  • Robots - How many do you recognize?

  • Somehow, we still tolerate each other. Eventually this will be the only forum left.

Bender, The Jetsons robot, Robocop, Terminator, the two Star Wars robots, a Cylon,

no Borg, no Robo (Chrono Trigger), no Starman (Earthbound), no Megaman.

One of my coworkers mentioned the borg wasnt on there. Would a borg really be a robot though?

I couldnt find DARYL...he's a robot isnt he?


I guess the better question is, what robot do you know of that ISNT on there.

Props for: 790 (the robot head) from LEXX. K9 from Tom Baker's season of Doctor Who, along with a bunch of Who villians. Tic-Tock from Return to Oz. Robot dog from that one futuristic cop cartoon. (Okay, it was called C.O.P.S., apparently.)

I don't see Data on there, though.

I'll take a shot without peeking at anyone elses answers (I know a few more but can't place them):

Dot (spaceballs), Cryten (Red Dwarf), Bill & Ted (Robot versions), Terminator (Arnold), C3PO (SW), Calculon (Futurama), Bender (Futurama), Generic Robot (crappy SW), Owl (Clash of the Titans), Squidy (The Matrix), Sonny (I robot), Saucer robot (batteries not included), R2-D2 (SW), The Tin Man (Wizard of Oz), Johnny Five (Short Circuit), Maid (Jetsons), ??? (Dr. Who [I don't like the show]).

I feel like I should know more (ie: the TV with the face, etc), but I just can't place em.

The Cylon stood out quite a bit I thought. But then again, it was the 70s one, maybe a lot of people will miss it because of that?

Zeus wrote:??? (Hot chick; see that from somewhere...) - this is the Borg Queen
No way! Borg Queen was a cyborg with a human face/torso. This is a lot less menacing than that, like it was from a sci-fi comedy. Maybe Spaceballs, but I'd need...

Found it. This is Maria from Metropolis. Probably the oldest robot in this whole mess.

Anybody else have any gaps to fill? Ooo, got a handy number guide. I'll post it above.

127 is Robotboy from Robotboy

1 is a golem from castle in the sky
17 is the newer robot from the remake of lost in space
50 is the main character from the CG movie entitled Robots (I have never seen it, so I do not know its name)
52 is Brak's neighbour Thundercleese
53 is Plex from Yo Gabba Gabba
140 is the robot dog from the original battlestar galactica
146 is the Bad Robot from JJ Abram's Bad Robot production company

Yeah, that actually makes sense it's the Metropolis girl.

For Bi-Centennial man, you can tell from the fact that the fact is one big piece for the face. His first form looked more robotic in the face, the second looks more human (as was Andrew's goal). Regardless, it's just being nitpicky, you got the right one

Is it just me or is Ultraman missing?

Basically impossible to get them all without an online, open forum with tons of people. But it's a great, fun pic to look at. I had a few of my friends having a ton of fun with it too.

Still, how the hell can you not put robots like Astroboy or MegaMan on there? I know they're recognizable as hell, but so were all of the Star Wars robots or Cylons. And there are a lot of other anime ones on there, not to mention Astroboy has been in American culture since the 60s.
