–Petetronic, "Epic Mickey" | ||
Petetronic is the second boss of Epic Mickey, and is Tomorrow City's version of Pete. He was sent to the Wasteland to protect Tomorrow City, but he was scared after the Blot's attack and went mad. He is based on Tron from the film franchise of the same name, though during his battle in the first game he takes the appearance of Sark from the first film.
He is voiced by Jim Cummings.
In Epic Mickey and Epic Mickey: Rebrushed[]
Prior the events of the game, Petetronic was sent to Tomorrow City to defend it during the Blot Wars. However at one point, he turned mad and sided with the Blot and the Mad Doctor. Shortly after the Mad Doctor sabotaged the Moonliner Rocket, he gave one part to Petetronic, Petetronic then headed to the Space Voyage Roof before facing Mickey Mouse.
Strategy[]
In the boss battle with Petetronic, he has a pump on his back. Mickey has two options: he can either spray Paint into the pump and redeem him, or spray Thinner in and destroy him. If Mickey chooses to use Paint and redeem Petetronic, his armor will slowly fade away, until his head apparatus disappears, breaking his mind control. He thanks Mickey for helping him, and gives him his disk, the part for the Moonliner Rocket. Mickey is also rewarded with higher Paint capacity, and earns the "Redeemed Petetronic" pin. In the Good Ending, he is seen riding the Rocket Ride in Tomorrow Square with some Gremlins.
If Mickey uses Thinner, Petetronic will become more and more vulnerable to his own disk attack, and eventually succumb to it once the Thinner side of the pump is full, and the lines on his body start to turn green. Performing the Thinner-based strategy increases Mickey's Thinner capacity, and upon return to Mean Street, Big Bad Pete will be furious, but will still give Mickey the "Defeated Petetronic" pin. In the Bad Ending, a virtual image of Petetronic, appears on a TV screen, scaring away some Gremlins, having survived his battle with Mickey through virtual use. Alongside the rest of the Petes, his ending represents the ways in which we treat others.
In Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two[]
| “ | "Petetronic? Last time I saw you, you were contstructin' Beetleworx for the Mad Doctor."
"Yeah well, Big Bad Pete asked me to help out with the Club. They need energy since the quake broke the generator, see? So here I am." |

–Mickey and Petetronic, "Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two" | ||
Petetronic makes a return in Epic Mickey 2, confirming that Mickey redeemed him in the canon path of the first game. He appears in Blot Alley, where he watches over Club 13. After explaining where Gremlin Prescott disappeared to, Petetronic then says that he need Scrap Metal in order to repair the generator to open the door towards the Train Tunnels, and proceed to take all the Scrap Metals from Mickey and Oswald.
As he repair the generator, two Blotworx, a Rocker and a Blocker arrive on the scene and Petetronic asks the heroes to get rid of them. If the Blue Gremlin, Gremlin Ditto, has been rescued he will repair the machine before Petetronic and open the doorway. If the Blotworx are dealt with Petetronic will reward back Mickey and Oswald with all their Scrap Metal, if the Blotworx are painted in (including the extra Rocker) Petetronic will reward the player with all their Scrap Metal and a silver pin. If he is ignored and the heroes leave without dealing with the Blotworx he will appear along with the other Petes in the Post-Credits scene.
Trivia[]
- While Petetronic's design in the original game is based off the 1982 movie, "Tron", his design in the remake is based off "Tron: Legacy".
- According to an early render of his Rebrushed model, Petetronic was supposed to have an antenna on his head.
- Initial concept art showed Petetronic to be more of a cyborg, inspired by the movie "The Terminator". It is more ambiguous in the finished games, where he could just as well be just a Toon wearing a TRON suit, or an animatronic.
- Petetronic's name is also a pun of "Pete" and "Tron". It is also the same time a pun between "Pete" and "Electronic".
- If Mickey redeem Petetronic, Gus will comment that his power will be useful for helping Wasteland.
