Trivia

 * According to in-game text, he got his armor from a junkyard.
 * This is true, as in his unlock comic strip, he was not hit by a beam, but a vending machine next to him in a junkyard did.
 * This means that parts from the junkyard fused with his body.
 * His name could possibly be a portmanteau of "rust bucket" and "bolt".
 * His helmet bears a slight resemblance to Marvel's Magneto.
 * His armor may be a reference to the Marvel Comics superhero, Iron Man.
 * He poses in the way similar to an Octo Zombie, a Troglobite, an Arcade Zombie, and a Jurassic Bully in Plants vs. Zombies 2, despite not having a body structure or build related to the four.
 * Randomly during his idle animation, a spatula appears from his right arm. When this happens, he will look at the spatula, and then his helmet will open, revealing his face. He notices this, looks at the player, and then closes his helmet.
 * A toaster also appears from his left arm, although it does not do anything. However, if he blocks an attack, he puts this toaster in front of his face to protect him.
 * After the 1.2.11 update, plants affected by Shrink Ray are actually shrunken down to half size.
