{{SettledTPP}}
{{ProposalOutcome|passed|8-0-0|merge Stompybot 3000 with Colonel Pluck}}
This is something that stuck out to me while I was browsing the wiki one day: for whatever reason, the robot that Colonel Pluck uses in his boss battle, the [[Stompybot 3000]], is in a separate article, even though they are never seen apart from each other. Unlike something like [[Mr. L]] with his [[Brobot]], or [[Bowser Jr.]] with his [[Junior Clown Car]] (or, considering that the JCC did appear separately in ''Super Mario Maker'', his [[Megahammer]]), who actually have presences apart from their vehicles, the Stompybot may as well be a part of Colonel Pluck's character... nay, his ''primary, defining'' characteristic. If the robot didn't have a name, it might not have even been split.
Additionally, the content of the articles has almost total overlap: both articles claim their subjects to be the boss of the [[Factory (Donkey Kong Country Returns)|Factory]] area, and then proceed to describe the same boss battle. The only meaningful difference between the articles (aside from the physical descriptions of the entities themselves) is that Colonel Cluck has a trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', which even then features the Stompybot. Stompybot has little standing on its own outside of its unique name, so I suggest that we merge it to prevent needless repetition.

Who removed my statement that Pluck is made of rubber? I supplied evidence!
