adult Summer Penguin design I did ! I thought my redesign of her didn't suit her as much after I started watching Muppet Babies more so :)

Thank you for being so sweet about Chip! Unfortunately, your praise has rendered him too powerful, and now he’s real and has come to life.

Remaking one of my first posts on this website (which I have since privated), a headcanon post about 80s Robot from The Muppets because he's my favorite and a comfort character for me. This is just some quick(ish) basics. They mainly exist in my headcanon universe where the 2011 movie was either real or based on true events rather than "just a movie".
One of Bunsen and Beaker's creations. His function was basically what Tomy Company had envisioned while creating his real-life inspiration, the Omnibot 2000. (Greeting/entertaining guests, serving refreshments, watching the house even... although Tomy never got that far with their 'bot!)
He wasn't self-aware at first; that developed on its own later because nothing Bunsen invents works as intended.
Part of that included not being able to talk at first - he figured that out later and first demonstrated this by going up to Kermit one morning and saying "Kerrr-mit". (Needless to say, Kermit was very startled. Something had been up with the robot for a while, but it didn't prepare him for that.)
80s Robot has the Y2K bug. He can keep track of what day it is, but once years get involved he gets very confused. It's also part of the reason his speech patterns and such are stuck in 80s-era slang. (He was a little more adaptive before the turn of the millennium, but defaulted to what he knew once he couldn't keep track of what year it was anymore.)
Very clumsy because of his technical limitations and plain old hardware degradation. (Retrofitting or otherwise updating him has not worked, only replacing components with like parts.)
He doesn't have a color camera. Despite this, he can still see and understand things well enough to drive. He just doesn't pay as much attention to his surroundings when he isn't piloting a two-ton hunk of metal.
By the way, he drives using a remote system he hooks himself into that presses the pedals for him.
That modem of his is a huge battery drain and probably wouldn't work correctly if it was restored and used today. Also, his antivirus is very outdated. (Although some viruses might not be able to get enough RAM to run on him.)
Somehow he has an infinite supply of Tab and New Coke. If you ask him for a Coke to drink, you must specify Coke Classic or you will get a New Coke.
No one knows if the New Cokes are still drinkable or not. Nobody's been daring/stupid enough to try one (or more accurately, allowed to be daring/stupid enough to try one).
He will not go to Dr. Honeydew for repairs if he can do anything at all to help it. Bunsen is too much of a tinkerer and 80s Robot has a very realistic concern he'll wind up with some dangerous or unnecessary modification.
