Popeye was a Heavyweight Flipper built by Rolo for BBEANS 2. Rolo also competed in BBEANS 1 with Nobody Nose. Popeye had the flipping power of Smashbox 2, but did not have one crucial thing that Smashbox 2 had. Popeye didn't have a stabilizer under the flippers to keep the chassis on the ground and make all the power from the flippers throw the other bot. Because Popeye didn't have a stabilizer, it had major problems in its second match, when it was incapable of flipping Greenpierce very far, because the chassis kept lifting up. Popeye was also 50kgs underweight, which is the right amount to add a stabilizer in. The Dictator II was flipped out of the arena very quickly be Popeye, and the rest of the match it spent just bouncing around and losing more and more parts, eventually getting KOed. in the second match, Popeye struggled to lift Greenpierce, and the match just went on and on until Popeye lost all of its flippers and lost by WBP. Popeye's match against Atomic was one of the quickest in BBEANS History, with Popeye immediately getting thrown over the rail, and instead of bouncing, just basically sitting on the deadly floor and taking more and more damage, for a very quick KO. Rolo is ranked 41st in BBEANS Standings.
