Robotboy S1E12: Human Fist on Ice & Robot Rebels

Thought I'd start another Robotboy review, but this time, one with a couple of moments where I did shed a small tear.



23. Human Fist on Ice.
Written by: Robert Mittenthal.
Aired: UK: 16 November 2005. US: 25 March 2006.

After Kamikazi finds out the perfect plan to capture Robotboy he uses a hypnotizing method to control an ice performer to get Robotboy for him while on an ice presentation with the main character's favorite superhero: The Human Fist.

Ha! Kamikazi's camera in the toilet!

Cushion fight!

Look through this crowd and you can see Dexter from Dexter's Lab.

Ah, so Human Fist's hair is an afro.

Turns out his actor's a ferry Capt'n, and that his first name is Randy.

Man Kamikazi and Constantine are hilarious!

Constantine! A sumo!

Ow! Robotboy's head is severed!

No! He's a moment where I did cry. 
 
Now Robotboy's head is reattached!
 

This sure was one 'eck of an episode! We got more info on Human Fist's actor as well as funny moments with Kamikazi hurting Constantine for his stupidity! And there was a sad moment where Tommy, Lola and Gus thought Robotboy had died. I almost cried there. Anyway, brill episode!

My rating: 10/10.



24. Robot Rebels.
Written by: Randolph Heard.
Aired: UK: 16 November 2005. US: 25 March 2006.

When Lola feels disappointed to Tommy for spending more time with Robotboy than her, her father comes up with an idea to make it more fun for Tommy to be more with Lola. Lola's father buys 3 giant robots for pure entertainment and while Tommy leaves Robotboy with them alone the 3 giant robots tells him that they should ignore being slaves to humans and wants to start a rebellion towards them. 

Tommy and Robotboy sure love this falling off plane game.

Hmm...Lola looks mad.

Finally, after a couple of mentions, this marks the first appearance of Lola's dad, who is an ambassador. And get this! We find out that Lola's last name is Mbola.

Oh, poor Lola! All because Thomas would rather spend time with his robot toy than he does with his girlfriend.

Extravagant house!

Titanium trio!

Dancing robots!

Does Kamikazi have cameras everywhere?!

No deactive?

Echo La Cuckoo? Spicy chicken gizzard?

Take a look at Lola's skin colour and that of her dad. Something tells me that whoever Lola's mum is, she must be white.

Hmm...this episode was kind of a letdown. Of course this is the only episode where Lola appears without Goose, and those robots look very impressive, and we get to see Lola's dad for the first time, but Kamikazi's scheme kind of ruined it for me. And also, I couldn't help but feel sorry for Lola in this one, all because Thomas Turnbull would rather spend time with Robotboy than he would with his girlfriend. But oh well, still decent.

My rating: 7.5/10.

Final thoughts:

As usual, this is an interesting episode. An epic episode with the Human Fist helping Tommy, Robotboy and their friend, and also, Tommy goes to Lola's house and we finally see Lola's dad, although Robot Rebels didn't turn out brilliant. But oh well, guess you can't be satisfied with everything. Next time, I will be reviewing Robotboy's Season 1 finale.

Episode rating: 9/10.
