Grabbers are Sonic the Hedgehog minifigures introduced in LEGO Dimensions in 2016.
Background[]
Grabber is a recurring enemy in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. It is a mass-produced tarantula-based Badnik model created by Dr. Eggman. Grabbers can be found hanging on ceilings, where they will drop down and grab (hence the name of the Badnik) their targets from above.
Grabbers strongly resemble spiders. Their main body has yellow and black stripes that flash red and black as they are about to self-destruct. On their back is a wheel which they use to move on ceilings. They also have a round black head with two black eyes and white mandibles. They possess as well eight long, mechanical limbs, four on each side, on the bottom of their bodies.
In Sonic Generations, Grabbers were redesigned. In addition to appearing larger, they were given black limbs and cyan eyes with black pupils and two smaller eyes above each of them. The wheel on their backs were also removed. In Sonic Lost World, Grabbers returned to their original design, except with cyan irises and additional, smaller eyes.
