Robocon

Another "Friendly" robot is Robocon. He's from a Japanese TV show for younger kids from the 70ies, and is basically a man in a suit "Full of heart!". He is all that other Japanese robots are not: peacefull (no guns or lasers), funny, cute and well humored (well, at least most of the time).
