What Was Your First Robot?

While going through a few old photos I stumbled upon one of me with my first robot which I can recall having. And since the forum is largely all been questions about robots or technical stuff with very little "chit chat" I thought I would prompt something a little more social:)

Circa 1984/85 or somewhere around there I would guess, here is a 4 or 5 year old me with my very first robot... I'm no "Whovian" but is that a K9 I had?

I believe this may also have been the same robot that my brother tipped a glass of water in to the battery compartment after we had a fight over something, it may have been the other robot I vaguely have memories of (however couldn't describe it and haven't seen a photo which triggered the "I had that one").

Anyway, what was your first robot? What happened to it? Do you still have it?

I'm still working on my first robot. It's a full size B9 robot from Lost in Space. Close to getting the arms and claws working then I'll be kind of done. I hope to be someday done enough to move on to my second robot. I'm thinking that will be a full size Robbie the Robot if I can find the parts and can afford it.
