[@chris-hayes]

There are some interesting nuances as well. The word "goblin" has roots in the French word, "gobelin", which at one point referred to the devil. Also, this whole scene is likely a reference to the song "the devil went down to Georgia", where a boy faces off with the devil in a fiddle battle and wins a golden violin.

I think Dan Castellaneta voicing Robot Devil really shows his growth as a voice actor. He was never bad, but it feels as though a lot of his original voices for the Simpsons sounded really similar (they were all different characters, but you could usually tell it was Dan doing the voices. Homer, Grampa, Willie and Mayor Quimby for example all have different ways of speaking and accents, but all sound like they're the same person). The Devil sounds COMPLETELY different from the other roles he voiced on the Simpsons, so it's impressive that he adapted so well

Gold is extreemly soft. Irs realy not hard to bend or deform a pure gold object. Actually, fun fact. Gold is so soft, it can becstretched to effectivly 1 atom thick wire before breaking. Which, together with its corosion resistance, makes it perfect for microelectronics.

[@andrewcosmicanimations8709]

He likely made them as backups after that incident. Also, he may be playing with some sort of rules, like he cannot replace or alter his own body without it getting destroyed in the first place. He is somewhat magical, forming contracts and pens from thin air, it's not completely out of the question he is divine in some sort of way, and is required to follow some untold laws.
