The Robot entered the "Strongest Man in the World" contest of the Original Book and was the previous year's winner before Homestar Runner and company entered. Unfortunately for him, he required power from an AC outlet, and The Cheat pulled his plug in the middle of the contest. He also made a cameo appearance in the cartoon Marshmallow's Last Stand, as well as being shown silhouetted in strong badathlon. He towers over the other contestants, with a rectangular head topped with some sort of antenna, a face consisting of nothing more than two black eyes, arms ending in hands shaped like wrenches, and blocky feet. His name includes an integral article.
