The Flu Bug Machine is a vehicle used by the Common Cold.
History[]
Its first appearance was in "Operation: T.O.M.M.Y." Numbuh 2's little brother, Tommy Gilligan, helped the Common Cold build it in order to seek revenge against his older brother for never letting Tommy hang out with him. However, before the end of the episode, the Common Cold ended up using Tommy as a part of the machine, betraying him.
Function[]
Its purpose was to infect the world with the flu virus, so that the Common Cold wouldn't be the only one who was constantly sick. The machine itself is scorpion-like in design, the gun being located in what would be the stinger. It shoots mucous out of the stinger. The mucous is produced from five children put in tubes on the back of the body of the vehicle. The head of the vehicle houses the cockpit, from which the Common Cold controls the machine.
