Learned about Florence Nightingale on one of my tapes and did a book report on her. All these years later, I'm a nurse. Thanks 2XL!

I don't remember this at all but my brother did, but he couldn't remember the name of it. So I fed Grok AI on X my brother's recollections: "Plastic toy robot sold in the 1990s constructed of rounded white plastic with eyes behind a blue visor. Big round head. It rolled around and responded to your questions and gave silly answers. It moved its arms and legs and moved on rolling wheels” The toy robot you're describing sounds very similar to the 2-XL Robot. Although it was originally introduced in the late 1970s by Mego Corporation, it continued to be sold in various forms into the 1980s and 1990s, with versions that match your description. The 2-XL was known for its ability to roll around, its big round head, and its interactive features where it would respond to questions with pre-recorded, often humorous, answers. It had a white plastic body with a blue visor over the eyes, and it could move its limbs. It was equipped with wheels for movement and used cassette tapes to provide its responses. This matches the design and functionality you've described, although exact models might have varied slightly over the years.

My favorite Johnny Castaway moment is when Johnny loses his pants and is nude and a boat with a family on it comes whizzing by and assume he's some sort of sex offender freak and cover their kids eyes and leave Johnny there

I loved this toy

Scot Maslen is another monster employed by the bbc

Awww I remember this! I feel like a 6 year old kid again ❤

I loved 2XL, but he is more of an asshole than I remember, and I love it more 😊

Gonna set this whole video as my ringtone and ask a friend to phone me while I'm in a crowded place just to mess with as many minds as possible

Bruh. Bruh.... That pose, That sass, That free-form flow Bruh... 2XL was black and trans

In 2014, a coworker surprised me with a 2XL for my birthday. Nothing in this world has ever been right since then.

If Teddy Ruxpin and Furby had an early baby

even the c64 looks better than the atari st

commodore 64 does it as well as amiga, especilly for the sound! amazing!

"Mom, can we buy an Amiga so we can watch that cool bouncing ball demo?" "No, we have it at home on our Sinclair QL" The Amiga ball demo at home: 0:01

My neighbor broke mine after two weeks of christmas and I never used it again :(

Sounds like the tape deck is spinning a bit slow. I miss this little guy.

Voice is running a bit slow. Might need new batteries. Run at 1.2 speed to hear more accurately

I'm impressed that the Commodore 64 version holds up so well against the more powerful Atari and Amiga.

i'd be so amused if they managed to get him in to voice a character as a throw back

I had 2xl as a kid but don't remember him being jewish..

i got one as a hand-me-down, never had the tape to play the game, so it was just a tape player with no FFW. aslo didnt have the plug so i hardly got to use it as it ate C batteries like candy.

2:17 He told the cannibal student joke wrong. The kid wasn't expelled because he burnt up the teacher, he was expelled because he BUTTERED UP the teacher.

I noticed that the vibration is different with every ringtone.

This is a different voice than I remember. This one is lower pitched.

Amiga was the only one using multitasking ;)

My little brother and I had one of these little guys. We also found out that if you put any other cassette in him and pressed button 3 or 4 it would play the tape in reverse

Ours is still working.

Looks exactly like the one I had, but the voice pitch is off. I'm in the UK, I don't know if that effects how it was distributed over here. The clips you can find of the old one from the 70s, that's the voice I remember, but it was in the body of this one!

What tape is this?

I'm 36... What's with this age and suddenly rediscovering their 2xL. I seriously don't remember him talking that oddly tho. Like how his inflections are all disjointed. But I remember that laugh and those sound effects! This was my favorite toy as well. I had all the tapes too. I still think it's pretty incredible tech

Man I wish we got an Isometric GTA and I think the perfect opportunity would have been when GTA Advance was released. It could have been sort of a demake for GTA 3 just like how Max Payne for Gameboy Advance was a demake of it’s PS2 port and it was isometric. I’ve never been a fan of the top down style personally I just don’t like the look. Isometric is perfect.

Never noticed super Jewish mel brooks was the voice of my favorite childhood toy 😂😂😂

2XL sounds like an extra from Goodfellas

There was a Boink demo for the Atari 8-bit and a FujiBoink! version. Even a version for the venerable Atari 2600!
