Paid Members CuckedByMenry Posted September 21, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 21, 2011 Gobots, Kryten and even a robot as obscure as B.B from Wes Craven's Deadly Friend. Fuck Wall-E, indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nostalgia Nonce Posted September 21, 2011 Author Paid Members Share Posted September 21, 2011 I'm actually getting frustrated with it now. There's plenty on there that I don't know - which I'm fine with - but also quite a lot that I do recognize, but can't remember where from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kendal mint cake Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 I marked for Kryten. Â That's the first time I've said marked in about 8 years. Does anyone say "I marked" anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeg_&_The_Heads Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Metal Mickie thought he would be even to obscure for this thought I was the only person who even remembered him  Can't spot VICKI from Small Wonder though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Nostalgia Nonce Posted September 22, 2011 Author Paid Members Share Posted September 22, 2011 I marked for Kryten. That's the first time I've said marked in about 8 years. Does anyone say "I marked" anymore? Yep, both sarcastically and genuinely. Metal Mickie thought he would be even to obscure for this thought I was the only person who even remembered him I would have thought that most English people born before 1980 would remember Metal Micky. He was considered quite a big deal at the time.  If you want obsure, there's the baby robot from The Goodies, and Mark 13 from Hardware.  I'm pleased to see the big dustbin looking one at the very top right, as I used to watch that when I was about 3 or 4, although I've absolutely no idea what the show was called. It was one of the programs that for some inexplicable reason (to my young self) stayed in black and white, even after we bought the new TV and everything else (except for King of the Rocket Men) changed into colour.

Loki Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 It's pretty comprehensive - they have the little dudes from Silent Running, the one from Black Hole and even The Saturn V robot. I haven't spotted any of the ABC Warriors or Walter the Droid, so perhaps the artist isn't a fan of 2000AD. Â Also, to be anal, there are at least 2 that aren't robots - the Henry Hoover, and I reckon that's Woody Allen dressed as a robot butler from Sleeper.

Paid Members Nostalgia Nonce Posted September 22, 2011 Author Paid Members Share Posted September 22, 2011 The ABC Robot as it appeared in the Judge Dredd movie is in there, and both VINCENT and Maximillian from The Black Hole are in there. Â Technically, old school Cybermen (humanoids in life preservation suits) and Daleks (mutants in an armoured vehicle) aren't robots, either. You're right about it being Woody Allen. The Tinman from Wizard of Oz is debatable, as he started out human, but gradually replaced every part of himself with metal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nostalgia Nonce Posted September 22, 2011 Author Paid Members Share Posted September 22, 2011 I didn't watch Small Wonder (mainly as I don't think it was ever broadcast in my region) or Supergran, but I was aware of them (and had the Supergran computer game). I'm pretty sure Metal Micky made guest appearances on other shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
