Comments:
These types of "TV" robots seemed
to be abundant in the 70's as well as the 80's. They always had some
sort of space scene rotating behind their screen, when I was a kid this
sort of thing always looked important. This one is unique because
of it's brute stature. For a long time I thought this robot was playing
electronic sound effects. I found out that my robot is slightly broken,
and is attempting to play music. The mpeg movies (linked above) are
both versions. I included the correct version for you perfectionists,
and then there is my version. I like the broken sound much more!
