The Spider Bomb is a character that appears in the Sonic Boom series. It is a mass-produced model of spider-like robots created by Dr. Eggman for an absurd plot.

Appearance

Spider Bomb are diminutive robots small enough to hide inside coconuts. They have grey cylinder-shaped bodies with five legs and one red eye. They also have three holes on one side of their heads, and a glowing red line around the top of their foreheads.

History

TV series

Season one

A Spider Bomb infesting a coconut, from "Closed Door Policy".

Multiple Spider Bombs were summoned by Dr. Eggman to turn every coconut on Seaside Island into "deadly Explode-o-nuts" by finding coconuts, drill into them, and inhabit them until they could blow up. However, Team Sonic discovered this plot, though confused at its absurdity, and returned the Spider Bomb-infested coconuts Eggman used against them as they exploded. Some Spider Bomb-infested coconuts remained though. A dud was used by Team Sonic when they fought the Froglodytes in the Froglodyte Caves and another one dropped in on Eggman and blew up in his face, destroying his recently-bought comic.

Season two

Coming under Hypnobot's command when he and Dr. Eggman made an alliance, a Spider Bomb joined the villains' army on an invasion of Morristown. During the invasion though, the Spider Bomb got taken out by Amy before it could do any damage.

Powers and abilities

Each Spider Bomb is capable of self-detonation. Though Eggman claims the force of their detonation is lethal, their explosions can at most only give a person several bruises. They are also equipped with drills that they can use to drill through coconut shells. As Eggman robots, the Spider Bombs are also able to receive power remotely from Eggman's lair.

Weakness

Being Eggman robots, the Spider Bombs rely on Eggman's lair to provide them with power. As such, should the lair run out of power, then they will too.

Trivia

• According to Amy, the Spider Bombs are a subliminal cry for help on Eggman's behalf.
