He does tons of weird research at his lab and has made hundreds of mechanical/robotic/pneumatic instruments. No offense to the trons, but Maywa Denki makes them seem like tinkertoys:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-Z22QuEXnE& - PATSCRU, on 06/30/2008, -0/+3the only robot band that matters. These bedroom players can do whatever they want, they aren't coming anywhere near playing in a 3 story high video pyramid.

- Puppetfunk, on 06/30/2008, -0/+2Chuckie Cheese did it First.
- username7410, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1Very annoying!
- random42, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1That starts off really odd.
I have always liked Maywa Denki's Knockman Family
http://www.kennedy-center.org/giftshop/html/itemDe ... - BigBadaboom, on 07/02/2008, -0/+1Maywa Denki may be ingenious, but I found the Trons a lot more listenable.

http://www.thebots.net/ - thestranger, on 07/01/2008, -0/+1Man, I haven't seen CBR in years, and I completely forgot about him...
- clarient, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1Too bad he didn't program them to play anything good.
- chaos7, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1creative....but the song sucks
- JP42, on 06/30/2008, -0/+1Now the recording industry can cut out those pesky artists!

- nem0, on 06/30/2008, -0/+0I thought the Mili Vanili was the original robot band.
