YES!!! I now have my very own Vice Brigadier Sir Thomas "Bullhead" Servo (aka Tom Servo.)

"Check me out!"



My particular Tom Servo was crafted by Master Botsman Robert Bukoski. He kept everything original and did a phenomenal job. I'm waiting on a Crow T. Robot. YES, he's fully functional (well, except for his arms. )

I'm still all giddy. My very own Tom Servo. Too awesome to explain. I can't wait for Crow.

Clicking that link sort of helped a bit, but even now, I still have little to no idea what this thread is about.

Something with robots?!

You need to be on nerd-level 15 (at least) to roll for a lore check on Tom Servo.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is something that was shown around midnight on a comedy cable-channel back in the 90s and even then it was on the fringe.

Personally I love it and am a strict Joel fan over the other guy. Tom and Crow are so adorable!
I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

MST3K, Mystery Science Theater 3000 was a very funny concept. The host and his robots watched some of the worst movies of all time, and made running commentary throughout. Funny, brilliant and filled with often extremely obscure comments that only a few people would understand... which made it extremely funny to those who caught the reference.

And remember when you're going to visit with the 'Master', keep those hands of fate at ten and two.
What, me worry?

Be careful with him though. He is quite susceptible to bulking up.

Hehe. There's a sketch with Tom and Servo's Mac v.s PC debate. Tom's a Mac user, so the picture is fitting.

Oh, and here's the United Servo Men's Academy Chorus Hymn as directed by the United Servo Men's Academy choral director, Vice Brigadier Sir Thomas "Bullhead" Servo.

Everyone sing along!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yFZQaUlcgA

Chorus

Here's to the guys and gals who like to fly,
Flying so high with some guy in the sky.
Skyrockets in flight,
Afternoon delight,
Captain High at your service.


Would you like to fly in my beautiful balloon?
Take these broken wings and learn to fly me to the moon.
Sail on silver bird,
Have you ever heard
that the bird
is the word?

In a big country
Dreams say with you,
"Come along with me Lucille,
In my merry Oldsmobile.

We are kids for saving Earth,
We are fans of Colin Firth.
Off we go to yonder blue,
We really move our tails for you.


Aaaaah

'Cross the wide Missouri!
