Geez, too late the hero?LoL
I Was busy doing some minor repairs on my PC, still having problems with my monitor!:(
Well I love some from the cartoons like The Transformers (later made into movie), Voltes V, Mekanda Robot, Go-bots, Astroboy (original version) and Gundam too.
For the Transformers I love Hound, Wheeljack and Prowl. I just forgot the name of the robot from the movie Short Circuit, love him and those cute little alien robots from Batteries Not Included film..

Yep, there's a movie with that title. You should search for that or atleast get to know what the movie was about, I'm sure you'll be more surprised if you get to watch the movie.
As for Daimos, I just don't like where that robot's finshing move comes from (the Double Blizzard). LoL

why is it titled "batteries not included" raijin?? i've read the plot in wikipedia. is it because fix-its don't really need batteries?

Well, you probably don't see much of me because I don't create many discussions, I prefer responding. But I also respond only the topics I am interested in, and we seem to have few common interests. Trust me, if you'd be interested in "football" or "Manchester United" you'd get bored of seeing me around.
If you want to know a bit more about Daneel R. Olivaw, I reccomend this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R._Daneel_Olivaw.
Unfortunately, Isaac Asimov's "Robot" and "Foundation" novels were not made into films, do you can't see any movies with him. "I, Robot" and "The Bicentennial Man", two movies made after Asimov's Robot Short Stories don't include Daneel, because the action described happens prior Daneel's creation.

Good timing secretbear. Right now my favorite is
an old series. Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot.
I laugh my a** off watching it. It was so low budget
but I think it's totally awesome. I love it.

Of course it's Japanese, silly. They imported
it to the U.S. and dubbed it in English. I can't
stop laughing. As a professional creative I have
always appreciated the Japanese's creativity.
Great stuff. LOL

Does Dr Who count? Can I include Daleks in your discussion? Go on! I know they are scary, horrible creatures but they are also fun to watch, have great roles in the storylines and I always fondly remember them scaring me as a child and having to hide behind the sofa when they came on! Exterminate, exterminate.....

Optimus Prime rules! But having said that, Voltron was a one time favourite also and maye bs silver hawks ... althought they are partly robots ... Robocop was also a unique idea ... and it did sound facinating in that time frame ...

Actually, my fave mecha would be the Dragonar Unit D-01 from Mobile Armor Dragonar from Sunrise. I also like Justice Gundam from Gundam Seed, he can go bat-crazy when he mounts on his hover platform contraption. And My favorite mecha would be the Dolgiran, Space Sheriff Gavan's Personal Spaceship.
