Bad Guy Day with Bots: ED-209, King Joe, Terminator, Imperializer & chibi Mechagodzilla!
B-9 Class M-3 General Utility Non-Theorizing Environmental Control Robot joins other 50s & 60s style bots for New Bot Tuesday!
Enforcement Droid 209 comes from RoboCop (1987). ED-209 is incompetently designed and hilariously deadly. New Bot Monday has never been scarier.
Buddies! New Bot Wednesday includes BB-8 meeting Artoo.
Time to go to work. #bb8
Data joins the bots! One of the most asked-about absences from my collection has been added. #StarTrek
New Bot Monday! Planet Robo Danguard Ace (惑星ロボ ダンガードA (エース) who I met in 1978 in the Philippines and became a Shogun Warrior in the US when I got home. Great design.
Seattle bound in the morning. See you in a week bots!
I consider buying Mazinger Z & Great Mazinger every time I see these but they’re not my style. From yesterday.
Captain BB-8 by local artist Mark Kessler. Lovely sculpture showing at Villanous Lair!
New Bot Thursday! It’s Plex from Yo Gabba Gabba who I learned about from Godson Archer. Let’s go to work!
Really not a vacation until I take a selfie with a robot. #bb-8
Christmas New Bot Tuesday! Everyone’s favorite transdimensional robot cat Doreamon!
Cute bots are cute. Who’s cutest?
This #Sparki robot at #sdmakerfaire was the cutest off-the-shelf sensing programmable bot.
Selfie with Giant Robot because I’m me. #sdmakerfaire
Even Daggits dream of Earth. New robot Tuesday starring Muffit II.
I would totally watch this tv show. Networks listen up. #Baymax #GirlRobot
The Astro Boys at Meltdown yesterday were wonderful. What’s the collective noun for Mighty Atoms?
Big-O wins “largest forearms” contests all over.
He winks! Rotary phone chest! Teddy bear decal! Phone handsets for arms! CUTEST NEW BOT EVER.
New Bot Day! This is the Big-O mechs from the 1999 anime that is named for him. He’s lovely!
New bot! Maria, or rather the “False Maria” from 1927’s classic silent film “Metropolis.” Liberties were taken with this rendering of her design.
Moving out of the temporary digs today and into the repainted and recarpeted office.
Temporary digs.
My Ultramen celebrate today’s birthday of Eiji Tsuburaya! Kudos to Google for honoring him!
Aguacates y los robots en el almuerzo.
My nephew has cool toys.
With a robot Peacock.
“Affirmative, Master” says K-9 in Union Square NYC. Thursday is new bot day!
It’s not a vacation unless I can get a selfie with a robot.
New Wind Up Robot family member! I don’t have a name but cost $5.25 as priced by Suzi so we’ll call him or her Suzi-525.
New robot, Ms. Marvel, lagoon in Carlsbad, Golden Hour. Nearly home.
Leah bought me this fellow ❤️
Seattle, I came for a wedding but managed to look at robots too. Farewell, it was cool.
Today needed more color. Here it is.
Instant Hand Sanitizer is not a robot.
It’s a four robot week: Mazinger, Mekanda (latest!), Grendizer & Combattler.
Mechander Robo 合身戦隊メカンダーロボ (Gasshin Sentai Mekandā Robo) & heirloom cherry tomatoes.
GRENDIZER and MAZINGER go Radio Raheem/Night of the Hunter for you. LOVE/HATE.
March has been non-stop bots! In September I backed Kickstarter Project: Vulkira, an original design vinyl giant robot. He arrived yesterday and joins my collection today!
Crimson Typhoon (2013) & Grendizer (1975) are here to save the day!
Astro Boy (Tetsuwan Atomu) sleeping yesterday morning in Little Tokyo.
Today began with a new bot from my favorite person, @leah7peah to wish me Happy Birthday!
I found WALL-E in St. George at Comics Plus.
It’s a big week for new bots! New Mazinger Z & Aphrodite A. Bigger & Deffer!
Feliz Cumpleaños
Happy Early Birthday To Me. Acquisitions from a great long day yesterday.
My other not-purchased bots from Frank & Son today.
Too tall. Missing antenna. But really really really nice Combatra. Did not buy.
My bots love The Red Velvet Spoon Case @dairyqueen sent. Happy Valentine’s Day! #BreakTheCliché
New Bot Tuesday! “Imperializer” a villain of the Ultraman series. Found at Anime Jungle in L.A.!
New Bot Thursday! Robbie The Robot. 2014 toy from a CLASSIC 1956 robot.
I need a lot of different stuff on my desk this week.
Have a robotic new year!
Christmas was new bot day. Welcome Baymax from Big Hero 6 + cat Mochi. Thanks Leah!
My helper bots this week. It’s been a busy week. Happy Thanksgiving!
These robots fell down because of a stray hacky sack. Chad and I are still terrible (or I am), but we’re better than a month ago!
Fruit & Robots.
Dreadwing & Rusty The Boy Robot are buds this week on the desk.
This week’s bots are pretty tough. I think Gipsy Danger may take a swing at The Big Guy.
King Joe manages my raspberries and strawberries.
Robots and coaster time. Code is hard and I need distractions.
This week’s desk bots are villains. Dreadwing & King Joe. They look at this cupcake monster with skepticism.
Getter Poseidon and Ultraman Cosmos “raise the roof” about the code I wrote this week.
Cookie time.
Getter Poseidon presents Ultraman Cosmos with a hacky sack. (It’s technically a Sipa Sipa but never mind).
“3 Figures, 6 Weapons” sounds like the title of a terrible action movie. I did NOT buy these bots from CVS today.
WALL-E deadlifting a banana. E-306 looks on admiringly.
Combattler V and Giant Robo are pals.
Welcome Astro Boy (Tetsuwan Atomu or Mighty Atom) to my collection! Created by the great Osamu Tezuka in 1952, he’s got heart.
It’s been a fun week with superdeformed Mechagodzilla and Tetsujin-28. Who will be the desk robots next week?
Robot Girl is my favorite. With her mecha she assists me with my headphone cord.
My desk has moved. That means the bots have moved. They’re up in that shelf in the distance–just slightly too out of reach. Gipsy Danger & Girl Robot are hanging with me temporarily until I can figure out if I can stand them being so far away.
Translucent Gundam from #robot4less looks pretty cool lit up.
Me and the boys got Gundams! Being walking distance to #robot4less is awesome.
Wednesday is new Bot day here on the bus. Stowing away is Wall-E.
Old Boy’s Club. (ROBOT-7 joins the crew)
ROBOT-7 is a wind-up tin toy from I think the mid-90s. He’s a replica of an older toy. I love him and he was a surprise gift from my pal Erin aka @missewon … Expect more photos when he joins my toy robot army tomorrow at work! Thanks EW!
Back to school photo of my bots.
Gipsy Danger from Pacific Rim and the little red, silver and yellow fellow join the bot family!
Robotic acquisitions from San Diego Comic Con 2014 #sdcc
Iron Giant toy from Mondo looks great. #sdcc
Giant robot Batman, some random dude, and me with very tired eyes. I swear I feel better than that looks!
Me and a friend. Bidibidibidi.
New Bot Monday for Comic-Con week: Aphrodite A & Mazinger Z. (Created in ~1972)
Container Robot holds yogurt dipped raisins. PET recipiente con forma de Robot pequeño!
Pairs of brothers! (Rightmost is a new acquisition!) Getter 1 bros and Combatra aka Combattler V.
Chōdenji Robo Combattler V! This place is great. Will come back.
I came to the right place.
I got out without purchasing a thing from @ROBOT4LESS But I wanted many of the shiny things.
Helper bots united! Analyzer, HERBIE, & Artoo!
Welcome H.E.R.B.I.E.! (Humanoid Experimental Robot, B-type, Integrated Electronics) debuted 1978 in the Fantastic Four cartoon.
