    I thought it was weird, but that was the name with the photo.

    #5 almost looks like John the Robot from VOYAGE TO THE PREHISTORIC PLANET, but it's not quite the same. Maybe they repurposed him from (or for) another movie. Found him here.

    139 is Sam the Robot from Sesame Street. I didn't even know they had robots on the Street.

    Yep, I got that one. Also 54, 55 and 68, plus found Mandroid's name for The Eliminators.

    Oh good. I'd found the movie title but couldn't zero in on the name.

    Where's Wall-E?

    Looking at websites for 1950s movie robots is turning up a lot of them. I've seen this picture a lot, which is obviously #12, but I haven't found its name or origin yet.

    Oh, duh. The malfunctioning robot from Zathura (directed by Jon Favreau) is #28. Looked right at it a half-dozen times before realizing it.

    I *knew* a Heartbeeps robot had to be in there! Sure enough, 159. I was expecting either Bernadette Peters or Andy Kaufmann. Well played, sir.

    Okay, all these have been added.

    I also added some last night: Teletubbies, Wallace & Gromit, the Chuck Jones robots, etc.

    For the same reason it doesn't include Iron Giant, MechaGodzilla and Crow T. Robot.

    111 is the robot from the Green Cross Code PSAs with Dave Prowse. I can't remember its name, though, if indeed it had one.
    Looks like he didn't. We never had cool things like this in the US.
  12. I love the Euro servers. So far I've gotten names like Stray Dog, Varmint and Ironsmith.

    Well, I'm not going to buy something non-refundable if I can't see the price. Don't know what beta has to do with it, since this is on the regular servers.
  14. I really like #2. Good stuff!

    I'll update mine later once more people have added some, then you can take it over once I head down to DC.

    I have no idea. Give me a hint.

    Where's Wall-E?

    We're cross-posting. I added some, too, such as Huey and Dewey and the cleaning bot from Wall-E. Also Muffit from BSG and Dr. Theopolis from Buck Rogers.

  20. The rationale is pretty simple: you have to farm iTrials to get stuff, so you might as well farm the easiest one.

    If they want people to play Keyes, they either have to increase its rewards or decrease the rewards for the others. More difficult fix is to completely re-jigger it. In the middle is the once-a-week option, or once-every-48-hours or something.

    That's cool. A floaty thing like the invention table is fine by me. I just don't like trainers as tailors.

    I mean, I *know* why they're doing it: to get impulse-buy money from F2P players. Doesn't mean I have to like it.

    And if this change *does* keep people from training up, doesn't that run the risk of turning people off of the game? A non-player is a non-payer.

  22. Okay, nice reference to the classic joke. Thanks for the info.

    Follow up:
    Why doesn't it tell you the price anywhere?

    Oh god, it totally does. I keep telling people that show is science fiction and they always say, "Nuh-uh! That's all real!"

    Maybe from now on we should only ut our guesses and just have someone update the full list occasionally.
    I'll do that for a couple more days. I have to leave the country soon, so it'll be hard to update.
  25. Zombie Age. DC is already dead, they just don't know it.
