It's too bad whoever bought him at auction didn't donate him to a well-endowed museum where he could be safely displayed and maybe even fired up for special events. At least he is so valuable that he likely isn't sitting in a barn somewhere deteriorating or caught in a storage building fire.

I visited Movieworld back in the 70's. I was astonished to see the original props including the submarine from 'Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea', and the cutaway cars from 'It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World', and so many more! Robby was on display in the back standing in the original 'jeep' from 'Forbidden Planet'. I wanted to take a picture of him, but his head was turned in a bad direction. I was the only visitor at the time and I asked the manager to help me move Robby's head to a more favorable position. We rotated his head a bit and I got the shot. To this day, I can't believe I put my hands on the original prop! It's so ridiculous to learn that people stole parts of Robby over the years. Such desecration of a famous movie prop is unbelievable! Just to see it in person was more than enough.

The LiS Robot B-9 (1960s version) and Robby the Robot are 2 of the most iconic robots ever designed. They are certainly the most memorable designs of the 1950s and 1960s. My favorite robot design is still R2-D2 but I've always appreciated his forebears. PS -- Is it just me, or do Japanese designers have some of the best design aesthetics for robots? Astro Boy, the RX-78 Gundam, Mazinger Z, Tetsujin #28, the Evangelion units, the Valkyrie from Macross, etc. These are all fantastic designs, some of them being contemporaries with Robby -- and he's nearly old enough to collect Social Security!

I visited the Science Fiction Museum when Robby was housed there in the '70's. At the time, there were no other people except for the manager. I asked if I could get a picture of Robby, but the head was turned at a bad angle. Together, we turned his head a bit and I got the picture. (I took nothing off of Robby!) Quite an experience.

I was lost in Los Angeles a while back, and saw Robby on Skid Row. It was a sad sight, as he was drinking cheap motor oil, and was leaking all over the sidewalk. He was also missing one of his arms. Rumor has it that he sold it to buy more oil. That was 25 years ago, and I’ve heard that he was recycled into DVDs of “The Forbidden Planet.”

I loved this story. Robby and B9 are my favorite classic robots. I have talking figures of both. B9 from 20ish years ago. KB toys I think. Pull back wheels spring arms and moves when activated. Either a button or light sensor, which startled me every time it pops on! Danger Danger! Needs some gear repares, but I bought a big bag of random toy gears on eBay that should fix him up.. But Robby was at Wal-Mart 6 -7 years ago. With the Iron giant and Godzilla. Which I passed on. He walks and talks and flashes lights. B9 is shorter but they make great display pieces.

Robby must have been the first movie robot to be thought of as a real character, not just a nearly mindless clanking automaton typical of that movie era. Plus his design is top- notch and beautiful, and has stood the test of time like his "cousin" robot from Lost In Space.

There is another robot I really like and never see any info on. This robot is from an obscure Russian sci Fi movie titled "Voyage to a prehistoric planet" in the US, in 1962.. The robot's name is John. Great robot, with a design as distinctive as Robby or The Robot from Lost in Space. Please! Could you do a segment on him. He deserves to be known, appreciated, and have a place in the Robot Hall of Fame.

I thought it was star trek .So many ideas that Gene used for star trek . In 1970s . I love Forbidden planet with all my heart. I love Robbies scenes and very different score for the film . The underground Knell Technology just blew me as a kid and not seeing the knell species was a master shoke . I have seen Forbidden planet on huge screen incredible experience. Always watch Forbidden planet once a year part of my science fiction movie season .

Investment and childhood nostalgia. If someone bought it for $5 million in 2017, someone will likely pay $10 million or more when it comes up for auction again a decade from now. Also a lot of tech millionaires and billionaires probably love bragging to some of their wealthy tech friends that Robby is standing in their foyer, or that a model of the Enterprise D from the show is hanging in their great room.

Robby has always been a part of a film greater than the sum of its parts. Without Ann Francis, Robby is “simply a machine.” I first watched Forbidden Planet on Channel 9 broadcast from New York on Channel 9 Million Dollar Movie; the film was shown every night for a week. The impression it made was subliminal. More than fifty years later, I took pen to paper and wrote to Ann Francis. The theme of my letter was about her character Alta, how it affected me as a then 8 year old, and the difference she made in her acting and performance compared to the usual ’50’s screaming females. What was most striking is that she responded in writing. For the next ten years we corresponded. Each letter she wrote to me from Santa Barbara became an extension of the real message of Forbidden Planet. Just as Alta was clear and concise, Ann’s letters were in her own strong handwriting. She included pictures with Robby at the Academy. I’m not equipped with the writing skills to describe the feeling Anns letters meant to me. It was as if I was on Altair 4 with all the knowledge of the Krell every time one of her letters appeared in my mailbox. Yes, I understand she was an actress. But, if you look at all her work, she possessed a spirit that was so striking, so vulnerable, and so beautiful it’s no wonder Robby never shined so much without her.

Also how noisy he is..( no dialog recorded while he was running). Also MGM made lots of spares and a big storage box, so restoration was a bit easier. Much easier than the Time Machine Prop.

I love the robots Robby and B-9 ! They are part of my childhood until now. I have good plastic models of both of them. They are a small treasure for me. Thanks for this video !

You are dead right about Robby in episode 9 " Battle of the Robots". Lost in Space let Robby be evil and he had a great musical score. His cheesy alien boss was TV believable and Robby worked the whole cast ragged. Television at it's shining best.

There was a messed-up version of Robby in one of the original Twilight Zone episodes - Uncle Simon? - an old man builds a robot duplicate of himself.

Thank you for this video. I think the lines given to Robbie the Robot to say in, “Forbidden Planet” was a precursor to how next gen Artificial General intelligence (AGI) would probably lead a futuristic robot that can learn, make comparison decisions, and have a speaking style that people would be comfortable with.

The way Robbie walks is just fascinating to watch with his arms pivoting up and down. The mechanical relays clicking in and out when he's 'thinking' look so stylish. Love him!

In 2020 I bought a walking, talking plastic Robbie from Walmart for $20! He’s about 14” tall and will play 2 one line quotes from the film by the original voice actor and a short clip from the soundtrack. Looks great. He’s awesome!!
