Ghettobots
- "Those bruthas aren't from North Philly. They are some sort of space jawn."
- ―Darnell, Pico 2
The Ghettobots are major antagonists in the Pico series. Composed of Leroy, Roc, and José, they're introduced in Pico's School as "students from the ghetto" who were brought in courtesy of the McGibbles' Kids Program. In reality, they are a trio of cyborgs created by the Penilians to eliminate Pico as revenge for thwarting their plans.
History
Pico's School
In Pico's School, the Ghettobots are introduced in the ending, replacing the kids who died during the Goth Punks' attempt at taking over the school. Once they arrive, however, Pico immediately becomes hostile and pulls out his gun.
UFA
In UFA, the Ghettobots are briefly mentioned in the opening text to have been "controlled" by Pico following the events of Pico's School, preventing the Penilians from storming Earth for a century, until Pico eventually dies of old age.
Pico vs. Überkids
In Pico vs. Überkids, they are only seen in the opening of the game.
Pico 2
In Pico 2, the Ghettobots were intended to be the primary antagonists, revealed as a group of robots, created by the Penilians to enact their revenge on Pico. At a later point in the game, Roc was intended to have a boss fight on the Westbound Subway train, where he would seemingly throw the passengers at Pico as an attack. José was also supposed to be a boss at an unknown point in the game. Not much else is known due to the cancellation of Pico 2.
Pico Roulette
In Pico Roulette, the Ghettobots appear as individual playable characters.

Pico's Unloaded
In Pico's Unloaded, the Ghettobots make a brief cameo appearance at the very end of the animation, where the group waits for Pico to come over to their milkshake spot named Shake-It. Leroy hands over and crushes a drink to a beaten-up Pico, who gets angry and grabs a mop as a weapon to fight the Ghettobots.
