―Freakenstein |
Troglokhan is an animatronic toy, and fills the role of navigator for the Gorgonites. He was destroyed by the Commando Elite soon after their activation, but was later reassembled by his fellow Gorgonites using what they could find around The Inner Child, to the best of their ability. Aside from somehow reattaching every one of his limbs incorrectly, half of his torso was rebuilt using Stuart Abernathy's old radio, which miraculously still works.
design[]
Before: Before being torn apart he looked like a humanoid creature with blue skin, he wore strapping with small Spikes on them with shoulder armor on his right strap, and had various shackles around his right arm and neck with chains hanging off of them. He wore a loincloth around his waist and leather boots, along with wrapping on his left thigh. His main weapons were a dagger and club, with his main way to defend himself being a shield with a red skull on it.
After: After being torn apart the only thing he has left after being rebuilt is his dagger in his hand, but now in place of his foot. And club now mounted on the side of his body, swingable of course so he can still attack. His loincloth in place still and one of his boots intact. The shield still attached to his forearm. The things that replaced his old parts are a radio and the radio gears can swing his club and a stitch on other half of another toys face. Possibly to hide wires. A yellow wire replacing his right eye he has been stitch back together and the notable thing about him being rebuilt is that his dagger hand has been switched with his bootless foot, and his foot now in place of his hand. Meaning his left side has the bat and the booted foot. We see Troglakhan's left arm on the floor amid a large mess of boxes before he is shown to have died.
"he's a total freak! you almost feel sorry for him. you see a look on his face that's almost painful if he could change himself ,he would. originally freakenstein was just a toy that was put together very strangely. the producer's liked the design so much they added in the story prior to his transformation into freakenstein he was troglokhan, archer's right hand man. even though he looks intimidating, it dosen't look like he could do much damage" - joey orosco, co-designer
Small Soldiers (film)[]
troglokhan and his fellow gorgonites were design and made by Irwin wayfair. he was designed to be the navigator so he can make it easier to find their homeland of gorgon. he was seen being put up by Alan next to his fellow gorgonite slamfist. he was later found by Alan Abernathy and his leader archer after the commando elite wreck Alan's fathers toy store. his body parts were collected into archer's box before being thrown into the dumpster. later after the commando's tried to kill his leader in Alan's house he was found in the same dumpster his parts were thrown into rebuilt by his fellow gorgonites now as "freakenstein". he is seen in alan's room looking at his computer with punch-it to find information about gorgon and was there to witness the "beyond that" discussion. he was later seen watching the ransom tape for the surrender of him and his fellow gorgonites. he would be seen again when Larry and Irwin came to the Abernathy household. he would run and hide away with his fellow gorgonites in the kitchen where he hide behind a electric juicer. him and his fellow gorgonites tried to talk archer out of fighting before him and his fellow gorgonites agreed to fight back against the commando elite. he would drive a nail gun tank that was driven by a kip and butch figures moments before. he shot at any commando's he saw in his path before helping alan by shooting down chip hazard's helicopter. not much is known what happend in between the e,m,p blast and the morning after. alan finds him along with his fellow gorgonites under the satellite dish in Phil phimples backyard. he would last be seen in the boat with his fellow gorgonites before being set off to find gorgon
Trivia[]
- His eye can change color from green to red it's unclear if this was apart of his original toy function or after being rebuilt
- He is the only Gorgonite that is not present in the PS1 game.
- The toy of Troglokhan was capable of his right arm and leg to switch.
- In the novelizations and the Small Soldiers field guide, Troglokhan's nickname Freakenstein was given to him by Archer after Alan calls him similar to Frankenstein. However in the movie itself, he is never called by anything but his original name.
- It makes no sense for him to have one foot bare and the other with a boot, since it was never mentioned whether the boots could or could not be removed.[citation needed]
- Due to his mangled state, it makes little sense how Irwin recognized Freakenstein as being Troglakhan, because the only resemblance the fixed form has to his original state is his face, which is battered. So it is unclear why Irwin never questioned what happened to his creation.[citation needed]
- Troglokhan's knife is a repaint of Destro's knife from the 1993 G.I. Joe Hall of Fame toy line.
- While Archer is trying to convince the Gorgonites to fight back against the Commando Elite, Troglakhan says "Last time we fought, I woke up with AM FM". This could possibly mean that at the Inner Child that night, that he bravely fought the Commandos so his Gorgonite brethren could escape, knowing the consequences would be great.
- troglokhan's name is a combination of the word troglodyte and the name khan
