Some of the charm is missing, though. In the 80s version, Uran comes out of her Oblong box* and after assulting Ochanomizu's nose, performs a Shirly Temple - like tap dance, accompanied by a cute song and music. *It does indeed resemble a coffin, except that its hindge is on the wrong side, and ...

Uran is disguised as Astro to fool the magician Gore. Not only does she have a spare pair of Astro's briefs, but his boots and head cast as well! I am certain that we mentioned this some time recently. I distinctly remember referring to the fake 'hair'... OK, it was the first post u...

I just viewed the new series' 13th episode; and although I could understand little dialogue, I did understand that Uran who makes her debut here, is very naughty. Just as she was depicted in the 80s series, so is she here: she has an eye for mischief, but a heart of gold. :D Thank Dr. Ochanomizu...

t isn't really a "new" look for Atlas, rather, a return to his original design from the original 60's version. The episode became "[b]Dante's Infernal Machine" when brought to America, and if I recall correctly (I may not, of course) he was renamed "Ferno".[/b] I think I have seen an ep...

You might have been looking at the seat itself. The scenes were bretty brief, I think they did it deliberately so we wouldn't know Astro was in the car until after the accident. I concede. It must have been the seat back. http://afk.sagamers.com/astroboy/mayancar1.jpg http://mywebpages.comcast....

Cobalt never appeared in any of the televised episodes, but I have been collecting the English comic books and he appears in that


Perhaps he never appeared in any of the English dubbed eps, but I have seen him in a little video clip with Atom and Uran. :lol:

Here are some pics of Dr Elefun putting the cyclometer in Astro's chest in Atlas Lives Again:


Ok, the word 'cyclometer' itself had little meaning until you reminded me of its purpose: a tracking device. ;)

Astro appears to have been driving. I just took a look at it and there is definately only one person in the car. The form is kind of vague, but the profile silhouette could pass as Astro. I don't know if this means he's learnt to drive since his days as the human Toby, or if he crashed it a...

I haven't heard of Silent Running. Sounds like a submarine movie. It is a really cool sci-fi film starring Bruce Dern and these http://www.robotbuilders.net/droneroom/grafx/dewey.jpg three little robots . This page also gives brief synopsis of the film. :lol: Anyway, after years of pollution, e...
