Good Robot / Bad Robot



Good Robot: AstroBoy.

Flying around, saving humans, saving robots. Fighting villains, fighting oppression. The last good reason to get up before 8am on a saturday morning to watch BBC2, or at least set the TIVO to record it. Great robot.

Bad Robot: 7-Zark-7.
Rolling to and fro between generic walls of flashing lights, 7-Zark-7's sole role in Battle Of The Planets was to fill some badly-animated time where the violence and plot from the original Japanese 'Gatchaman' used to be. Terrible robot.
