Toilet Troop

The Toilet Troop is a subgroup from BotBots.

Rejected members include Abuminus and Compootron.

Cybertronians across the galaxy have fought in some grueling conditions, but few of them are as brave as the Toilet Troop, (sometimes the Custodial Crew)^[1] who courageously wade into messy bathrooms and more in their fight for cleanliness.

Lost Bots!

One day Dimlit set off with a group of fellow Lost Bots to see if they could find where they all belonged. The Detangler decided to see if he belonged in the bathroom with the Toilet Troop. He reconsidered after seeing Stinkosaurus Rex use poor Nobeeoh as deodorant, quickly leaving before he found out what the Toilet Troop might do to him. Lost Bots!

While Sergent Scrubadub unraveled a toilet paper roll, Frowhawk spray painted the Toilet Troop logo on a toilet bowl. Poo Sham entered varying as chocolate bar they mashed to look like poo. Sergent Scrubadub then reached the end of the roll, slipping and falling into the chocolate. Official Digital Commercial

Toys

BotBots

Series 1 Toilet Troop 5-pack on the right, featuring King Toots and Sudsbeard.

• BotBots packs (2018)
  • Series: 1, 2, 6 (as Toilet Troop), 6 (as Custodial Crew)

• Known designers: Mark Maher (concept artist), AJ Piejko-Brown (packaging), Ryan Glantz (instruction designer)

Part of the first and second Series of BotBots, the individual members of the Toilet Troop are spread out across a range of products too numerous to list here, so see individual entries if you really want the full rundown. Toilet Troop members can be found in:

• Single-bot Blind Bag Mystery Figures
• 5-Packs with two characters from the pack's theme team, two figures from two other teams, and an additional blind-packed rare "Lost Bot"
• 8-Packs with two characters from the pack's theme team, five figures from five other teams, and an additional blind-packed rare "Lost Bot"

There are three specifically "Toilet Troop" themed 8-packs in the Series 1:

• Frohawk, King Toots, Sticky McGee, Unilla Icequeencone, Dimlit (Lost Bot)
• King Toots, Sudsbeard, Shredder Jack, Waddlepop, Stinkeye Stapleton (Lost Bot)
• Frohawk, Poo Sham, Fit Ness Monster, Sprinkleberry D'uhnut, Bonz-Eye (Lost Bot)

The Toilet Troop were also listed as returning in Series 6, appearing in single-bot packs, 5-packs, or 8-packs. It's unknown if they would again have dedicated 5 or 8 packs, but it seems highly unlikely. A new release themed on them would be the Toilet Tank Surprise Unboxing 6-pack. Two variations would be available, with one known to include Dumpy Downer. However, this version of Series 6, while not officially cancelled, seems unlikely to ever be released at this point.

A new version of Series 6 was put up for preorder in March 2022, with the group returning under the new name "Custodial Crew", even including a new faction symbol. The reason for the aesthetic change is unknown. What is known is that in this Series they appear in two different sets of packaging:

• Single-bot Blind Bag Mystery Figures
• 8-Packs with characters only from the Custodial Crew, plus one blind-packed Bot from the Oil Slicks.

There are two specifically "Custodial Crew" themed 8-packs in Series 6:

• Bobby Bluejean, Caution, Clean Dive, Lady Loofah, Loose Deuce, Sergeant Scrubforce, Waxwell, ??? (blind-packed)
• Caution, Granny Giggleclean, Grunge Plunge, Loose Deuce, Roboclean, Unhandy, Vomit Comet, ??? (blind-packed)

Notes

Arrgh, you cursed BotBots! Look what you have done! I'm flushing, I'm flushing! Oh what a world, what a world. Who would've thought good little robots like you could destroy my beautiful clagginess?

• These are technically not the first bathroom-themed Transformers to exist; that unfortunate honor goes to John. They are, however, the first ones with toys.
• As revealed in the BotBots Official Sticker Book, the Lost Bots Clogstopper and The Detangler were lost from the Toilet Troop. Meanwhile, Greasebowl of the Oil Slicks seems like he might've started with the Custodial Crew.
