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!

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 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.
