Crow T. Robot kicks it with Kickstart v1.2
Crow T. Robot kicks it with Kickstart v1.2
Previous Image | Next Image
Description: This is Crow T. Robot from the Mystery Science Theater 3000 TV show. Well, a replica, anyway. He was built for a fan-made episode of the show and, as you can see from the missing paint on his beak, he had quite a time of it.

That's an Amiga 1000 with an A1080 monitor.

I didn't build that one, in particular. Building them is for fun or, as the description says, for making your own episodes of the Mystery Science Theater 3000 television show.

>> Who knows what he does in his spare time.

I'm more concerned with what you do in your spare time... Building robots, for what purpose?

I thought it was one of those things to keep shoes from losing shape... but with eyes!

I know there's a screensaver that has the animated insert-workbench-disk screen. I put it on a windows machine at my work once. :-)

Other than that, I dunno. I think there was a way to replace the image on the kickstart disk to something else but I don't know for sure. Check aminet.

Does anyone know where I can get a copy of the image shown in the picture (of the hand holding the kickstart disk)?  For some reason, I want to see if using it for a boot screen on one of my boxen would make me happily nostalgic, or sadly reminicent.

Any format (jpg, bmp, etc) would do.  Thanks.

For those of you who remember the first season (episodes 101 - 512)


Hmm... That's really the first four and a half seasons, but who's counting?  ;-)

Keep the tapes (and torrents!) circulating

No fair posting the KTMA lyrics.


Somebody had to do it. :-P


For those of you who remember the first season (episodes 101 - 512)

In the not-too-distant future-
Next Sunday A.D.-
There was a guy named Joel,
Not too different from you or me.
He worked at Gizmonic Institute,
Just another face in a red jumpsuit.
He did a good job cleaning up the place,
But his bosses didn't like him
So they shot him into space.

We'll send him cheesy movies,
The worst we can find (la-la-la).
He'll have to sit and watch them all,
And we'll monitor his mind (la-la-la).
Now keep in mind Joel can't control
Where the movies begin or end (la-la-la)
Because he used those special parts
To make his robot friends.

Robot Roll Call: (All right, let's go!)
Cambot! (Pan left!)
Gypsy! (Hi, girl!)
Tom Servo! (What a cool guy!)
Croooow! (He's a wisecracker.)

If you're wondering how he eats and breathes
and other science facts (la la la),
Then repeat to yourself, "It's just a show,
I should really just relax
For Mystery Science Theater 3000!"

Next Sunday A.D.
There was a guy named Joel,
Not too different than you or me
He worked in a satellite loading bay,
Just polishing switches to pay his way
He did his job with a cheerful face,
But his bosses didn't like him,
So they shot him into space!

"We'll send him cheesy movies,
"The worst ever made
Joel says when you got lemons,
You make lemonade
Now keep in mind he can't control,
When the movies begin or end
Because he used those extra parts,
To make his robot friends

Robot Roll Call:
Cambot

Croooow

For... MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATRE 3000!

Look again... there's no ROM at all... He's inserting a Kickstart 1.2 disk.  ;-)

Cool picture.  MST3k Rocks!

It must be a < 1.2 ROM, as there isn't any v1.2 written on the right side under the disk...
