Steve Cobs was an object businessman and inventor. He was the founder and sole CEO of Meeple Inc. and its more famous for the MePhone products with its living forms, most famously MePhone4 and his final creation MePhoneX.

Cobs initially created the first three MePhones and started the Meeple invasion of the Shimmer Planet, resulting in catastrophic failure. When creating MePhone4, he inserted the energy of one of the young Light Shimmers as a core to generate anything, just to return even more powerful. Most likely, he kept watching 4 and MePad as he planned more creations to exterminate him, like MePhone4S.

Development

Inspiration

Steve Cobs, obviously by his name, was inspired by the American businessman and inventor Steve Jobs, the founder and chairman of Apple Inc. (who also inspired Meeple Inc.) and the inventor of the iPhone (which would result in the MePhone). The surname Cobs is also a name given to the Corncob, the inner part of a corn.

It is implied that Steve Cobs might existed during season one.
