clamps: He's champin' for a clampin'!
Clamps: It's gonna be clamp this, clamp that. Bada-climp, bada-clamp!
Joey: They're coming straight toward our proximity. Maybe you should give 'em the clamps, Clamps.
Clamps: Gee, you think? You think that maybe I should use these clamps that I use every single day at every opportunity? [shouting] You're a freaking genius, you idiot!
Clamps: Alright, boss, give the word and I'll drop this unbendable girder. Clamp, clamp, ka-bamp!
Clamps: Ooh, that's gotta clamp!
