*{{Spoiler| Instead of speaking like standard turrets, they make unusual chirping sounds, although they sound like sped up and gargled voice clips which can be roughly translated to "Let me think about this.", "What are you doing?", "Up!" and "Please put me down!"}} | *{{Spoiler| Instead of speaking like standard turrets, they make unusual chirping sounds, although they sound like sped up and gargled voice clips which can be roughly translated to "Let me think about this.", "What are you doing?", "Up!" and "Please put me down!"}} | ||
When picked up, they tuck their turret bodies and legs into the cube, like hermit crabs; the term "hermit" is used in the related animations. It is also interesting to note that their form of locomotion is very much reminiscent of hermit crabs. | |||
*{{Spoiler| Their cube fixtures feature a modified version of the [[Aperture Science|Enrichment Center]] logo, reading "Wheatley Laboratories" instead of "Aperture Laboratories". This change is also visible on the loading screens during the time in Wheatley's testing track.}} | *{{Spoiler| Their cube fixtures feature a modified version of the [[Aperture Science|Enrichment Center]] logo, reading "Wheatley Laboratories" instead of "Aperture Laboratories".

* | *The turret heads on the cube are not consistently patterned. Occasionally they will be missing half or all of their plating. | ||
* | *If placed right side up, they attempt to headbutt Chell, to no effect. | ||
*{{Spoiler| If they are moved against one of Wheatley's screens through an [[Excursion Funnel]], they will smash it after a short amount of time.}} | *{{Spoiler| If they are moved against one of Wheatley's screens through an [[Excursion Funnel]], they will smash it after a short amount of time.}} | ||

*{{Spoiler| Wheatley did not get electrocuted for telling the Frankenturrets to get on the button, like when he tried to help Chell during one chamber. This could indicate that Frankenturrets don't qualify as test subjects.}} | *{{Spoiler| Wheatley did not get electrocuted for telling the Frankenturrets to get on the button, like when he tried to help Chell during one chamber.

* | *Whenever Chell picks one up, they tuck their turret legs in and shiver, looking visibly terrified. {{Spoiler| This may be because of something Wheatley had done to them before, after or during their creation. Also, as Wheatley is very frustrated with their lack of progress, he may have physically punished them.}} | ||
*{{Spoiler| A Frankenturret can be found on one of the walkways shortly after Chapter 9 begins. It becomes excited when it sees Chell and bounces up and down, saying "Take me with you!" However, before Chell can reach it, it is destroyed by a poorly aimed crusher which Wheatley intended for Chell.}} | *{{Spoiler| A Frankenturret can be found on one of the walkways shortly after Chapter 9 begins.

*{{Spoiler| During the co-op credits, a Frankenturret can be seen hopping along in front of the conveyor belt. Another also appears on the belt to be scanned, as do most of the NPCs and objects in the game.}} | *{{Spoiler| During the co-op credits, a Frankenturret can be seen hopping along in front of the conveyor belt.

* | *Unlike normal turrets, the turret portion of a Frankenturret cannot be destroyed by lasers, {{Spoiler| possibly because Wheatley stripped them of their ammunitionary parts and thus made them non-explosive.}} | ||
