Robot? Cyborg? Or uncanny harbinger of those creepy earset things you see people wearing around these days?

He was the Mr. Clean of Bespin.

"Lobot has become synonymous with dependability"!

He projected a most fascinating blankness. He was the Star Wars universe's version of Thin White Duke-era Bowie.

I like to think that in the alternate universe where Christopher Walken is Han Solo, Donald Pleasance plays Lobot.

Shit, I've just wasted a large portion of the afternoon on that Star Wars database thingy reading about how Chewbacca dies and who Palpatine leant the dark side from how many fucking levels Cloud City has (392) and that kind of thing.

Still, less of a waste of time than actually reading the novels, I guess.

Yes, Cloud City has 392 levels exclusively for fucking. That Lando has one hell of a libido.

The man who played Lobot, John Hollis, passed away last year.

He also played the wheelchair-bound psuedo-"Blofeld" from the opening sequence of _For Your Eyes Only_
