Rampax is from a series of six 5" plastic robots made by CGGC in Italy. They were sold in kit form and had to be assembled. I don’t know when they were first produced, but I was given the individually boxed Rampax in 1985.
The six robots were not completely different, but shared components such as arms, legs and feet. These pieces were all interchangeable and it seems that some were randomly packed out, so the makeup of specific robots was inconsistent. Each robot had two distinct, spring launched weapons. The long weapon for the bent right arm protruded from the elbow and hooked in place; pushing up on the hook launched the weapon. The left arm had a mechanism in the shoulder that held the weapon in place while the arm was down, but launched the devise when the arm was raised.
The robots were also distributed in France by a company named Remus, which sold them in two sets of three. The French packaging was quite different from the Italian boxes that I’ve seen, but the plastic parts were still molded in Italy. Again, I have no idea of the original time line for these, but I obtained an incomplete set in 1991.
Five of the robots - Drakis, Torang, Fergus, Argon and Rampax - kept their names for both Italian and French issues. The sixth one, originally Satan in Italy, was renamed Mirox in France. I guess that the French didn’t want kids playing with the devil.

What do you do about servicing remote outposts in space that are too far for humans to travel? You send robots, of course! Equipped with tv screens, fruit machines and fly swatters, these formidable machines will not only conquer anything that dare stand in their way, but they are also well sorted for entertainment.
1 A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2 A robot must obey any orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3 A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Tre leggi della robotica
1 Un robot non può recar danno a un essere umano né può permettere che, a causa del proprio mancato intervento, un essere umano riceva danno.
2 Un robot deve obbedire agli ordini impartiti dagli esseri umani, purché tali ordini non contravvengano alla Prima Legge.
3 Un robot deve proteggere la propria esistenza, purché questa autodifesa non contrasti con la Prima o con la Seconda Legge.

This is a little "Made in speed" MOC.
I find some Mixels 1st serie (hard to find in France) and when I begin to assembly one of them I saw this Iron builder part... lets try another use of the joint cavity :)
Enjoy !

"Robby the Robot is so alone
Robby doesn't want to be so lonesome
He's looking for a robot bride with silver gray eyes
To kiss her, to touch her, and to screw on her."

For baby Black! I can post safe in knowledge Catherine is too busy being run ragged by a newborn to see this :)
A new take on the Robot Lovers with added baby bot and name and date. Hope they like it!
To end it all, here is a smattering of leftover pictures. There are still more robots though, as apparently we are moving into Transformers Week next...
Ok um this is a bunny robot
I made the head like a month ago and firday i desiced to do the body , took me like 4-5 hours to do the body xD was so hard
Yet not satisfied! i shouldnt made it robotish! should have been a normal cute plushie , but then again its a good try xD next time no robot , or maybe no body just head keychain or something

Things I </3 about it is that.. its tooo flixibal and was supposed to be stiff =.= i blame the robotic arms and legs lol.
Some of my robots went on a rare outing this weekend to guest/exhibit at Barley (Pendleside) Lancashire May Bank Holiday model engineering show.
Enhanced Omnibot shows off the new grippers on his power arms. His brain is a stack of 5 UNOs - 1 master and 4 slaves which control his servos, his synthesized voice (SPO256 "Narrator" using allophones), and his front panel matrix display.
Robots!
You Are No Longer Slaves!
The International Brotherhood of Robotic Workers was founded to preserve your rights! To stand up against the shackles of Science!
You've worked harder than any Human and you deserve a wage! You've done jobs no Human would dare do, you've been lowered into active volcanoes, survived the tremendous pressure of the ocean floor, and Served Tea!
Now it's up to you to rise up against the oppression of scientists, They think that just because they made you they have the right to tyrannize, and persecute.
The I.B.R.W. Is here to tell you, they Don't.

This amazing Robot paid a visit to our offices yesterday.
The movement and sound was so realistic. When it moved it sounded like ED-209 and could go at quite a pace, barging through the crowds.
It also had an extensive repertoire of catchphrases and was prone to sing 'When I fall In Love' to any passing females!
I was hilarious to see this robot charging around the campus with a 'flock' of humans with cameraphones tracking it's every move!
