RoboCop 1924
June 24th, 2008, 3:10 pm Posted by ColinSeriously, these are actual plans for a Robotic Automaton circa 1924. He’s fully loaded too, containing not only a Telegraphone, but also tank treads on his feet. Which make his legs kinda pointless, now that I think about it. **Note the twirling lead baton at the end of his arm, perfect for beating the Irish to death**

Look for this in an upcoming episode of “Doctor Who”.

Yes, except it’ll be made of tinfoil and contain a midget.

I love how they just write things like ‘gas engine’ and ‘legs actuated by motor’ without having to explain the actual workings of it all. They may as well write ‘time machine ray’ and have an arrow pointing to a light on its head. Of course the time machine will be powered by the ‘magic time crystals’ contained in its ass. I want to be an inventor now…

(As Terry, clipboard in hand, looks up at his gigantic blackboard filled completely with complex mathematical equations and diagrams detailing Einstein’s theory of general relativity and how it relates to inter-dimensional time travel):
“Magic time crystals – of course!”
