Toolboxx is the Omnitrix's DNA sample of a Talpaedan from the planet Poiana Lüncas.[note 1]
Appearance[]
Toolboxx looks mostly similar to Armodrillo in Omniverse except his armor is colored mild blue and his hands, toes, tail, jackhammer pistons, and ears are colored gold. The Omnitrix symbol on his chest is blue with a golden rim.
Powers and Abilities[]
Toolboxx has incredible digging capabilities thanks to his jackhammer arms, and can transform his hands into drills to help himself burrow underground and move through it. Toolboxx can even dig through solid rock.[2] His drill hands can also be very useful in battle, as seen when Armodrillo fought Slamworm,[3] and can also cause a lot of pain to a Galilean.[4]
Toolboxx can create enough vibrations to collapse buildings into rubble, as demonstrated by Andreas when he destroyed a Forever Knight castle.[5]
Using his jackhammer arms, Toolboxx can propel himself very high into the air by punching the ground, as seen when Armodrillo avoided getting rammed by Crabdozer.[6]
Toolboxx can create destructive earthquakes by placing his hands on the ground and pumping the jackhammer pistons on his olecranons.[7] Toolboxx also has the capability to cause a magnitude 10 earthquake depending on where he tries it, such as fault lines on tectonic plates.[DR 1]
Toolboxx is able to create fissures in the ground.[8]
Toolboxx possesses enhanced strength, as Armodrillo was able to destroy ten robots from Dimension 12,[9] lift up a Mucilator,[10] and hold his own against Trombipulor.[11]
Using his jackhammer arms and rockets in his pistons, Toolboxx can create shock waves to blast away larger enemies with a single punch[3] and launch objects he is holding.[12]
Toolboxx possesses enhanced durability, courtesy of his armor. He is durable enough to withstand attacks from many powerful opponents, as well as being thrown through walls and other solid surfaces.
Toolboxx is immune to neuroshock blasts, as demonstrated by Andreas.[5]
Toolboxx is capable of spinning his drills so fast to move the air around it in high enough speeds to act like blender blades that are strong enough to destroy an entire tree.[13]
Toolboxx can extend his hands by pushing in the pistons on his arms.[12]
In a similar way to Geochelone Aerios, Toolboxx can retract his fingers, leaving only a spheroid hand in place.[2] This has been used by Aggregor to punch enemies.[14]
Weaknesses[]
Certain weapons can cause Toolboxx's nervous system to go out of control and make him unable to stop vibrating his arms.[15] He can also have a hard time controlling his jackhammers if he is scared, as demonstrated with Andreas.[5]
Being a Talpaedan, Toolboxx is at a massive disadvantage against a Slammoid due to them being able to easily dig him out of the ground.[10][6][3]
Toolboxx is weak against electricity.[15]
Toolboxx can be rendered unconscious if he is hit by a quill from a member of Argit's species.[5]
Toolboxx can be suffocated if a large amount of matter covers his whole body and compresses it enough.[16]
Toolboxx cannot cause an earthquake on surfaces such as bedrock.[DR 1]
History[]
Omniverse[]
- Toolboxx first appeared in It's a Mad, Mad, Mad Ben World: Part 1, where he fought Exo-Skull and Subdora alongside The Worst and Rook before launching The Worst into Exo-Skull's horn, causing an explosion that accidentally activated Maltruant's powers and sent everyone (except Rook) into a different dimension.

Trivia[]
- Besides Toolboxx, Ben 23 has alternate counterparts of all of Ben Prime's Andromeda aliens.[DJW 1]
- Despite being exclusive to Ben 23, Toolboxx was among the aliens considered to be featured in the reboot.[DR 2]
Notes[]
- ↑ Poiana Lüncas was revealed to be Armodrillo's, and by extension, the Talpaedans', home planet in the fifty-third issue of the Cartoon Network Action Pack series, released on December 1, 2010.[merch 1] Despite this, on April 14, 2011, a user named Reece Philippe Villamonte edited Armodrillo's page, claiming that Terraexcava was his home planet. The page for Terraexcava would later be created on April 30, 2011 by another user named Sillifactu, citing Bandai's website and fan site Ben10Toys.net as sources. Archived pages from the Bandai site do not seem to have any information regarding Armodrillo's home planet. Thus, Poiana Lüncas is the true name of the Talpaedans' home planet.[1]
