Once a normal ear of corn bot, he was spurred into action after seeing his friends covered in salt and butter by the nefarious villain known as The Cobbler! Determined to avenge his fallen comrades, he vowed to put a stop to this madbot's reign of corn-based villainy, by fighting fire with fire, or in this case, fighting popcorn with popcorn!

• Blind Bag Mystery Figures (Single pack, 2020)

• Series: 5
• ID number: 11
• Level: 2 Star

Part of the fifth series of BotBots, The Corn Crusader is a redeco of The Cobbler, transforming into a partially-husked ear of Peruvian purple corn. His robot mode has a cannon in place of his right hand.

He is slightly mistransformed in his stock photography, as his chest panel isn't flipped around to reveal the robot bits. Minor mistransformations like this were all over the Series 4 and 5 stock images, and the toys themselves lacked instructions.

He is available in the single-bot blindpacked assortment, packed 1 in a case of 24 like everyone else in the case. The Series 5 Mystery Figures assortment was initially skipped by retailers in the US, eventually appearing in June 2021 at Dollar Tree and Five Below stores.

• Level: 2 Star

He is also available blindpacked in one of the "Frequent Flyers"-themed 8-packs, along with Barf Bag, Bok Bok Bok-O, Doctor Flicker, Jet Setter, Lightweight, Shifty Gifty, and Yard Guard.
