Well if it had taken only 30 secs in the 80's, they should be a lot faster now.
....no...wait a minute. What again is Astro's birthdate?
Oh, not again...I'm getting dizzy... :blink:

I wonder how they gonna place his artificial skin on him. This may be a difficult task.

That's true. He's very easily to upset sometimes. He once broke with his nose through the videophone-pane because of his temperament.

By the way, his name in the dubbed 80's version is Inspector Gumshoe. I've been told that gumshoe is a slang-word for detectives .

Exactly . Our hero needs to have a mum and a dad. Who else will give him new heads when he's dented his old ones over and over again?

I got my 80's DVD's from ebay, I think the seller was nekoDVD. It's in japanese with english/chinese subs.
I'm pretty sure there are no DVD's with english dubs around yet .

B) If nobody gives a veto I'll be Daddy Walrus. I like 'beard old men' anyway .

We need someone to be Dr Elefun/Dr O'Shay

If you ask me, this role would fit perfect for either jeffbert or DrFrag .

I'll go for Lightray . To me, he's the coolest robot (besides Astro of course).
I too would like to be invisible for one day, but if possible without spraypaint on my legs .
