Appearance
Dollar-nator is made up of parts from a Chimp Chomp machine with three aqua-toned buttons and a red-colored joystick on the center. a ping-pong video game actively displayed within the screen, a restaurant grade hot dog steamer underneath his mouth which is also equipped with a microwave oven and other components as yet defined. He has standard robotic arms consisting of grey spherical collarbones connected by small sump pump flex hose bits followed by metallic parts that begin at the arms to his hands. His legs follow a similar pattern except his shoes are metallic and circular with built-in laces and cleats protruding from the bottom. He also has a power cord that is attached to his rear.
