Robert Callaghan *SPOILERS FOR THE MOVIE*
Professor Robert Callaghan
"We push the boundaries of robotics here. My students go on to shape the future. "'
The head professor of San Fransokyo Institute of Technology and Tadashi's mentor, he has made major achievements in the field of robotics. He encourages Hiro to attend SFIT and dissuades him from selling his microbots to Alistair Krei.
- The Ace: Callaghan is a brilliant and gifted scientist and teacher, and is famous In-Universe for developments in both engineering (Callaghan actuators) and robot programming (Callaghan's Laws of Robotics).
- Broken Ace: Yet, he threw it all away after the supposed death of his daughter after a failed Krei Tech experiment drove him to revenge.
- Actor Allusion: This isn't the only time that James Cromwell played a pioneer in the field of robotics.
- Badass Teacher: A villainous example; he's a robotics teacher, but as Yokai, he kicks a lot of ass.
- Big Bad: He was the one who stole Hiro's microbots and faked his death to get revenge on Alistair Krei, and eventually revealed as Yokai.
- Brainy Brunette: A picture of him twenty years ago from "Mini-Max" reveals that he had brown hair in his youth.
- Broken Pedestal: To his students and Hiro when it is revealed that he is Yokai.
- The Bus Came Back: He comes back in the series to give Hiro information about Professor Granville while having what appears to be the start of a redemption arc.
- Canon Foreigner: He was made specifically for the film adaptation.
- Cool Teacher: Tadashi's teacher and mentor and head of the school robotics program. He also encourages Hiro to do something more productive with his intelligence.
- Cynicism Catalyst: Abigail's apparent death by the portal was what caused Callaghan to become Yokai in his desire to avenge her.
- Evil All Along: He was already planning his revenge on Krei when we were introduced to his character.
- Ex-Big Bad: As Yokai, he is the Big Bad of the movie. In the series, Callaghan is shown to be in prison, regretting his actions and cooperating with Hiro when the latter needs information from him.
- Faking the Dead: He set the fire at the showcase to steal Hiro's invention and also fake his death so he's not suspected for it.
- Foil: He and Krei are explicitly set up as foils at the expo, with Krei wanting to profit off of Hiro's invention and Callaghan trying to persuade Hiro to use his talents for something more. This sets up the reversal when it's revealed that Callaghan is actually Yokai.
- Foreshadowing: When he warns Hiro not to sell his invention to Alistair Krei, he does so in a surprisingly condescending manner towards Krei. This foreshadows the extreme vengeance he holds towards Krei for causing his daughter's supposed death.
- Heel–Face Revolving Door: Started as a good teacher and father until the "death" of Abigail at the hand of Krei Tech's experiment caused a Face–Heel Turn, before committing a final Heel–Face Turn once he realizes the consequences of his actions and regrets them.
- Heel Realization: In the series, when Hiro visits him in prison, Callaghan is very regretful of what happened to Tadashi, and while he knows Hiro isn't happy to see him again, all that matters to him now is that Abigail is back, alive and well.
- Icy Blue Eyes: He's got piercing blue eyes and is the true identity of Yokai, the movie's Big Bad.
- I Owe You My Life: More like "I Owe You My Daughter's Life". After the team brought Abigail back from the portal and saved her life, Callaghan is eternally grateful for them, even if in the end he ended up incarcerated for his villainous actions. He's so thankful for it, that he refuses to tell anyone about their secret identities out of gratitude.
- Irony: He became Yokai to get revenge on Krei whom he believed caused his daughter's death. His intention was to make Krei watch as everything he built disappeared. When it turns out she's still alive and is rescued, his own criminal actions have ensured they will be separated by a prison sentence and his reputation is in ruins. His daughter will awaken to find that everything he built has disappeared. His expression when they take him away even says as much.
- Last-Name Basis: Is called Professor Callaghan or simply "Callaghan". Krei is the only person to call him by his first name, Robert.
- Meaningful Name: "Callaghan" is an Irish name meaning "bright-headed". His name Robert also means "fame-bright". Both tie with the fact Callaghan was a bright man with an impressive career, before he threw it all away and let revenge consume him.
- Mr. Exposition: In the series' episode "Mini-Max", Hiro visits Callaghan in jail where he gives Hiro, and to the audience as well, key informations about Professor Granville and her former star student, Obake.
- My God, What Have I Done?: His face as he gets arrested and watches Abigail get embarked into an ambulance shows nothing but regret, as he understands all his actions were for nothing. In "Mini-Max" he even gives a genuine apology to Hiro for what happened to Tadashi because of him.
- My Greatest Failure: Reconstructed. At first, Callaghan dismisses Tadashi's fate and calls it his own mistake. But as he's being arrested and realizes his action was All for Nothing, he seems remorseful and in "Mini-Max", gives a honest apology to Hiro for Tadashi's demise.Callaghan: I know it's not enough... but I'm sorry.
- Pet the Dog: Gives a genuine apology to Hiro for what happened to Tadashi because of him. He knows it's not enough, but he's clearly regretful.
- Put on a Prison Bus: At the end of the movie, he gets arrested after taking on the identity of the Big Bad. He is seen in a couple of episodes of the spin-off series, still in prison and remorseful of his actions.
- Redemption Demotion: Callaghan gets the start of a redemption in "Mini-Max" while he's in jail for probably a long time.
- Reed Richards Is Useless: Averted; in the movie, Hiro flips out when he first meets Callaghan and notes Callaghan's achievements in the field of robotics, such as Callaghan's Laws of Robotics. This seems to imply that he was a pioneer in A.I. development in the movie world.
- The Reveal: He's Yokai, and he faked his death and stole Hiro's invention in order to get revenge against Alistair Krei for causing his daughter's death.
- Secret-Keeper: After the events of the movie, he is one of the few people knowing Big Hero 6's Secret Identities, and he doesn't tell anyone. In "Hiro The Villain", he refuses to answer any of Chief Cruz's questions about the real identities of the team, and even tells him he's wrong about them being vigilantes.
- Shut Up, Hannibal!: He calls out Chief Cruz on his wrong judgement of Big Hero 6 being "criminals".
- Silver Fox: His hair has turned grey for a while, but he doesn't look older than his mid-fifties.
- Sir Not-Appearing-in-This-Trailer: He's absent from all the trailers save for a split second in this
TV spot. Major subversion, as he has appeared since the first official trailer as Yokai. - Start of Darkness: His daughter Abigail disappearing and supposedly dying in that portal was what drove him to villainy.
- Stepford Smiler: In the movie, he is a cross between depressed and unstable subtypes. On the outside, he is a kind, friendly teacher. On the inside, he is consumed with his grief to the point of losing his empathy and morals.
- Two Aliases, One Character: Professor Robert Callaghan and Yokai are one and the same.
- Unreliable Expositor: Callaghan when saying that Krei "cuts corners" with science. From what the video footage shows, if the reading had been serious, the general less demanding and Abigail less enthusiastic, he would have halted the experiment.
- Villain Has a Point: Despite his cruelty in telling Hiro that Tadashi's death was his own mistake, he is still somewhat correct in saying so, as Tadashi chose to run into the flaming SFIT building by himself, thus resulting in his death.
- Walking Spoiler: He dies in the fire... no, wait, he doesn't. Actually, he fakes his death and steals Hiro's invention, and he is the Big Bad dead set to destroy Alistair Krei whom he deems responsible for his daughter's apparent death.
- A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing: Even as Callaghan was planning his revenge, he was still seen as a kind teacher on the outside.
Professor Granville
Professor Grace Granville
"Students needs limits. Even geniuses."
The new dean of students at San Fransokyo Institute of Technology after Callaghan's arrest.
- Action Survivor: While not an Action Girl per-say, Granville makes up for her lack of fighting skills with running, in which she excels at and doesn't even get tired as she's being chased.Professor Granville: I may be bad at fighting, but I'm really good at running!
- Affectionate Nickname: Karmi calls her "Professor G". Surprisingly, Granville doesn't mind it.
- Alliterative Name: Grace Granville.
- Attack! Attack... Retreat! Retreat!: She tries to fight against Momakase while rescuing her students, only to realize she's a noob fighter against a trained ninja and decides that running away from her is her best skill.
- Badass in Distress: Despite holding her own against Momakase for quite some time, she is eventually neutralized and is about to be finished off by the chef, only for Big Hero 6 to rescue her just in time.
- Badass Teacher: In "Seventh Wheel", Granville goes against Momakase to rescue her students who have been held captive by the chef. While not considering herself a fighter, she's able to distract Momakase long enough while Baymax go finds the team by running from her without getting tired. Just Granville standing up to Momakase to save her students is pretty badass in itself.
- Beneath the Mask: Underneath her serious, no-nonsense mask, Professor Granville is surprisingly a repressed Genki Girl. She actually used to be a straight exemple when she taught at SFIT twenty years ago, as Wendy Wower
inspired her TV character from Granville herself. Her hidden excitable side shows by moments, like "Rivalry Weak", "Big Problem" and "Seventh Wheel". - Berserk Button:
- Slackers. She can get a little testy when rules are broken, but this is more of a Downplayed Example as she is able to control her temper quite well.
- When Hiro insists on doing a very dangerous experiment, Granville loses her cool and bangs her hand on the table and raises her voice at Hiro, which shocks the latter. It is entirely justified as her former star student Bob Aken (a.k.a Obake) committed the same experiment unbeknownst to her and caused him to be severely injured. She simply doesn't want history to repeat itself.
- Big Damn Heroes: Pulls one on Momakase who held Big Hero 6 hostage in her pantry.
- Big Ol' Eyebrows: Has thick black eyebrows.
- Black Boss Lady: She has dark skin, and as the no-nonsense dean of SFIT, she is the authority figure Big Hero 6 most frequently interacts with.
- Boyish Short Hair: Has her hair cut short in a pixie cut.
- Brainy Brunette: Has dark brown hair and is a brilliant scientist and teacher at SFIT.
- Character Development:
- She learns to be much more honest and easygoing as Season 1 goes on, particularly with Hiro, who she ends up having something of a bond with.
- She also learns to enjoy and give hugs, as she hugged Hiro to comfort him over his first Christmas without Tadashi.
- Cool Teacher: A Reasonable Authority Figure? Check. Hides an excitable side under her serious demeanor? Genre Savvy? Check. Badass? Check.
- A Day in the Limelight: "Seventh Wheel" mainly revolves around her not respecting her limits towards the team and rescuing them from Momakase.
- Demoted to Extra: She has far less appearances in Season 2 due to the Obake arc being done with (though she did have A Day in the Limelight in "Seventh Wheel").
- Drill Sergeant Nasty: Shows shades of this in "Rivalry Weak" towards Wasabi and Fred in order to prank SFAI, and in "Seventh Wheel" when putting the team through an exercise regimen. All Played for Laughs, of course.
- Expository Hairstyle Change: Back in the day when she taught at SFIT, she had long curly hair reaching under her nape. Twenty years after Obake's accident and when she started teaching again, she wears her hair in a short pixie cut, indicating her manners of teaching and the person she was back in the day have changed.
- Foil: To Callaghan. While Callaghan was generally lax and seemed to be a Reasonable Authority Figure, Granville is more no-nonsense. But while Callaghan ultimately succumbed to his own anger and ended up not caring for any of his students, Granville is only tough on her students because she wants them to be at their best.
- Fragile Speedster: Granville makes up for her lack of fighting with her incredible running speed and her stamina.
- Genki Girl: She used to be a straight example 20 years ago, and even inspired Wendy Wower's TV Character. But after a terrible lab accident injured one of her students, she quit her job in guilt and once she came back in the present day to replace Callaghan, became much more severe and uptight for her students' sake. It's later reconstructed as loosening up around the team makes her inner excitable side come out more often, like when she was a novice teacher.
- Genre Savvy: "Seventh Wheel" shows that Granville actually knows a lot about supervillains' tactics, and uses this to help Big Hero 6 against Momakase. Though her help slowly becomes smothering.
- Hates Being Touched: Implied. Let's just say she's not a hugger.
- Heroes Love Dogs: "The Dog Craze of Summer" reveals Professor Granville owns 3 dogs: a sheepdog, a rottweiler and a chihuahua, that she hires Hiro to dogsit while she's gone for the day.
- Hidden Depths: "Rivalry Week" reveals that she's actually quite a prankster, to the point she not only allows the group to pull a prank on SFAI, she actually joins in so that they don't get pranked first.
- Horrible Judge of Character:
- Subverted with Karmi — at first, it seems that she's fallen for Karmi's "nice girl" routine, but it later turns out that the reason she wanted Hiro and Karmi to hang out together was actually more for Karmi's sake rather than Hiro's sake.
- Played straight with Liv (or better said Di) Amara. Granville has no idea who she truly is and sees her as friend.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: She tends to be strict on her students, scolding Hiro for repeatedly violating school policy by breaking into Tadashi's former lab when it is off limits to first semester freshmen. However, she lectures him calmly and wants him to live up to his potential, praising him for his work efforts in class at one point. In fact, the times she lectures Hiro, she is patient and is determined that he not screw up his future. When Hiro fake cries, she is baffled and even tries comforting him (albeit reluctantly), even enduring a hug from him. Overall, she is a Reasonable Authority Figure.
- The Knights Who Say "Squee!": She fangirls hard when Liv Amara visits SFIT and wants to fund one of her students' projects.
- Lady in a Power Suit: She's shown wearing one during Liv Amara's gala.
- Last-Name Basis: She's only referred as "Professor Granville" (which is justified due to being called like this by her students). Her given name (Grace) is revealed in Season 1's nineteenth episode, "Big Problem".
- The Mentor: Acts like one towards Hiro. Makes sense when you realize he reminds her of her former star student she feels like she let down because she didn't give him limits.
- My Greatest Failure: The accident that left her student Bob Aken grievously injured. While she had nothing to do with the accident, she felt personally responsible due to her lack of supervision on her students, which consequently caused Bob to conduct more and more reckless experiments. This was what caused her to resign.
- Mysterious Past: Used to be a teacher at SFIT in the past, and left for reasons not explained yet, not mentioning that she used to be at the school when coming back, and is in a picture with a boy who appears to be a young Obake.
- Nice Girl: Underneath her harsh exterior, she's definitely a kind-hearted, generous and even friendly woman.
- No Celebrities Were Harmed: Her voice and demeanor is most likely based on that of Lynne Thigpen from Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego.
- Not So Above It All:
- "Rivalry Week" reveals she's just as enthusiastic about stealing SFAI's Lenore Shimamoto statue as the school's students. She even ropes Wasabi and Fred into guarding SFI's dining hall, making them wear camouflage clothes and use whistle signals, while she wears full-on spy gear.
- In "Seventh Wheel", Granville is about to fly on Baymax's back to save the team. Before blasting off, Baymax tells her "Don't look down.". As soon as Baymax is off the ground, every part of Granville's stoic nature vanishes.
Professor Granville: I LOOKED DOWN! I LOOKED DOOOOWN!- Falls just as hard as everyone else for the Mayoi's cuteness in "Something Fluffy", to Hiro's dismay.
- O.O.C. Is Serious Business:
- She gets all The Knights Who Say "Squee!" when Liv Amara visits SFIT.
- Played much more seriously when she discovers that Hiro proposed a power amplifier for his final project, where she's much more livid and emotional and outright rejects his proposal. Turns out her former student Bob Aken attempted the same before, only for the experiment to backfire horribly.
- When she meets her former student Obake, she's uncharacteristically emotional.
- She appears rather broken when she explains to Hiro Karmi's parents decided to have her move out of the city for her safety after she was mutated by Liv Amara's clone.
- Pet the Dog: Take any scene with her and apply this trope: first scene, she is sympathetic towards Tadashi's death, saying that he was an excellent student. She describes herself as "tough, but fair". She praises Hiro for his work efforts so far in a meeting and even decides to allow him access to Tadashi's former lab, thinking that it would help him.
- In "The Present", she expresses sympathy over the tough time Hiro must spend in this Christmas (which is the first without his brother by his side), and she kneels to hug him and give him a candy cane. It shows how much she's grown considering she hated being hugged in "Baymax Returns".
- Reasonable Authority Figure: She may seem strict, but it's to be expected considering her position. And with that, it comes with rationality, and she can be playful at times. For example, she tries to get Hiro and Karmi to befriend each other since the latter is friendless. And while she shows that she was somewhat irritated with Hiro spying on her in "Mini-Max", she understands and takes a moment to explain why she lied, apologizing to Hiro for not being honest since it caused more trouble than it was worth.
- Rummage Sale Reject: In "Seventh Wheel", Granville has no time to build herself an armor so she ends up mixing up parts of Big Hero 6's armors into one suit. (Honey's helmet, Wasabi's left gauntlet, Gogo's chest plate, and Hiro's pants and right gauntlet).
- Secret Secret-Keeper: She reveals to Big Hero 6 that she knew who they were the entire time in "Countdown to Catastrophe".
- Sixth Ranger: Becomes the Seventh Ranger to Big Hero 6 in the episode "Seventh Wheel", where she gives helpful (though pushy) advice to the team and even goes to rescue them from Momakase. She chooses to resign by the end of the episode.
- Stern Teacher: Tough, but fair. She's mainly tough on her students, Hiro in particular, because she wants them to succeed while still respecting their limits. She especially has a soft spot for teen geniuses, as seen with Hiro, Karmi and Bob Aken, whom she's determined into leading to the right direction.
- Team Mom: She acts like this towards the Big Hero 6 team.
- Tragic Keepsake: Why does she have a dangerous energy amplifier in her office? It's the one that Bob Aken made that caused his accident.
- True Blue Femininity: She wears a blue tailored suit in "Big Problem".
- Unskilled, but Strong: She doesn't have any fighting skills, but she has a good stamina and can easily escape Momakase and leave her hanging long enough while Baymax frees the rest of Big Hero 6.
- Unwanted Assistance: The whole premise of "Seventh Wheel". While she means well and starts out helpful, Granville quickly begins to overstep her bounds, putting the team on a exercise regimen, planning their missions for them, and "fixing" Wasabi's plasma blades, causing them to make a really annoying sound when activated.
- Victory by Endurance: While Granville doesn't stand a chance against Momakase, she keeps up against her by running from her with her unlimited stamina, which keeps Momakase focused on trying to get to her while Baymax frees the team. When she does get caught however, the team rescue her in time before Momakase can kill her.
- Wrench Wench: She's a thermodynamics teacher, but she also teaches (or at least taught) robotics, in which she showcases herself to be quite skilled in by how she fixes Baymax without problem in "Seventh Wheel". She also created and built the security system spider bots.

A kids' TV Show Host and a former robotics student at SFIT. Now a renowned expert in robotics.
- Alliterative Name: Wendy Wower.
- Ambiguously Brown: Her skin tone is a tan olive tone, but we have no mention of her ethnicity.
- Anime Hair: Either Wendy uses a lot of hairspray, or her two green pigtails can defy gravity.
- Behind Every Great Man: Wendy is the one behind the thesis, and Trevor stole it and got all the credit.
- Brainy Brunette: Is a natural brunette and was a robotics major at SFIT in her youth. She was Trevor's lab partner and he stole the robotics thesis that made him famous from her.
- Cloudcuckoolander: Perhaps her TV character has grown into her actual personality, but Wendy has a few weird quips.
- Damsel in Distress: Mr. Sparkles attempts to kidnap her and bring her to Liv in "City of Monsters". Luckily, the team intervenes in time and they rescue her before Sparkles can take her away.
- Endearingly Dorky: Her colorful clothing, impromptu ukulele songs and excited happy attitude definitely makes her endearing to her audience.
- Excited Kids' Show Host: Is the host of her own show "Wendy Wower Science Hour", and she teaches science to her kid audience with an energetic, jovial attitude.
- Friend to All Children: Her main audience are kids, and they love being around her.
- Genius Ditz: Downplayed. She's at first introduced as a cloudcuckoolander that teaches kids basic science, but she's shown to be smarter than she looks and actually a robotics expert, as it's what she majored in SFIT. It's actually her who wrote the thesis Trevor Trengrove stole.
- Genki Girl: Very energetic and enthusiastic about science.
- Girlish Pigtails: Her TV Show character wears her hair in two green pigtails.
- Hidden Depths: While she may come across as bit strange, she's actually revealed to be quite a genius herself, being a robotics major who greatly appreciates Baymax's design.

- Perpetual Smiler: She's excited and happy, thus she's always smiling.
- Pink Means Feminine: Wears a pink shirt and shoes.
- Quirky Ukulele: Wendy Wower always carries a ukulele wherever she goes to sing impromptu songs about science.
- Self-Serving Memory: Wendy says she based her persona on Professor Granville, or rather how she insists on remembering her.
- Turns out, considering the information we learn about her later on, this interpretation may not have been too off in the past. Though based on Granville's reaction to this herself...Maybe Wendy is just remembering weirdly.
- We Need a Distraction: Distracts Yama and his goons with her group's baking soda volcanoes while Hiro and Baymax sneaks inside Trevor's workshop.
- Womanchild: She's in her late 30's at the least and seems to be constantly in her kid show host character, even if she's not hosting said show.
Trevor Trengrove
Dr. Trevor Trengrove
"Who's jazzed for some science?"
Voiced by: Andy Daly
Appearances: The Series (debut: "Small Hiro One")
Appearances: The Series (debut: "Small Hiro One")
An alumni of SFIT that became a famous scientist.
- Accidental Misnaming: Trevor calls Hiro "Kiro".
- Alliterative Name: Trevor Trengrove.
- Behind Every Great Man: Wendy is the one behind the thesis, and Trevor stole it and got all the credit.
- Brainy Brunette: Seems to be the case considering how big of a scientist Trevor is, but actually subverted as Trevor actually stole Wendy's thesis and slowly reveals himself to not entirely know science and its terms.
- Played straight in his youth, when he was in Professor Granville's robotics class.
- Easily Forgiven: Despite not being on speaking terms for many years, Wendy was more than grateful that Trevor gave her back her thesis and will admit to what he did.
- Fake Ultimate Hero: He stole Wendy Wower's thesis on artificial intelligence, using it to make himself a celebrity and idol among young scientists. He's felt really guilty about it, and after being blackmailed, he decides to give Wendy back her thesis.
- Heel–Face Turn: Ultimately betrays Yama and gives Wendy back her original thesis.
- Inferiority Superiority Complex: Portrays a version of himself that is almost infuriatingly egotistical and self-centered. As the episode goes on, this becomes very clearly not the case.
- Kick the Dog:
- Tricking Karmi into getting a free ice cream to kick her out of his workshop, before doing the same to other students.
- Stealing Wendy's thesis and getting all the credit for it is probably his biggest dick move.
- Jerkass Realization: Trevor ended up being a glory-mongering jerk who stole Wendy's thesis, but after all the trouble he was put through with the blackmail, Trengrove does feel bad for it all and decides he will tell the world and give Wendy the credit she deserves in the first place.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Repeatedly kicks anyone out who isn't a physics, engineering, or chemistry major, and in a rather rude and obnoxious way at that. Regardless of his actions, it doesn't change he really does mean well, and deeply regrets his actions towards Wendy.
- One-Shot Character: Contrary to Wendy, who had more appearances following "Small Hiro One", Trevor isn't seen or mentioned again after this episode.
- Perpetual Smiler: Has a constant fake smile on his face.
- Plagiarism in Fiction: Trevor stole Wendy's thesis.
- Took a Level in Kindness: By the end of "Small Hiro One", Trevor betrays Yama and gives back Wendy's thesis to her, stating he had felt guilty about it for long and it's time people knew the truth.
- The Un-Smile: He has a very creepy grin on his face as he watches the team work.
Inventions
Security System Robots
Robots invented by Professor Granville to protect SFIT from outside threats.
- 2D Visuals, 3D Effects: They're animated in CGI, which stands out from the 2D of the series.
- Absurd Cutting Power: One managed to slice Globby in half (though it helps he's made out of goo).
- Attack Drone: They chase intruders from SFIT'S premises.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Thanks to Obake hacking them and making them mark Hiro and Granville as threats.
- Cyber Cyclops: They have one sole green eye.
- Killer Robot: Only when hacked, but they have the full potential to be this.
- Light Is Good: They're white and part of the security system at SFIT. Averted once they get hacked by Obake.
- Mecha-Mooks: A non-villainous example. While SFIT's robots are competent, they've been destroyed in each of their appearances: by Fred's Logic Bomb, by Momakase's graphene katanas and Chris neutralized one with a single punch.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: When they see someone/something as a threat, their green eye turns red and they attack the intruder.
- Robot Maid: "Seventh Wheel" shows that Granville also uses the spider bots as maids, complete with maid aprons.
- Rolling Attack: The bots can roll on themselves thanks to their round design and use it to attack, but also to catch up to their opponents.
- Surveillance Drone: Their main purpose.
- Spider Tank: They ressemble four-legged spiders and are called "Killer Spider Robots" at one point.
- Static Stun Gun: They're equipped with claw-like tasers in their legs, which they can use to neutralize threats.
