Robby is built by Dr. Morbius from plans left in an alien computer system. The result is a far more advanced robot than any other ever created by mankind.
Got drunk at the induction dinner, tho.

Robby looks like ROBOT MONSTER for real. (Robot Monster is my favorite.)

You can nominate your favorite robot here: http://www.robothalloffame.org/nominate.php

Several nominations that aren't technically robots - Robocop and the Daleks, for example.
I am glad this exists,though.

Packbot & Talon need to be in there like yesterday

I was reading in New Scientist today how some of the army operators doing EOD and minesweeping with their robots get all choked up when one of the things gets blown up in the line of duty and even try to reconstitute their old buddy with spare parts. One (1) refurbished mechanoid veteran please
and at least one anecdote of a guy who's taken his packbot fishing with him

While part of me wants to say that there's no way dr. ben could be replaced by an automaton the cold and scientific behaviorist recognizes that there's not exactly a trillion lines of code there

i skimmed that post at first & thought you were saying that the robots will get choked up when one of their robot buddies dies and try to rebuild them with spare parts which had me bugging out for a minute

Jeez, you'd think the robot hall of fame website would have updated in the last two years, but I guess not.
