Decapitron is one of the puppets featured near the end of both Puppet Master 4 and Puppet Master 5: The Final Chapter. Its' appearance is modeled after Andre Toulon's outfit from Puppet Master III: Toulon's Revenge. It wears black gloves, a brown jacket with a black undershirt, a black belt, and black gloves. It's regular head has indented eyes and nose, and the base of its' head seems to resemble the base of a light bulb. Its' name seems to reflect the fact he has interchangable heads, when taking them off would make him decapitate himself.
History
Not much is known about Decapitron's background, other than the fact he was an unfinished puppet Andre Toulon worked on while he was alive. Decapitron's height and weight are also not revealed in the films as well. Decapitron has the soul of Andre Toulon, the namesake and creator of the puppets in the Puppet Master Franchise. Unlike the other puppet creations of Andre Toulon's, Decapitron cannot be activated by having the formula injected directly through a needle. Rather, it has to be activated by the formula combined with an electric current. When activated, its' regular head can do one of three things. The first being, its' head can replace itself with the head of Andre Toulon, who gives the current Puppet Master, Rick Myers, advice along the way. The second being if it is an enemy of the Puppet Master, a different head appears and causes the puppets to attack them (This only happened on the 5th film though). The third being that it can change its heads around, which can help it harness and project electric current at enemies. It is also seen to be one of the stronger puppets, since it is the only one that can kill the strongest Totem in Puppet Master 4 and Sutehk in Puppet Master 5. Although it only has a brief appearance in both of those films, because it is Toulon, it is also the leader of the puppets who leads the charge to defeat the Totems and Sutekh.
Trivia
- The puppet Decapitron was base on an idea stolen from an unfilmed 1989 screenplay (titled Decapitron) by Danny Bilson and Paul De Meo that was to be Empire Pictures' biggest budgeted movie, prior to that studio's collapse
