When Tommy & Gus go to the "Electronics Hut" store to buy parts for Robotboy and fix Gus' broken Game Buddy, Gilbert, the store clerk, wonders why Tommy buys such advanced parts. Gus didn't know what to answer him, until he spoiled Tommy has a Super Secret Fighting Robot. Gilbert became inspired by Robotboy, and places a tracker in Gus' Game Buddy when repairing it to locate Tommy's House and copy Robotboy. The next day, Tommy and Gus return to Electronics Hut, only to find out many colorful clones of Robotboy. They were selling so well, that even Gus bought a pink one. Even the main villains in the show bought clones of Robotboy. After that, the clones have gone berserk and had a low battery. Tommy, Gus and Robotboy hurried up to Electronics Hut to destroy all the batteries, so the clones would stop to attack, but it was too late, the clones were already in the store. When Robotboy fought the clones, he superactivated, and so the clones. The clones' circuits were burned up and they were destroyed. When Gilbert found about that, he escaped, and the episdoe ended when he promised to make more stable clones and sell them to world.
Tommy just called himself Tim.
Klaus has the parts he wanted now!
Kamikazi has his own Laubotboys!
Stop hitting yourself!
The knockoff Roboboys are dead!
This was an overall interesting episode, but the only puzzling thing about this episode is how Philbert knew Tommy Turntail's address. Though I do like how these Roboboys were recoloured in different colours. Sure, it's unoriginal, but this parodies how many recolours of other franchises there are. Oh well, still an entertaining episode, and it's nice to see many villains like Special, Kamikazi and Klaus get their own Robotboys.
My rating: 9/10.
90. Gus's Mix.

Tommy receives from Moshimo an all new oil that will increase Robotboy's strength and when Gus finds out about that he steals the oil and uses it to create drinks with it.
These wrestlers are weak!
Funny, Lola knows about General Yakitori yet never met him.
Enemies made of bins!
This old man is a monster!
Hmm....Gus looks evil.
Gus and Scott argue.
Now these wrestlers are powerful.
What an epic episode! Who would've known Gus would act like a semi-villain here? Though it was funny when Tommy asked Gus "Why are your eyes dollar signs?" Reminds me of The Lion King episode How to Beat the High Costa Rica when Pumbaa asked Timon the same question after seeing their suitcase full of money. And yes, another episode where Lola was the hero, though I'd like to question how she knows about General Yakitori despite never meeting him.....unless she was told about him off screen. But this episode overall rocks!
My rating: 10/10.
Final thoughts:
This was an overall entertaining episode! First off, Philbert scans Robotboy to make dangerous knockoffs out of him, and later, Lola saves the day by drinking Moshimo's special liquid, something Gus doesn't know what it's made of. Entertaining episode this!
