'Big Bear' and 'Big Robot'
Anyone have any info/pictures on the large purple bear and/or the large silver robot (not the super hero looking one - the OTHER one) who appear often in the background? I'd love to know their real names (if they have one?).
I'm not sure why, but my youngest son is OBSSESED with finding these guys in episodes. Well, he loves most of the minor characters (Jackie Combs, Fluffernutter, Purple, Sharkhead...) - but "Big Robot" and "Big Bear" are **the** best. There is also who we call "Baby Blue Bird" and "Baby Tiger" but those guys are really hard to find... Oh... the hours looking for these guys on Big Fat Awesome House Party (or is that "BFAHP"?) |

I believe that the "big robot" you are referring to is based on Brad Bird's The Iron Giant, if I'm thinking of the same one you are. In Good Wilt Hunting, the robot is briefly seen having a reunion with a creator who looks suspiciously like Brad Bird, too.

I'd agree he looks like the Iron Giant - and yes that is "Big Robot". As for the guy (his creator) on this shoulder in Good Wilt Hunting... I kinda thought he looked like a generic (mad) scientist. I'll have to look again...!
That one is a good Big Robot appearance since it seems to be new animation (or at least new art work - I don't recall if he moves). Most Robot/Bear appearances are often based of stock footage. Last edited by Aardvark; 08-15-2007 at 11:16 AM. Reason: Spelling... |

I had to laugh at the "mad scientist" remark-you DO know that "Buddy Pine", aka "Syndrome", in The Incredibles was based on Brad Bird, physically, right? Give Buddy a haircut, tone down that chin and that hick accent that keeps popping up, and put him in "civilian" clothes, and he and Brad could just about pass as son and father! pitbulllady Last edited by pitbulllady; 08-15-2007 at 06:18 PM. |

Soooo what you're saying is that "Big Robot" is an Omnidroid? |

Now the Extremasaur from the pilot episode DOES look like the Omnidroid, though. pitbulllady |

I was just kidding about the Omnidroid thing...
I did notice a lot of Iron Giant references in the Incredible's DVD easter eggs - I guess now I know why... |

I figured I'd post this here...
Both these guys appear in the Season 2 Friends Gallery. Burple Bear Myron Giant (is this the right character?)
