Morbius Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 Beautiful site you have Astrogalaxy! *Altaira has Hermit Crabs as well, however they hibernate more than we see them, they have a heat-lamp and under-tank heater and all the things you say they should have, anything she can do to see them more? They're in a fair size reptile tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robothunter Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 The majority of your robots all seem destructive in nature at first glance, Mike. Might I suggest they take up a soothing, relaxing hobby to bring doen their stress levels. Like smoking for example! God knows I was a lot cooler when I smoked. Really took the edge off everthing. LOL! Buy 'em all a couple cases of Newports each and watch things calm down. It's all good, trust me. ;) ..... :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morbius Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 Pat, then they would all be part of the gang of 'neekoteen 'bots' wouldn't they? Maybe they'd prefer a little tea? :lol:Actually I do prefer the TV robots to the violent fellas, but I suppose that after a hard day at the office punching keyboards and filing paperwork I just have to bust loose and shoot some rounds utilizing some D-cells!! :ph34r: :lol: We all have our vices!! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tavibo Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Hi everyone,I have joined this forum in the hope someone can help me. I have been looking for a robot that i had when i was a child, i was really pleased when i saw a picture of it on this site! Its the white version of 'the atmotic robot tommy'. A while ago on ebay i found one that looked almost identical to the black one but it let out steam, i brought it but it wasn't the one i was looking for. The reason i am searching for it is i would love to hear its voice again, the black version i found on ebay talks but it is a different voice to one i had when i was a child. I am sure the white version shown earlier in this thread is the same version i had, i would be really, really grateful if someone could point me to some recordings of this robot talking, it would bring back some happy memories! Thanks .... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morbius Posted June 10, 2008 Author Share Posted June 10, 2008 "I am the atomic powered robot...please give my best wishes to evvverrybody"!!! I believe is his phrase. He's in lockdown in a cabinet right now, next time he's released I'll give him a run. I think he also has some siren type sound-effects preceeding his lines. I picked him up about 1982. Could have been a Magic Mike in black that you picked up, they blow smoke and flash eyes and I believe have the same record in them.Welcome, tavibo to Alphadrome!Shouldn't be difficult for you to find one of these white versions, post an ad in the ADS section here on Alphadrome, someone may be able to help.

tavibo Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Hi Morbius,Thanks for confirming his phrase, 1982? wow...i can remember playing with it so clearly. Yes, the one i have is a magic mike, it says that on its front. The words it speaks are the same however, it sounds different accent to the white. I'll post an ad and see if anyone might have a spare one, it was so nice just seeing a picture of it again after these years. Thanks for your help. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckalkhof Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 This was/is one of my all-time favourites.Zeroids were my favorite toy when I was child. I managed to put together a nice set of all three, including Zogg with (fingers in the air making quotes ala Austin powers) his "laser" cannon.

Morbius Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 Great set there Chalkof! Nice to see 'em in their cases and cards, makes them much more complete. My original Zobor I received at Xmas 1968 in the cardboard printed box and Zintar with his header card. The cardboard was the first thing to go on Xmas morning. For those not familiar with these, they have karate-chop action which I had a ball with and 'bomb' throwing action where you'd draw the cup hand backward, push the opposite hand and they'd throw their 'bombs' an amazing distance.

Phil R Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Mike, love that Zogg! I don't think I have ever seen that one at a show. I had the take apart Alien in Mint condition in mint box. I've regretted selling it. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckalkhof Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Mike, love that Zogg! I don't think I have ever seen that one at a show. I had the take apart Alien in Mint condition in mint box. I've regretted selling it. <_<Thanks! I've seen Zoggs around, but the "laser" seems to be very hard to find in one piece. The "laser" has a bulb in it that lights the plastic and creates a light pipe effect - Looks pretty cool. Zogg actually powers the "laser" from small screws in his hands that conduct to copper plates in the "laser". Sorry about the " ". But I just cant get the Austin Powers reference out of my mind . I loved the Zeroid Alien also. I sold mine and have not found a nice replacement yet. I should just learn to keep my stuff.Oh, BTW, my name is Carl not Mike (if you were referring to me in the Zogg reference). Have a good one!
