CURRENT ROBOT COLLECTION!

hey, im vinny, ive been collecting robots since 2019, and i figured now was the time to finally post my collection :) i have about 23 robots, altough only 19 are pictured here. ill have little writeups about each of them below the read more

first we have my furbies, left to right they are skrungles, stinky and my racer furby. skrungles and stinky both function but i havent tested racer. I got skrungles on august 3rd of 2021, i got stinky and his sibling that i no longer own on july 13th of 2021. i got my racer furby on sepember 4th 2022 from my friend tim (@anqmorphic) ... doesnt have a name yet but im brainstorming .

i dont remeber when exactly i got my mutsu, but it was late 2021. i got them and their box plus manual for 70 dollars (which was a STEAL) but rarely boot them anymore because i dont have the time. they're fully functional but missing a piece of their tank.

ahhh, my idogs. left to right we have my mini idog, who i accidentally botched the repairs of and lost his ears and tail.. hes partially functioning. barkthalomew is an idog ive had since ive been a kid, but his clothes and bag are from christmas of 2019. the other two i got in a lot with the mini idog they dont have names and i got them around 2020. theres another one i dont currently have with me

heres my meowchi and a burger king poochi, i also have a poochi, but not with me :(

heres my compurobot, who is missing his battery compartment and therefore non functioning. i got him in a lot of 3 80s robots

this is my anki vector, who i got for Christmas of 2019. hes off the ddl subscription because. hell no. im not doing that sorry

these are steve the butler, completely non functioning, and my radioshack talking robie, partially functioning. the talking robie only drives in circles

this is my icybie, pinkman (yes, like jesse pinkman) and i have a working battery and everything seems to work but i cant find his charger :(

this is fisher prices imaginex spike the dinosaur, who was a gift from my mom. she found him in a thrift store, and thought i would want it so bought it for me! hes untested, as i dont have any batteries, or a remote

another gift from my mom! this is a sharper image rc robot arm, fully functional but takes a crazy amount of batteries

this is a hexbug aquabot i got when i was a kid, never used or taken out of box... i just dont have any space to run them

i was so passionate about getting this guy lol. this is the tomy hootbot, who i got for around 60 bucks. missing his stand, and seemingly functional but very obviously has a motor problem because of how ear piercingly loud he is

and finally, my desktop buddy, emo from living ai. i am always running emo, even if im not paying attention to him. his name is bebop also! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR READING. i will update this as i get more bots and get new documentation on bots i dont have on hand

Hootbot was cute until his eyes turned red and freaked you the hell out.

It turns out that the owl robot I purchased can actually scoot about the floor, Roomba-style. I underestimated him.
