      Believe it or not this world is full of idiots that's why it's in such a sad state... but this video is great and the robot is brilliant, wish I had Jim's skills

      Most of the time it's accidental. The viewer doesn't even notices he/she touched the thumb down icon. The thumb down and the thumb up icons should be placed farther from each other.

      Probably because the builder seems pretty arrogant.

    I commend Mr. Collins on his dedication in seeing his dreams through to such a successful and impressive result. This robot is so massively iconic, I was honestly horrified to learn about how and why the original one was so carelessly destroyed. Such a shame! But his recreation efforts have yielded an amazing thing to behold.

    This is a fantastic Robot. It is a shame nobody thought to actually have him actually demonstrate The Robot's sound and/or movement! It's a lost opportunity.

    Wow just incredible. So happy you did this. The robot will now live on forever. Who knows,the robot might end up in some sci-fi museum one day. I do remember Robbie the robot as well . In fact I think there was a series where both Robbie the robot and the lost in space robot had an encounter . Love the show. It was fantastic.

    Without your dedication and determination, this piece of our 60's history would be lost forever sir !
    Your persistence and attention to precise detail has likely produced a version of the B9 robot that is significantly better than the original !
    Thanks to you, and of course the countless others out there on the internet, emailing each other, and internet resources this would have never been possible !
    Thank you Sir !
    My hat's off to you !
    I know and understand the countless hours that you have put into making this level of quality B9 !

    You know what I enjoy this when you talk about the Roebuck because of robot what was influencing me when I was a child I was in awe I thought it was another living creature ever since then I tried to get into robotics big failure on that. But it gave me skills and insights I'm things that I can do. If you're reading this I'd appreciate this perception. You should make a $20 gold coin size emblem of that robot and make it out of a ribbon coin for the achievement of acceleration in the robotic field or and in film industry with a robot but let's try to make the robot from Lost in Space immortal since his life was very short

    Robot was both Father protecting Will Robinson and faithful dog... 🐕 Smith infuriated me - coming between them - and there were episodes where I remember crying over the relationship between boy and dog... not having a father around (or interested... kinda like Guy Williams) probably heightened the emotion. (Guy Williams must have also been traumatized, going from “Zorro” to 2nd banana... died of a drug overdose in Latin America)

      That’s actually valid, but it may simply have been a matter of hiring the first person small enough to fit. Bob May’s story is that Irwin Allen told him he was hired if he could fit into the suit.
