parts from his very popular female cousin. Rodney learns his work ethic from his parents as well as his ability to dream. Rodney is also inspired by Bigweld, an inventor from the big city who features on a television show.
The film really gets going when Rodney heads to the big city, inventions in hand, to find Bigweld. Rodney quickly realises that all is not well at Bigweld Industries. He meets an eclectic bunch of robots who show him how to survive metropolitan life. Rodney's skills are soon necessary as the evil robot, Ratchet, who is now running Bigweld threatens the survival of his new friends and potentially that of his aging parents.

Advantages: none spring to mind Disadvantages: Considering this is for children I am shocked
Robot Boy is a Cartoon showed regularly on Cartoon Network.
It has only been created in the last two years and in my opinion someone should sort this program out.
Tommy is a 10 year old boy, and Robotboy's new owner,Professor Moshimo has entrusted him to his greatest fan tommy ,so that Robot Boy can learn to become like a real boy.
