Yup. I apparently was such a little [expletive] about wanting it for Christmas that my parents wrote a fake letter from Santa Claus explaining why it wouldn't fit in the house. 4-year-old me was so amazed that I got a letter signed by Santa that I totally bought it. I bought it so much that the next year they did the same damn thing when I wouldn't shut up about wanting this robot:

It worked then, too, but by the following year when they tried the same thing when I was demanding the gigantic GI Joe aircraft carrier I knew what the score was.

 

Still didn't get that damn aircraft carrier, though.

That's dumb how dare they impugn the sanctity of the Captain Morgan Club that I totally went to once.

I just visited my mom a couple months ago, and she had found a letter I'd written to my grandma as a kid, where I'd mentioned wanting some robot. I looked it up, and I don't recall ever having wanted it.

 

I don't remember now which one it was....will have to ask her.

we also had an old 2xl from one of my older brothers that operated on 8 tracks.

[Thurman Merman]

David and his robot buddies.

 

But in all seriousness, I had both those first two, and Im pretty sure I can still sing the MyPal2 commercial song to this day.

[Thurman Merman]

Wait, i can do better.

Nailed it.

[Guest]

i still remember being absolutely shocked when my 2xl asked me something like "what basketball player known as the greatest ever once scored 100 points in a game" and the answer wasn't michael jordan...i'm not sure if he was even an option.

I had one of these bad boys:

Oh yeah, definitely remember yearning for that. My cousin had it and he was always so indifferent to it and it drove me up the wall. In my head it was capable of making dinner or doing your homework or walking the dog. Basically I wanted a robot butler.

Though I definitely had an older 2XL, too.

that strikes me as like the neo geo of robots

 

everyone knew what neo geo was but i think i knew of one kid who had one. we talked about it like it was some crazy urban legend.

It was pretty cool, I think I even got it to pour a drink once. I would actually still have it, but my brother decided to take it apart to see how it worked and then couldn't put it back together.

I can't believe it was $600 in the mid-80's. That would be a quadzillion dollars today.

I knew a few kids who had those, but only one who somehow had the only Turbo Grafix 16 I ever saw AND the only Atari Jaguar I ever saw.

 

God knows whatever happened to that poor bastard.
