That's not even as good as some robots from the 50's.

But it is better than the robots from War of the Robots and Star Odyssey:

The Volkite Robots from Undersea Kingdom (1936) were a pretty good example of dorky robots for the time. There were of course way worse, though.

(http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/images/reviews/81/1235929094_1.jpg)

Meanwhile, we have Ro-Man from Robot Monster (1953), which is an entirely different kind of bad. Looks like a gorilla with a diving helmet. :bouncegiggle:

And lastly, here are the Quarks from the Doctor Who episode, The Dominators (1968).

Might as well post a couple more, I got nothing better to do and bad robots are sort of what got me into the whole B-Movie genre.  :teddyr:

This is Gamelot from Ultraman Leo (1974). He's a giant robot with springs inside of his legs sent and he can also retract his limbs into his body to fly around. The design is actually not bad, but the whole leg-spring thing came off as pretty cheesy.
http://youtu.be/li_GwUILriU?t=218 (http://youtu.be/li_GwUILriU?t=218)

And lastly, here is Mechagiras from Ultraman 80 (1980). While the design isn't too bad, it's pretty much Ultraman's cheap knockoff of the more popular Mechagodzilla from Toho's films. It's a giant robotic dinosaur-like thing, it fires lasers, has a force field surrounding it, and it has a head that rotates a full 360° that also just so happens to be its weakness. Oh, and it uses Gigan's roaring sound.  :bouncegiggle:

Dang it this is the robot I was going to post, it was the first one that came to mind!

How'bout the stop-motion wonders from STAR CRASH, then?
They look like they asked an eight year old "draw us a robot!" and then based the models around that!

I haven't seen all of Ship of Monsters, I just skimmed through it on YouTube after you posted that picture featuring Tor. I've been more familiar with the Japanese tokusatsu shows and films as well as a good chunk of European and American monster flicks, but somehow, the South American ones always manage to fall under my radar..... Maybe it's because the title isn't always translated to English? And also because they seem to never show up on my searches for dumb monster movies for some reason....

I have seen MST3K's take on the Aztec Mummy one though, that was quite an experience.  :teddyr:

This brought to mind my recent re-watch of Star Trek Voyager, specifically the "Captain Proton" episodes. Doctor Chaotica had himself a superbly dopey robot.

Might as well post a couple more, I got nothing better to do and bad robots are sort of what got me into the whole B-Movie genre.  :teddyr:

This is Gamelot from Ultraman Leo (1974). He's a giant robot with springs inside of his legs sent and he can also retract his limbs into his body to fly around. The design is actually not bad, but the whole leg-spring thing came off as pretty cheesy.

And lastly, here is Mechagiras from Ultraman 80 (1980). While the design isn't too bad, it's pretty much Ultraman's cheap knockoff of the more popular Mechagodzilla from Toho's films. It's a giant robotic dinosaur-like thing, it fires lasers, has a force field surrounding it, and it has a head that rotates a full 360° that also just so happens to be its weakness. Oh, and it uses Gigan's roaring sound.  :bouncegiggle:

For some reason, I like these more with the original Japanese soundtrack.
