Is anyone else here as blown away by Robert's abilities as I am? Here is an almost fully-functional android (human-shaped robot) that can hear and understand...
Strange though it seems, we're actually looking at real-life Roberts in the very near future. Wouldn't that be neat? I've always wondered if Robert was...
But Zoonie gave Robert commands in I think it's Drama at Space City. "Full power, full power." Robert didn't listen to Jonathon in that episode, but he read...
Good Point! Robert seems to be able to block some commands and accept others when the issuer is not Steve, Matt, or Venus. It may be that he is sensitive to...
As I understand it, (from watching other episodes), Robert is unique in his abilities. (As well as his appearance!) There were lots of other robots in the...
Another good point, Larry! Why is it that only Dr. Smith could reprogram him? Now, in LIS the movie, Will did it, but he also rebuilt him. Yes, a flight of...

Yes, Don, In most of the comics (the one Gold Key comic and the Annuals), Matt was portrayed as an older, wiser figure. (Sometimes a very dynamic one, too!)...
Hi, I agree CMDR Zero should have been nicer to Matt - but he was even worse to poor LT Ninety! Mind you, in Matt's case I think he was in danger of acquiring...
Oooooo! Nice topic, Larry but you forgot to mention in your list of Robert's attributes, his apparent ability to administer medical treatment upon himself (is...
Hi Mrs. G., I like your point about Robert and Zoonie being flip sides of the same coin. Wouldn't that be a toot? To see a coin with Robert on one side and...
Actually, that's a good way to describe the level of sophistication of both Zoonie and Robert. Both are intelligent in their own ways, and both can mimick...
And I so do love it when Zoonie makes Robert blow his stack! ; ) Cheryl. Larry Fugate <jfugate@...> wrote: Actually, that's a good way to describe the...
Any of you here remember that famous 1984-themed Macintosh commercial from the Super Bowl of...well, 1984? Well, according to Wikipedia, the "Big Brother"...
Hi folks, I just got an email ad from Monsters In Motion in the US. They say that Product Enterprise have cancelled their proposed range of Captain Scarlet ...
Hi, The announcement that Product Enterprise have cancelled their proposed Captain Scarlet models brings to mind a disturbing situation in the toy and model...
Hi Robin, Probably both the movie and the Captain Scarlett CGI! I'm with you - I hope it's just a lull, too. Can't wait to see that picture! Go XL5, Cheryl. ...
Hi Cheryl, We uploaded the article on the scratch built jetmobile. You can see it on the Unity City website. http://unitycity.sfdaydreams.com It's in the...
Amazing!!! The details are so cool!! Thanks, Cheryl. Robin Day <ra.day@...> wrote: Hi Cheryl, We uploaded the article on the scratch built jetmobile. ...
Hi Robin, That's a fantastic model; what an achievement. Thanks to Duncan for letting us see it and also for the detailed account of how he went about it....
Hi Mrs Gooner, I don't think Duncan is a group member so I'll pass on any messages relating to his article. I can tell you that he made those great boots. I...
Hi again Robin, and thanks for your response. It would be great to hear about how Duncan built his Steve Zodiac. I hope that you can persuade him to do...
Hey Keryn, Now I don't believe that my brother's model making hobby was a bad thing! He's into other things now, but as a kid it was all about models. I...

Hi Mike, All I've seen are DVD sets, lunch boxes (I have a knock-off and an original), Fireball ship figures, and the Zoonies I have. As I wrote before, I...
Hi Mike, Merchandise-wise, I would say that many fans of Fireball XL5 are hungry for good quality models from the show - the jetmobile for example - but the...
Thanks for seeking us out to get our input! I would LOVE to see XL5 merchandise! I am a modeler myself, and would like to see plastic models of XL5 herself...
