Right now, with the ease of vacuforming, 3D printing, smaller and more powerful servos, remote controls, ordering CAD made parts online and having them shipped over in days or less, all the info you can find, it is insane what you can do. While i do not think there is a major market for it, i wish there was someone making a kit to build one. Sure it would be expensive, it would be worth it.
Its amazing that the movie prop creators of these robots started from scratch and created these working models in months instead of years. They were very well thought out as well. The crouch, stand and stair climbing, all terrain capability is something we still don't see in commercial robots. Very impressive. There s one video shows a machine shop during Covid making parts for J5 they never completed the project due to other business. But, IIRR they were going to make their CAD drawings for hip swivel and shoulder mounts available.
A mate of mine built a Dalek from scratch, which has an electric wheelchair inside so you can sit in it and drive it around. Complete with voice changer so that you sound like a Dalek. We took it to his local pub one night at chucking out time and harassed drunks leaving, asking for a beer or cigarettes. All fun & games until the Police turned up, but even they saw the funny side.
The best part of the story is that one of the guys leaving the pub came running over all excited and said, "I've got a full size TARDIS in my living room." I kid you not.
God bless you sir! This video has brought a tear to my eye! Takes me back to SC2 when Johnny 5 was left for dead by thugs with crowbars. God i miss my 80"s childhood. This and Flight Of The Navigator 😢❤
A few years back we toured a 🌽 🎥 studio in San Francisco in the old armory building. The basketball courts had once been used by nearby Lucasfilm to film the stop motion shots for Empire Strikes back so the building is zoned for film production. Anyway, sitting in the back of one of the many tiny sets, next two two 55 gallon drums of lubricant (yes, really) was one of the original on-screen Number 5 robots. He’d been, uh, fitted with some new parts. But there he was!
I'm 28 as a kid i watched this with my mother all the time🙏 and back in the late 90s early 2000s I'm not sure people realize how rare this robot actually is, as a kid i even wanted a mini figure #5 but there was nothing for these movies literally impossible to find, so we built a homemade mini model one😊 they were extremely rare let alone a REAL lifesize replica, back then the only lifesize robots were the puppets they used in the movie and a lot of them got destroyed 😢 it warms my heart to see this robot still turning heads and giving people smiles in the modern day❤️ #5 is and always has been my favorite robot, all the way down to the design, you can even see his design replicated in a lot of modern day robots like Wall-E
Top notch job! I remember hearing how fully functioning Johnny 5 for the movies took nearly a dozen people to operate all the movements and your doing it with one remote. Technologically amazing!
Amazing work. Just like the original film robots, he moves so naturally and his face is so expressive that it completely tricks some part of your brain into thinking he really could be a thinking, feeling creature. To capture all that in a home build is incredible.
Hello my friend. You should consider to develop an AI with based and trained on his personality ti make a full working replica ❤ you said it's 3D printed. Are you thinking about sharing your stl files? Kind regards
Now that Ai has come so far. Someone could make a full working Johny 5 from Short Circuit. Then drive its personality and voice using Ai and ChatGPT. As far as I am aware no one has done it before.
Instead of Terminator with Skynet trying to destroy humanity I see a mutually beneficial future where sentient robots are treated as equals as real deal American Citizens like our first robotic citizen 1988 Johnny 5 loves our Constitution. 😎
Fantastic tribute to the legend that is Johnny 5
I need to see Johnny 5 in person. He was one of my childhood heroes.

😂😂😂👏👏👍

I kid you not.
Was it full-size on the outside or the inside? 😉

Met this fella! Great experience and you can tell how enthusiastic and passionate he is 👍🏻
Top notch job! I remember hearing how fully functioning Johnny 5 for the movies took nearly a dozen people to operate all the movements and your doing it with one remote. Technologically amazing!
I really hope to meet him one day! I am so touched that someone made a Johnny 5. Just seeing this brought me so much happiness. He is perfect!
Thanks for bringing me back to my childhood

The robot
The myth
The robotic legend
J5🎉
Absolutely incredible❤
I think Johnny 5 should have his own TV comedy Series or a brand new version of Short Circuit movie since the he's very population from 1986.
OMG, this is soo amazing. In my childhood, I loved Nr.5 so much!!! You did a pefect job!!!!
Now here is a Robot i would love to see AI applied to.
I absolutely loved Johnny 5 as a kid 😊
Input! Input!
Worth it!
This is so cool! Johnny 5 was one of my childhood heroes ~
Wow, this is like a dream come true. I dreamed of having one of these when I was a kid… I love these movies..
This is sooooooooooooo incredible man! AMAZING WORK! Subbed and gave this a thumbs up! AMAZING WORK...
MY 80s CHILDHOOD HAS RETURNED!!!🤩✨
Awesome build - much respect 👍👍👍
It's surreal, I can't not see him as a real person
It's actually better than the movie props 😂
bc the movie is from like 1986
Maybe in some ways, but I bet its basically on par with SC2, which was upgraded quite a bit from the version used in the first film.
Seem Like he’s getting a lot of input I love it
Holy Christ, my childhood! ♥
Superb. He is awesome 👍
When are you guys coming to the US???
At first I saw £20 and missed the “k” which makes more sense 😂
This is awesome…I want one ❤️
With open Ai today you can really make it interactive like Johnny 5 from Short circuit
That is sooo frickin cool great job man. Favorite movies ever
He’s absolutely perfect ❤
This is so cool!
Short circuit was a amazing movie
It still has no part 3 yet!
Hello my friend. You should consider to develop an AI with based and trained on his personality ti make a full working replica ❤ you said it's 3D printed. Are you thinking about sharing your stl files?
Kind regards
Way cool!! From the human JOHNNY 5 born 8 years prior to Short Circuit! (John J. VanOostendorp V).
Johnny 5 with only £22K instead of £9M? That's more economic than i thought it'll cost.
bad humans!! : ) love this so much thanks for sharing!
You did an outstanding job, did you make your own blue prints for machining johnny fives parts?
My childhood. 😊
Now that Ai has come so far. Someone could make a full working Johny 5 from Short Circuit. Then drive its personality and voice using Ai and ChatGPT. As far as I am aware no one has done it before.
First word I taught my son was "functional"... this is still cool af though.. crazy to think we can have a literal autonomous one these days
even if it is a machine gotta luv that johnny 5 luv u buddy
Although we saw you at Sheffield you need to do film him talking to a pump at texaco. !!!
Very impressive ❤
That's so freaking cool
Before there was Wall-e, there was Johnny 5
This is amazing ❤ I love Johnny 5 wish some one would make me one 😍 I can dream lol 😂 again amazing job I've subscribed
It's so cool. I want one. Immediately
@@jjr1728 same here
He should have Tim Blaney record some original dialogue for him! I was afraid he was going to get hit by a car at the end there. 😬
Only 80's and 90's kids can relate.
i have Goosebumps..
Very nice. Now where do I get the schematics? :D
Oh man, this is so awesome! (Even though my preference would be "Number 5" not "Johnny Five." One word. Laser.)
Doing God's work! Thank you!
So cool!!!
Instead of Terminator with Skynet trying to destroy humanity I see a mutually beneficial future where sentient robots are treated as equals as real deal American Citizens like our first robotic citizen 1988 Johnny 5 loves our Constitution. 😎
That reminds me, you never really see a gold Johnny 5 replica… if I had a little more dedication and a lot more skill…
This is so cool
I really really want one

That is awesome! Would love to have a life-size replica myself especially with today's AI built-in.
Legendary
Go Johnny 5!!!!!
Awesome
So will he be in USA sometime again?
Childhood 🥲
❤❤❤ I would cry too 🥲
Fucking awesome
Wow! I need one in my house to replace my always moody wife....😆
so cool :D
Would love to see a metal 3d printer
Next build a T-800 :D
Well, 2024 J5 probably will use LIFEpo4 and supercapacitors in place of lead acid. :D
Wonder what Steve Guttenberg would think of this
ruclips.net/user/shorts-u927k_Wk5o?si=P4iKlBR0MgLaf3iW
Wouldn't you like to be a pepper too?
Can you make a life size Johnny five for me.
ITS A MITSUBISHI
Hello bozo
one of the best robots in pop culture history ❤🥹
My name is Josey I’m a kid I am 8 years old can you make a Jonny 5 for me please.
Toll
Cuite
I can't believe, how accurate you have done this...Thank you 🥲
Pretty soon he can just put ai in it.
It is already using AI. Otherwise it wouldn't operate.
