The Robot Mafia
* Voice Actor: Maurice LaMarche (Donbot, Clamps), John DiMaggio (Joey Mousepad)
A three-member crime syndicate operating out of "Fronty's Meat Market" (Not a front since 2997), who periodically dine at Elzar's, hijack shipments of Zuban cigars, arrange "accidents" for robots who act against them, as well as other unspecified Mafia-related illegal activities. It is speculated in the DVD commentary of "Bender Gets Made" that the Robot Mafia exists because robots are better at organized crime than humans, thus the human mafia was a victim of industrialization. This explains why, though many robots are criminals by choice, the mafia appears to have been built for that purpose. The robot mafia is apparently not very extensive; as in the episode "Bender Gets Made" the Donbot proclaims, "We're the robot mafia... the ENTIRE robot mafia".
* Donbot - The leader of the robot mafia, wears rings and a cape, he is the shortest of the three and is a stout robot.
* Joey Mousepad - A burly and almost awkwardly inarticulate goonbot wearing a computer-mouse necklace. He is also lacking in intelligence ("This guy's an ox! He's got oxen-like strength! Hey, he needs a nickname, right? Let's call him Clamps").
* Clamps - A skinny, twitchy, ultra-psychotic/sarcastic robot who is obsessed not only with the clamps at the ends of his arms, but also with using them. He once proclaimed "that's gotta clamp." after dropping an un-bendable girder on Flexo's head in "Bendless Love".
These three robots claim to make up the entire Robot Mafia. However, in other episodes Bender and Tinny Tim are also shown working for the mafia.
Though their most prominent appearance is in the episode "Bender Gets Made" they also make appearances individually or as a whole in various other episodes. The Donbot can be seen as a member of F.A.R.T. (Fathers Against Rude Television) in "Bender Should Not Be Allowed On TV", Donbot and Clamps make cameo appearances in "Crimes of the Hot." Also Clamps and Joey make an appearance in "A Tale of Two Santas" where the Santa Bot is seeing who's been naughty, he shows the two kicking a human on the ground in order to collect money. He declares them naughty for kicking the human for protection money and declares the human naughty for not paying them the protection money.
In "Bendless Love" it is revealed that the robot mafia supports the bending robot union which is on strike at that time. Though they want their support of the union to remain unknown to others outside the union they do take action to arrange the possible demise of scabs who flash their money around.
The three robots' names also appear in Robot Devil's Wheel of Robots, in "The Devil's Hands are Idle Playthings".

"It'll be clamp this clamp that...badda climp badda clamp" LOL[/img]
