Been a very long time since I made one of these. And since Halloween's coming, I thought it now time for me to get back to reviewing
Robotboy.
9. The Donnienator.

Dr. Kamikazi turns Donnie into a robot of destruction to serve his evil plans! When Donnie decides to steal and destroy all of Tommy’s action figures, Robotboy intervenes and Donnie ends up in hospital. Donnie is attended to by a disguised Dr. Kamikazi and gets fitted with ultra strong casts that appear to give him super-strength. Using his new powers, Donnie takes to smashing up buildings, flipping cars and dishing out ultra-painful, wedgies to all the kids he can find! However, when he stumbles upon Tommy, his casts turn into a "Cast Bot", which assumes a mind of its own, hell-bent on destroying Robotboy.
Thomas sure has one wild imagination.
Looks like Donnie wants to destroy Thomas' toys despite them being smarter than him.
Harsh blow!
Little does Donald know the doctor is Kamikazi wanting to capture Laubotboy.
Donnie statue!
Sharks!
Donnie wedging Goose!
He's huge!
Donnie has a monster!
Who would have known Constantine's toes were prehensile?
This episode is good, but it's not without its fault. Gus getting wedgied disgusted me to an extent. All in all, it shows how prehensile Constantine's toes are and not to mention how funny he and Doctor Kamikazi were here! Tommy not wanting to hurt Donnie sure shows that even though Donnie's one of Thomas' enemies, but he'll always be his brother.
My rating: 8/10.
10. Halloween.

When Gus walks in to Tommy's room dressed as
The guy with the mask on Halloween night, Robotboy get's scared and attacks him. When Tommy stops him, Gus is happy that his costume works and the he wasn't recognizable. Then he explains to Robotboy what Halloween is and invites him to join him, Tommy and Lola when they are going to trick or treating, beacuse everyone whill think that Robotboy is just a boy in a robot costume.
Meanwhile Dr. Kamikazi uses a spycam on a bat to see what they are talking about in Tommy's room. He want to use his new army of monsters to catch Robotboy when he is trick or treating. When his army of monsters come, he is blinded by his snake pet who spits snake poison in his eyes.
Meanwhile the gang is ready to go. Lola is dressed as a cowgirl, Gus is only wearing a mask and Tommy is dressed as
the hunchback of Notre Dame. But Robotboy also wants a costume. So Tommy gives his costume to Robotboy and decides to make a new costume for himself. He makes a Robotboy costume and goes trick or treating dressed as Robotboy. While they are trick or treating they run into Kurt, Stu and Mookie. Kurt demands that they hand over their candy to him, but they refuse. Gus tries to flee with Robotboy, but is being chased by Kurt. Gus eats all of his candy so that Kurt can't steal it from him. This makes Kurt angry and he steals all of Gus his clothes (except the mask) and leaving Gus behind, completely nude. Then Lola comes in panic and tells them that in the meantime Tommy is being kidnapped by Dr. Kamikazi.
Dr. Kamikazi is pleased with himself that he finally captured Robotboy. Tommy and Constantine are trying to explain that he didn't but he doesn't believe them. Because his eyes are still blinded by his snake, he still doesn't see that good and really thinks that he captures Robotboy, because he can't see the difference between the real Robotboy and Tommy in his Robotboy costume. He wants Robotboy to get superactive and let him make do some assignments. First he wants to see Robotboy (Tommy) to demonstrate his superpowers by opening a big vault in a bank. But Tommy only hurts his feet when he tries to kick open the door. Then he wants to see if Robotboy can protect himself. So he puts Tommy in a hippo cage in the zoo and tries to wake up the hippo so that he will attack Tommy. But instead the hippo releases a big amount of gas into Kamikazi's face. When Tommy also fails to fly and rescue a kitten that Contantine thrown off a satellite tower, Kamikazi has enough of it. He threatens to bomb Tommy's house if Robotboy (Tommy) still refuses to corporate. Tommy is still explaining that he isn't Robotboy and that he can't tell how to superactive. So Kamikazi decides to cut him open with a band saw steal his motherboard.
Then Constantine tells Kamikazi that Lola, Gus and the real Robotboy have found them and are here to rescue Tommy. Kamikazi then realizes that the real Robotboy is standing in front of him and that he kidnapped Tommy. He orders his monsters to fight against Robotboy. Robotboy superactives and fights them and rescues Tommy before he get's burned by the dragon. Meanwhile Gus changes the location of the bomb to be sent and attack Kaziland instead Tommy's house. Kamikazi withdraws after Robotboy has taken down all of his monsters.
Robotboy, Tommy and Lola are returning to Tommy's room where Robotboy says that Halloween is exciting, whereupon Lola say's that this year was a little bit too exciting. When she wonders where Gus is, Tommy explains that he is late-minute trick or treating, scaring the people in town because he is still naked.
Looks like Gus really knows how to Trick or Tree!
Mister Snakey used Acid!
Gus really loves those lollies!
Look out Thomas, Lola, Mookie and Stu! It's Tyranitar!
Snakey used Acid again!
Now a rhino sure has farted in Kamikazi's face!
Gus is in his birthday suit!
Funny how Tommy was Igor at first, but now he's Robotboy! Hmm....another hint of TommyxLola, anyone?
This episode really was something! Since it's nearly Halloween, I though it'd be the right time to review this. One of the best of Season 1! Especially with that rhinoceros farting on Kamikazi, Goose being in the nude because, you know, for kids! And Lola's cowgirl outfit reminds me of Ami's wild west outfit. There's also Kamikazi's eyes being destroyed by Mister Snakey's acid attack. Well, at least he didn't bite the evil doctor! Very fitting for Halloween!
My rating: 10/10.
Final thoughts:
This episode sure was interesting! Donnie becoming a monster because of Kamikazi, only for Kamikazi to try and steal Laubotboy! But it did show that Tommy still cares for Donnie since they're brothers. Also, a fitting Halloween episode, especially with that Tyranitar shadow.
Episode rating: 9/10.
