Hippopotamass Design and Powers Revealed
Tom Perkins has designed another new alien. This time it's Hippopotamass, or as he spelt it, Hippopotomass. This is one of the many joke aliens Matt Wayne came up with during Ben 10: Omniverse's run.
Hippopotamass |
Hippopotamass is a blue hippo-like alien that is able to change density of himself or objects near him using yellow energy that he projects from his arms. He has three eyes, with one of them on his forehead, which glows yellow when he uses his powers. He wears the Omnitrix on his neckbrace.

Braindrain and Bungee Sponge Designs Revealed
Tom Perkins just keeps on giving. This time he shows off designs for Braindrain and Bungee Sponge. Bungee Sponge is one of the many joke aliens Matt Wayne came up with during Ben 10: Omniverse, while Braindrain is an Ormerowon, a zombie species that's been mentioned in the original series. Check them out below.
Braindrain |
Braindrain is zombie alien from the planet Anur Ormerow in the Anur System. His species was mentioned in Ben 10: Secret of the Omnitrix at the end of the movie. Braindrain is only accessible to Ben 10,000 and he is able to drain the life-force from enemies and temporarily turn them into zombified minions. We can see green electricity coming out of his body, presumably life-energy.
Bungee Sponge |
During Ben 10: Omniverse run, Matt Wayne joked about an alien named Bungee Sponge that Ben unlocked when he was 11 years old as an example of underpowered aliens that he moved on from. Tom Perkins' take on Bungee Sponge gave him two very long arms on his back, presumably to allow him to bungee jump off high places. He would be accessible by Ben 10,000.
What do you think of Braindrain and Bungee Sponge?

New Aliens Funguy and Terrorsaur REVEALED
Tom Perkins, a character designer who worked on the original Ben 10, has posted two new Ben 10,000 aliens on his Twitter, along with their powers. These future aliens are non-canon to Ben 10. Check them out below.
Funguy |
First up we have Funguy. Funguy is able to generate and release laughing gas from the pores on his arms. Funguy is not a Living Mushroo, but he is from the planet Flors Verdance, the same planet Wildvine's species, Floraunas, Tom Perkins would pick Greg Cipes to voice him.
Terrorsaur |
Next we have Terrorsaur.This pterodactyl-like alien is capable of flight and is able to induce psychic hallucinations into his opponents. Terrorsaur wears the Omnitrix on his chest.
Tom Perkins has also recently designed his version of Sandbox, Snakepit and Shellhead. Which you can see here. What do you think of these two new Ben 10,000 aliens?

Sandbox, Snakepit and Shellhead Designs and Powers Revealed
Sandbox, Snakepit, Shellhead, Toepick and Atomix were aliens that were mentioned in the original series episode Ken 10. Out of these five, Toepick and Atomix would appear in Ben 10: Omniverse. However, Sandbox, Snakepit and Shellhead would only remain as mentioned aliens that are in Ken Tennyson's Omnitrix. Tom Perkins, one of the designers from the original series, went on Twitter and showed off his illustrations of how he would had designed Sandbox, Snakepit and Shellhead if they had appeared in the original Ben 10, along with their powers. Check them out below.
Snakepit |
The first future Ben 10 alien that Thomas Perkins posted was Snakepit. A lot of fans speculated that he could be a member of Ssserpent's species, but it isn't so. Snakepit has three snake heads coming out of a broken egg-like torso with three-fingered arms and two-toed legs. Snakepit is able to shoot lightning-like yellow lasers from his eyes that will temporarily petrify opponents, similar to Medusa turning people to stone. He wore the Omnitrix on his chest.

Ventrilosquid Concept Sketch
Derrick J. Wyatt, who worked on Ben 10: Omniverse as the art director, showed his first concept sketch for Ventrilosquid. An alien that was mentioned by Matt Wayne on his forums a couple times. The alien never made a physical appearance and is described as having some sort of telekinesis and ventriloquism. Check out the image below.
Ventrilosquid |
So far, he looks like a squid with hair and gills. His tentacles resemble sock puppets and the Omnitrix is on his "chest" with two nodes sticking out of it, similar to Toepick's. It is unknown what his color scheme will be.
Derrick is drawing Ventrilosquid as the $4,000 tier goal on his GoFundMe, which successfully reached its goal of $5,000 to get an Omniverse-styled Fasttrack.

This scene takes place after Phil inserts a key into the Omnitrix that allows it to access Omni-Naut forms.

Snare-oh Figure Toy Review
Looks
Articulation
Snare-oh has nine points of articulation. He can rotate his arms 360, though it gets stuck on his bandages, however the bandages are rubbery so its not really a problem. I don't recommend dong it though. He has can bend at his elbows. He can lift his legs forward but not so much backwards. He can bend at his knees. His head is on a ball joint, so you can make him look 360 degrees and slightly upwards and downwards.
Trivia
- Snare-oh is one of the few Ben 10 action figures that has a ball joint. Some others includes Spidermonkey and Crashhopper.
