Mechlops

The Mechlops is a Luminoth robot created after a failed attempt to domesticate the Triclops. It was used generally as a sanitation drone, cleaning shafts and crawlspaces that, convieniently, are about the size of a Morph Ball. After the Ing attacked Aether, they too turned rogue, but they merely behaved as if they were Triclopses, patrolling their chosen territory and carrying away any intruders.

The Mechlops has the same build as a Triclops, with three jaws, stubby legs and nigh-impenitreble armor. It sucks up anything the size of a Morph Ball into its jaws and carries it out of its lair, but a good struggle (simply mashing the A button) will make it drop the Morph Ball. Fortunately, the rogue robots inherit its derivative's stupidity, and will eagerly scoop up Morph Ball Bombs into its vulnerable jaws.
