Wait a minuet...The Dalek has a life form inside, and so does Big Guy. Thats makes them 'power armor' or Mecha, not strictly robots.
Oh, and I found Tom Servo, but where are Crow and Gypse?

I know I should have made a disclaimer. There are also two Cybermen who aren't robots either.

Most of the ones I can name are of 1950s, 60s, 70s and 80s vintage. A lot of the ones that look like they came from cartoons rather than movies or live television draw blanks from me.

Geez, they even have the one from the "Bad Robot" logo.

What were the criteria for inclusion or exclusion? I don't see any comic book characters, or robots from anime series (of course if they'd included the latter, the image would be about 400 yards wide).

Well, they also only included one or two from Star Wars, which could have also bloated things all the hell. Still, it's a pretty broad mix of robots.

I think I got around 51. There were some I recognize, but can't put a name to. Still, there were some surprises in there, like the robot from Tripping the Rift, the Android icon, one of the robots from Heavy Metal, the Clockwork Man from Return to Oz... Quite a few, "oh, hey!" moments.

Sigh, I was only about the ID about 40 of them plus 5 or so 'I think but not sure'
