Retro Robot

Um, Robby the Robot is NOT the Lost in Space robot.

His name is ROBOT.

Robby the Robot is the other classic robot, predating Robot by many years. He premiered in Forbidden Planet (1956) and went on to appear in a couple of B-movies and a Twilight Zone episode (or was it Outer Limits?) Either way, the very cool, lifesize, $24,000 robot being offered on the linked website is the ultra cool ROBOT from Lost in Space.

Don't call him "Robby."
