I
AM NOT ROBBY!
90% of the people who recognize the B-9 from Lost In Space believe his name was Robby. People have even argued with me insisting he was called Robby. When I tell them he was called just "Robot" or "B-9", they say, "I don't think so, I'm sure he was Robby." A handful of people have even said, "Oh, that's R2-D2!" In one strange case, someone said, "That's Twiki, right?" The most bizarre one yet was when someone saw a photo of my B-9 and said (no joke), "I never saw a furnace like that before." I will direct these folks to this page, and maybe it will help sort things out. |

This is Robby. The B-9 is NOT Robby Forbidden Planet, 1956 |
R2 D2 from
Star Wars The only similarity is that part of it spins around Star Wars, 1977 |
Twiki from
Buck Rogers. How anyone could confuse this with B-9
is beyond me Buck Rogers, 1978 |

Furnace puts out about 200,000 BTUs. The B-9 puts out about .05 |
