Slobbers

Mickey, a Slobber and a Splatter in Dark Beauty Castle

Slobbers are one of the strongest enemies in Epic Mickey, the first you encounter is a sort of Mini-Boss, but the others appears as regular enemies. According to Gremlin Gus, when Mickey encounters one of these, it means that the Blot really wants to stop him. He is first seen in the Tomorrow City Exhibit, on the purple platform behind the curtain, and when you see him, he roars and tries to throw Thinner at you. He will slash or smash you if you get close to him.

Strategy

The Slobber has three forms of attack: up-close melee, thinner blasts, and a giant inhale. The only way to cause damage to the beast is to wait for it to try and inhale Mickey, then pump it full of paint or thinner.

To defeat him, throw Thinner inside his mouth when he tries to inhale you. To redeem him, throw Paint inside his mouth when he tries to inhale you. If you throw enough Paint or Thinner, there is a chance he will get choked up, giving you time to run away from him. If you don't, he will continue to smash you after he tried to inhale you.

If you have 2 guardians, try using them. Use 2 Tints to befriend him, or use 2 Turps to defeat him.

Trivia

• The Slobber you meet in Tomorrow City Exhibit is set to do something if you use either of the brush's abilities. Using Paint on it will give you a picture of how Tomorrow City would look like if it was re-painted and Goofy's Torso. Use Thinner and get a picture of how Tomorrow City would look like thinned out and a Gold Pin. You can't get both in one run, as with many other things in the game.
• The other Slobbers that you meet will not mean anything if you use Paint or Thinner. Though it is a smart idea to use Paint since he's a Blotling you want on your side.
• Oswald (with a kick) and Madame Leona (with a spell) are the only known characters to kill one in one hit.
• The one in The Tomorrow City Exhibit is thought to either work for Petetronic (at first) or Mister Rover if you redeem it.
• Slobbers are a great blot to have on your side. They can with stand a masive wave of sweepers. You will see a huge number of sweepers on the last blotical inside the shadow blot. There is also a slobber that you can befriend. Use the slobber to distract the sweepers.
• Slobbers will make their return in Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two as seen in the Fort Wasteland Gameplay Video.
