Fembot Fantasia

We handpicked a host of lovely and powerful cyborgs to illustrate Annalee Newitz's essay on pop-culture fembots, but film and TV history has blessed us with many, many more. Who did we miss? Which 'bot in this gallery is your favorite? Next week I'd like to crown one fembot with a  People's Choice Award. Personally, I think Kelly LeBrock (Weird Science) portrayed the hottest fembot ever. What do you think? Tell us in the comments section below.  —Megan Miller

Comments

[isaac]

in the magazine you guys forgot data from star trek

[Becca]

What about Replicater Carter from Stargate SG-1...

[mike]

Winona Ryder, aka Annalee Call from Alien Resurrection, probably deserves an honorable mention.

[Jeff]

Galaxina. Rhoda from My Living Doll. Andrea from What Are Little Girls Made Of? Jocasta from the Avengers. All those hot chrome Soroyama robots.

Not that I think about female robots alot...

[Marc]

You missed my favorite, Angel Lips, from the Ruby, The Adventures of a Galactic Gumshoe. (http://tinyurl.com/nr9v9)

"Plastic, I love the smell of plastic."

BTW:You guys should allow some html and use an antispam service.

[Torulf Greek]

There are lots of fembots in Japanese anime.
A more serious ones in the Ghost in the Shell 2, innocence and in mainstream anime as Chi in Chobits.
In books we have Dors in Asimovs Forward the foundation.

[Jerry Hunter]

cherry 2000

[Dodd]

The Buffybot could be folded into this thesis. Somewhat.

[Scott]

A lot of good choices, but Six wins this, hands down:

"33": "God has a plan for you, Gaius ..."

"Home, Part II":

BALTAR: "Well, you're not a chip. That we've established."

SIX: "Yes."

BALTAR: "But Sharon being pregnant does suggest that you are rather more than a simple manifestation of my subconscious. And I'm not... crazy?"

SIX: "No."

BALTAR: "Then who, or what, are you exactly?"

SIX: "I'm an angel of God sent here to protect you. To guide you, to love you."

BALTAR: "To what end?"

SIX: "To the end of the human race."

Still makes my skin crawl ....

[cajuntad]

what about seven of nine?

[PajamaGuy]

How could you forget Cherry 2000?

[Felix]

Galaxina should be the #1 on any fembot list. The movie was horribly cheesy, but Galaxina is by far the most desirable fembot in movie history.

[Chris Giddings]

I agree with Scott here. Six has my heart and soul bound up whenever I see her on scree. And frankly I've never been much attracted to blonde women. There always has to be some exception to the rule. :\

Why Lord!?! Why!?! Oh yeah, she's hot as hell! :)

[magicjava]

Harry Mudd's women on star trek.

[jk]

Aqua from "Heartbeeps". Bernadette Peters wuz hot.

And what, no one mentions Vicki the Robot from "Small Wonder"?

[FoxWaiting]

Ping, the "PS2 accessory" in the web-comic MegaTokyo by Fred Gallagher.

http://www.megatokyo.com/

[DrBob]

My fav would be Rommie from the Andromeda TV series. Beautiful and deadly, with the mind of a warship and absolute loyalty to her captain.

[Mike Evangelist]

You haven't gone back far enough. 'Dr Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine' from 1965 has some wonderful early fembots in gold bikinis. They served as the model for many others.

[kellercyclist]

What about Rosie, the Jetson's maid?

[Kirk]

Number six of course. She's bent on the elimination of humankind and such a hottie to boot!

[Jody]

Tiffany Brissette as Vicki the Robot. She was the robotic child maid I had a crush on as a child. Part of a bad tv series in the mid eighties called Small Wonder.

[Gary]

What about Kristanna Loken, a female terminator, called T-X or Terminatrix, from Terminator 3?

[Jon]

Darryl Hannah as Pris in Blade Runner

[Tiberius]

The first mention of a Fembot (the actual word "fembot") that I've seen to date was in an old episode of the Bionic Man from the 70's. It referred to a suite of female robots (all the 'bots in the episode were feminine) that were so lifelike you would have sworn that they were being played by actual humans in the episode...

[George]

Umm.. what about "7 of 9" from Star Trek: TNG

[Robin]

Kendra Kirchner as Cassandra in Android.

[TheFrog]

>>Umm.. what about "7 of 9" from Star Trek: TNG

7 of 9 is a human, enhanced with Borg technology.
She is not a Fembot.
and she is not in TNG, but in Voyager.

[TheFrog]

>>Umm.. what about "7 of 9" from Star Trek: TNG

7 of 9 is a human, enhanced with Borg technology.
She is not a Fembot.
and she is not in TNG, but in Voyager.

[Fredrik Andersson]

Pris in Blade runner will always be my favourite.

[Avg Bear]

I dug Rachael (although an identical model) over Pris in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?-- Blade Runner watered the characters down too much.

I suppose Battle Angel Alita is technically a cyborg, but damn close.

Otherwise my vote goes for Sharon on BSG.

[Cygnus V]

I know she's a little young (the biological equivalent of 12-13 tops), but my all-time favorite gynoid is little Tima from the 2001 anime remake of Metropolis (and her counterpart from the 1949 manga, Michi). Tima is incredibly sweet and angelic and is very curious about her world--until you plug her into a honking big ziggurat-shaped supercomputer and she decides to punish mankind's treatment of robots by nuking the planet...O_O Her character is even better in the manga; in the manga she can fly, fight back a trained martial artist, leap across the city streets like a ballerina, and even navigate a ship! (Too bad she had to die a horrible fiery death, though...)

Other things that are cool about Tima:

1. I believe, although I have no idea if anyone else on Planet Earth has this theory, that her name is derived from Tiamat, the most powerful of the Sumerian goddesses, from whose body the cosmos was shaped. Goddesses rock!

2. She appears to be solar powered (both directly, and indirectly through the food she eats). Viva renewable energy resources!

3. From what I understand, Tima in many ways emulates a normal human; she can love, enjoy the company of animals, breathe, and eat. Many fans even speculate that she'll be able to grow into an adult android. For all you guys and lesbians out there, that means someday she'll be legal...;)

4. Did I mention she can learn anything put in front of her? Think of how far she could go at a woman's college!

[Lee]

You guys forgot the best of all, Maitreya/Jade Blue from the X-Files, First Person Shooter episode. Although technically not a robot she is the sexiest thing to hit the screen.

[OregonGuy]

Platinum from Metalmen comix.

[Brandon Cowden]

The French Fembot from Austin Powers. She was sexy and deadly.

[Wyatt Wingfoot]

Andrea (Sherry Jackson) on STAR TREK's "What Are Little Girls Made Of?". or... The blonde saloon girl that Richard Benjamin "hires" in WESTWORLD.

[The Sci-Fi Guy]

Just because Jeri Ryan is now playing a lawyer, let's not forget Seven of Nine in this the start of STAR TREK's 40th Anniversary!

[Anonymous Coward]

Cherry2000 is a HORRIBLE movie! The android is not powerful, and not remarkable.

I agree-- Data's daughter Lal.
Also, the Borg Queen has been digitized,
assimilated, and no longer has her own soul,
so she's also a fembot.

[alex]

kelly lebroc is definately the best fembot ever

[mark]

"kelly lebroc is definately the best fembot ever"
agree :)

[Jane Montgomery]

My favorite is Rayna from Star Trek's Requiem For Methuselah.

[Ken]

I like the robot on your Sept 2006 issue, but you guys gave no information... is it a working robot?

[Titus Black]

Hey what about the bot from the failed little known TV show Little Wonders? she was kinda cute and since I was a little kid I had a bit of a crush on her... What ever happend after that show?

[Cru]

The Major from Ghost in the Shell Movie and TV show.

[Rich]

Hey. What about Rhoda the Robot from "My Living Doll."

Played by 5' 11" Julie Newmar.
She made Kelly Lebrock look like a boy.

[socrbob]

How about 1/2 vote for Rommie from the Andromeda tv series and the other 1/2 vote for the blonde bot that played the second Rommie. She was hotter than the original.

[Bart Balch]

Pris gets my vote in the best sci-fi flick ever!

[bzbzbz]

NO NO NO ...ALL OF THEM FEMBOTS ARE GREAT ... BUT SIX FROM TRIPPIN THE RIFT IS BY FAR THE MOST SEXY,TASTYAND NASTY OF THEM ALL..... WITH PRISS COMEING IN AT A CLOSE SECOND

[bzbzbz]

AND I DO ....think about female robots alot...

[Paul]

Pris, definitley Pris.....

[Dan]

Definitely, Seven Of Nine should be included. A bombshell par excellence!

[Bob]

You forgot Doyle from Andromeda (Brandy Ledford) and Cherry 2000

[John C.]

I have to agree with those voting for Rommie from the Andromeda. How Capt. Dillon Hunt can keep his hands off her is beyond me and make him a much better man then I especially if she could reproduce another battleship for the Commonwealth!!

[Scott H.]

Everyone seems to have forgotten my favorite Fembot, well sexiest. Liz Hurley from the beggining of Austin Powers 2.

Za za zow!

[Heber]

My favorite one is María, from Metropolis.

[Darth Cheney]

What about 7 of 9? Or are Borg not considered botilicious?

[Sneakerlocker]

You forgot Ping from megatokyo.

[luis]

I LIKE GALATEA FROM BICENTENIAL MAN SHE'S KIND OF GOOFY AND PERKY AT FIRST BUT THEN SHE BECAME A VERY QUIET NURSE BECAUSE OF THE CIRCUNSTANCES (SOMEBODY MISS THE IN BETWEEN

[Saw_BR_Long_Ago]

What about the _other_ replicant in "Blade Runner", played by Sean Young? She was just as hot as Pris.

Rayna from "Requiem for Methuselah" (Orig ST), and of course Mudd's women.

The BuffyBot :-)

Cherry 2000 (cheesy movie, wimpy robot, but who cares?)

[Mr. vegetable]

The best has to be Rommie from Andromeda. Definately!

[Lee]

The most aggressive of them all has to be Bai Ling, the Mysterious Woman in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.

[G Bowker]

Rommie from Andromeda. Definately!

[Sunny]

Vicky from SMALL WONDER.

[Geeking Out]

What about keanu Reeves? I have long suspected that not only is he a woman, but if you watch closely - his acting is about as robotic as can be!

[Schmankman]

Without a doubt: CHERRY 2000!
The movie made a definate show of the "niceties" that science can produce, but how Nature truly surpasses it all w/ a binding that is stronger than the strongest composit alloy!

[Stephen]

The Borg Queen. How could you leave out the Borg Queen. The only time I ever got an erection watching a Star Trek movie!

[Mrshoujo]

One Fembot that cannot be surpassed is Chii from the CLAMP manga and anime CHOBITS. OK, so she's more of a Persocom (Personal Computer) than a robot, but man... She really captured the imagination of many fans.

[Ignacio Ramírez]

First of all, I tend to think that the best way to start is to define "robot".

I, as a crazied Asimov fan, tend to agree with his definition given on "The Bicentennial Man" (The book, not that crappy movie): A robot is an artificially produced brain installed on a body, artificial or otherwise, and not counting with enough input/output to either be a "body" for a remote brain or a subprocessor of a hive mind. In my definition, a robotic brain installed on a corpse is a robot, yet a human brain inside a robotic body is a cyborg by definition AND a human by right.

All things considered, I'll put my votes:

*Bloodberry, from the Anime Saber Marionette R. She is a councellor for her king, yet her functions range from babysitter for the prince and older sister for the two marionettes of the prince, to some light combat. Her equipment didn't include any real weapons, so she had to blow her own reactor in order for an asassin marionette not to gain access to her sisters and her prince.

*Brid, Kyanny and Edge, the three asassin sexdolls from the same anime. I am not a pervert, yet my imagination only wonders everytime I remember that in one scene, the three of them were simultaneously having sex with their master. As their master was a normal human and had his hands visible, and camera angle always kept focus on their faces, I have to wonder.

[Keely]

I was also going to mention Cherry 2000

[IanO]

Sean Young in Blade Runner blows the rest away. I still come over all unnecessary when she walks toward the camera the first time you see her in the film ....phew!!

In fact that scene is one of the most haunting images on film, ever!

[Hugo]

Yes... Kelly LeBrock was really, really hot in Weird Science. Her role in the movie helped her be so.
Shapely Seven of the Voyager was too calculating cold to be hot. But she got my second vote.

[Steve]

How about Gayle Hunnicutt as the fembot Octavia in Get Smart "It Takes One to Know One" (1967)? Hymie thought she was cute.

[Davecat]

For me, it's a toss-up; either Cherry 2000, or AF-709 Rhoda from 'My living Doll'. Both are beautiful, likeable, and fantastic examples of sexy, well-built Gynoids. Well, and maybe Mr Universe's bride from 'Serenity'; she was pretty remarkable, too. And you can't forget Call (Winona Ryder from 'Alien: Resurrection'). What do you mean, I can only pick one??

Yes, I'm probably thinking about Gynoids more often than I should.. ;-)

[jusmar]

Hands down the blonde chick from battlestar galactica. She has no known name, though copies of her by the name of Gina and Shelly Godfrey have shown up.

I believe she is an instance of psilon model number 6.

That women is the embodiment of seduction, and oh so very scary.

[jujubee]

Cherry 2000
yumm :)

[Tripp The Rift]

Both SIX from TRIPPIN THE RIFT, and SIX and EIGHT from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA. All hot in their own way. Six from TTR was built for only one purpose...need I say more.

[DickHodgman]

Jean Marsh played Alicia in "The Lonely", in season one of The Twilight Zone. The convict knows she's a robot, but convinces himself otherwise in his solitary confinement on an asteriod. The conclusion is a shock to him and the viewer.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0734656/

[jkthunder]

R4-P17! For the uninitiated, that's Obi Wan's astromech as seen in the Star Wars prequels.

[IAld]

Im swinging toward KOS-MOS from Xenosaga

[Kaushik]

Terminator-3 : The latest addition to the list...

[Jonathan Blaze]

Uh...there are real life fembots already. http://www.realdoll.com

[Ripley]

Kristanna Loken, the Terminatrix from Terminator 3 gets my vote.

[Sachin]

Kristanna Loken of course!!

[Joe shmoe]

wow...Terminator3????

[argus]

how could you have forgotten the all the different fembots of westworld and future world

[Doug]

Don't forget Joan Rivers as Dot Matrix in Spaceballs.

[Lavode]

My favorite is the unnamed robot in the segment "Presence" in the Anime "Robot Carnival." She has the sexuality and alienness of the fembot, but also vulnerability and fragility instead of danger, which makes her a rather unique fembot.

[EvilRoy]

I nominate Yancy Butler, who played Eve Edison in the TV series "Mann and Machine". Yancy played an AI robot cop in the 1992 series.

[Benesound]

"How about 1/2 vote for Rommie from the Andromeda tv series and the other 1/2 vote for the blonde bot that played the second Rommie. She was hotter than the original."
---------------------------------
There's no way Doyle was hotter than Rommie. Doyle didn't even come close.

[Tropical Treefrog]

Before the Buffybot there was Warren's unnamed brunette lovebot. She was sweet, strong, and VERY beautiful. Kudos to Rommie, my personal favorite, and the endlessly exquisite Andrea the android from Star Trek. Andrea was WAY ahead of her time, and the costume was held in place by witchcraft. Brrrrr!

[Jack-son]

I think that the choices shown were good ones but the T-X from the Terminator 3 and 7 of 9 from Star Trek Voyager were left off the list

[erniemm]

Cherry2000 beyond a doubt!!

[Steve]

What about the robotic maid on the Jetsons? What was her name, Alice or Rosie or something like that? Rosie I think it was! Anyway she was the first robot female I could think back to, but definitely not much to look at, just a bucket of bolts cartoon with a memorable maidsy kinda voice! Maybe Alice was the regular robot maid and Rosie may have been a replacement for her in an episode I'm remembering. It was quite a long time ago! Anyone else happen to recall? A little help please!

[Jesse B]

Cherry 2000, for sure!!!

[Mike]

Crhisty Swanson in Deadly Friend , YUM .

[Jay]

My favorite is my Tattoo!

[Jay]

My Tattoo!

[George Wagner]

It's now 79 years on, but my vote's still for the False Maria in Fritz Lang's METROPOLIS.

[Mike]

You can't forget the totally hot chick from "EVE" of Destruction, bombshell with a built-in bomb.!!!

[JustAGuy]

What about music video bots?

[Bob Schreib Jr.]

Out of all the media fembots, I'd say that it was the actress Yancy Butler, in her short-lived SF TV series "Mann & Machine" about a lady robot cop. Further, technology may have caught up with the fembot or sexbot mythology with those 'Real Doll' units, one of those things was highlighted on an FX "Nip & Tuck" episode, and a recent episode of ABC's "Boston Legal" or goto www.realdoll.com because they are apparently making real-life versions of a robotic sex partner there, and may come up with a version that moves realistically in the near future. They were apparently inspired originally by the 'sexbots' in the old SF movie "West World". Eventually, they will probabily make a real life 'fembot' bordello chain, because, ironically, nothing sells like sex in a high-tech world.

[R Lesley]

What about the Lisa Ryder the robo-hotty from Jason X. Can't forget her, only female character to whoop up all on Jason.

[Bill]

[ED]

Kelly LeBrock, Weird Science is hottest. 7 of 9, Star Trek Voyager, the greatest.
And Yancey Butler, Mann and Machine, the best of all!!

[wolff000]

CHERRY 2000! One of the hottest fembots ever built.

[KATOMONSTER]

I would say Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell!!
She is a badass!

[KATOMONSTER]

I would say Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell!!
She is a badass!

[Tux]

you missed a fembot from the television series "THE OUTTER LIMITS". (2 were featured in the same episode - the second being the hottest)

[Bill]

what about Ilia bot from ST:TMP?

[Fishinlog]

How about replicator Carter from SG 1. I know she may not be as young as most but her first scene where she emerges from creation is pretty awe inspiring.

And I do agree that 6 from Battlestar is incredible

[Austin]

I definitely vote for "Caprica Six," but what about the female Terminator from Terminator 3?

[Tom Willenbring]

What about all the fembots in I, Mudd, from Star Trek TOS, or Lore, Data's Daughter from Star Trek ....Just a few more forgotten ones!

[Tom Willenbring]

What about all the fembots in I, Mudd, from Star Trek TOS, or Lore, Data's Daughter from Star Trek ....Just a few more forgotten ones!

[Joshua Smith]

Seven of nine hands down . and wht about that chick from when mars attacks, Oh yeah she was an alien. Thats an idea for another categorie. How bout the chick from species, wow

[James Berryhill]

Nika available from www.realdoll.com

[Mike Dearing]

Rommie has to be my first choice.
I didn't know Christy Swanson had done a fembot role. Without even seeing it, she is my second choice.
If Seven of Nine qualified, she would be my second choice.

[Robert]

I think Romi the AI for Andormada is real sexy.

[Elaine M Barr]

Seven of nine is a Femborg. There's a new term for you.

[Elaine M Barr]

Seven of nine is a Femborg. There's a new term for you.

[Alex]

What about the fembot from Terminator 3?

[branwen]

I am quite pleased with Priss. Since I was a lil girl I wanted one or to be jus like her. ahhh

[draziwdlo]

What about Cherry 2020 (I think that was her name )

[Denger]

The Lieutenant Ilia-probe from Star Trek:The Motion Picture (1979) deserves mention. One of the femme 'bots most notable for -not- running amok, she represented both women and artificial intelligence respectfully.

[Steff]

Terminator 3 TX Terminatrix, the badest!!!

[Usama]

I think the author only barely tapped into the strange psychological misogyny of the 'fembot' concept. Its more than just 'man' wanting to control 'woman'. Its also 'man' wanting to control 'self'. Women like to think the world should be about equal rights. But its still a man's world. That is to say, in the most rawest, brutish, base physical equation of brute force vs. brute force, it's a man's world.

Why are apex predator's threatened with extinction throughout the world? Because men cannot find a balance with man's power and responsibility. Man's power can easily wipe out all tigers, wolves, lions, alligators, bears, etc. Only stewardship and regulation have enabled men to control themselves.
Why are the vast ocean resources of millions of fish being tapped out? Because man cannot find a balance between power and stewardship. Nations' have had to put numerous regulations on the fishing industry in order to avoid destroying entire ecosystems.

The matter of men vs. women is more a matter of men finding a way to control themselves, some way of regulating their sexual energy. While western societies have empowered women, the 'fembot' serves to objective women. It serves as the channelling of male sexual power. As does porn. The empowerment of women has been accompanied by the objectification of women. Porn is a multibillion dollar industry. Prostitution is legal in most western nations. Sex slavery and sex tourism are two industries catering to the global sex market. Advancment of 'fembots' is not a regulation or control of men, its further exploitation of male sexual energy.
The common theme in all of this is the need for balance of power, rights, responsibility. Jenna Jameson, porn queen, has a doll made to look just like her. It sells for $1000s of dollars. Is that balance, responsibility? Is it okay for men to spend $1000s on strippers, hookers, sex dolls rather than on a family?

[nink]

OHG: You cannot forget, from current BattleStar Galactica, the Asian cylon. Grace Park stomps. http://www.tv.com/grace-park/person/47084/photos.html?tag=stars;more_img;1

Pris stomps as well but cannot forget the replicant who had no idea she was a replicant, Rachel http://brmovie.com/Profiles/BR_Cast_Young.htm. She is incredible.

Wynnona Ryder in Alien Resurection was awesome as well.

But since PS has defined fem-bots and beautiful and *dangerous*, then Grace Park is it for me. Yes the blonde nemessis of Baltar is hot, but is she not a manifestation and not really a cylon? Grace Park *is a cylon*.

[Nick]

what about seven of nine from st: voyager?

[LISA]

Ok i was trying to stay quiet but here goes
one ... Mudds women were not fembot but women under a potion to keep them young and beautiful so they are out
Two you must keep within the asminov defination of female robot aka fembot that said all borg except the queen are out they are cyborg not bot the queen however is within the defination so is ok
three i vote for lucy lawless as her cylon self in the new battlestar and yes it is her i checked the websit credits she plays the blonde journalist who turned out to be cylon...
four However six is definatly hottter i must admit
P.S. Leave cherry 2000 alon as a male dream of sexbots done by mainstream movies it was not too bad..

[M.J. Lone]

Britney Spears was the shortest lived Fembot I am sure, but damn, she looks good.

[amy]

You can not underestimate the influence of the Golden Bikini Clad Robots in Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine.

[Donn]

The fembot Katy, Dr. Franklin's assistant in "Kill Oscar" on The Bionic Woman tops my list, followed closely by Tami Cross in "Fembots in Las Vegas," also on The Bionic Woman. These were the first known "fembots," described as such.

[Mark]

I'm really suprised "7 of 9" from the StarTrek Voyeger show isn't on this list. She's probably one of the hottest fem/bots I can think of. ...Way better than Daryl Hannah! Woof!

[Kyle]

2 corrections: Somebody said 7 was from TNG, it's voyager. Someone else suggested pris from bladerunner. Did you even lahook at the article and pictures?

[Pyr8dude]

I liked Rachael from Blade Runner. She seemed the most human.

[bart v.]

you've missed the girl in "terminator 3:Rise of the machines"

[Mike]

Dorothy from Big O. She's cute, petite, and graceful as the most poised Balshoi dancer. She can also break you in half in no time flat and probably lift a tank without breaking a sweat (which febots do not do anyways).

[Jeff Hamilton]

Hands down, Ms. Loken from Terminator 3!!!!

[Armitage, from Armitage III]

Armitage from Armitage III.

[Peter Tokar]

I like Ashley Scott in her fembot role with Jude Law
Her costume delivers the sexist pleasures and after
all, I am a 47 year old man, never married

[mosquito]

Here are some others:

http://www.briansdriveintheater.com/goldfoot.html

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fictional_robots_and_androids

[Throws2000]

Alicia is the number 1 fembot. She was in an episode of the The Twilight Zone called "The Lonely". Jean Marsh..
Photos here: http://www.podster.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/fotos/tv_alicia.jpg

[Owlfan12000]

What about Westworld from 1973? The movie was filled with fembots. One of the 3 areas was a Romanworld "The lusty decadent delights of Imperial Pompeii" It included Anne Randall, Playmate March '67 as Daphne a servant girl. I have fond memories of the fembots in the movie (of course I was 14 at the time and I may not have been fairly picky).

[mggomezd]

Rachael from Blade Runner will always have my vote for sexiest fembot.

[Ken]

The Cherry 2000 in the movie by the same name was very nice.

[binro]

There's another evil fembot with no humanity that you forgot to mention, Ann Coulter.

[Garrod Ran]

>>There's another evil fembot with no humanity that you >>forgot to mention, Ann Coulter.

...Yeah, I'm pretty sure she's human.

Anyways, Motoko Kusanagi from Ghost in the Shell is definitely the best Fembot, period.

[Anonymous]

KOS-MOS is a fairly interesting humanoid automaton. Though she is not from a televison series or a movie, she is a credited post-metropolis, gun-slinging android from the XENOSAGA series.

[The 'fuc' (as in Confucious, like duh!)]

I don't know who you so-called comment posting people think you are-- pretenders, wannabe's, or just so cluttered with your decaying build-up of pseudo-knowledge that you can't be blamed. The "Mysterious Women" in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (Ling Bai), is far and away the...fuggetaboutit. I'm not sure why I even bother.

[anonymous]

i would have to say the fembots from the bionic woman "fembots in las vegas" and "kill oscar" would do it for me

[Noah Important]

Hajime Sorayama's fembots.

All others SUCK! (and swallow ;) )

[scott]

I have to agree. T3 has the best fembot. 7 of 9 would be a close 2nd if we are counting her. =)

[Alex Wisz]

I'm very surprised no one has remembered or mentioned any of the fembots from Transformers! There was the first, Arcee from the first animated series. And then there was the deadly, no-nonsense badass Blackarachnia from Beast Wars. I'm very surprised neither of them have gotten a nod yet.

[DoctorDoom]

My fantasies were inspired by the luscious Andrea (Sherry Jackson) of "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" from ST:TOS.

[Tourok1]

I would have to concur with Cherry 2000..........

[Chris]

What about Seven of Nine from Star Trek:Voyager?

[Dan]

Transformers, Stargate, Battlestar Galactica... you got to be kidding me! This groups needs to expand their horizons.

#1 - False Maria from Metropolis - Recognized throughout the world as one of the iconic images from the 20th centaury in one of the greatest pictures of all time. Serious books written about the movie and thesises written about the ro
bot. In the Robot Hall of Fame. 100 years from now, no one will know or care about the fembots described above - not so with Metropolis and Maria. Need I go on?

#2 - Pris and Rachael from Blade Runner - The movie and robots are not on the same level with Metropolis and Maria, but the movie is the real deal and the bots are babes.

[John Chamberlain]

Pris (Blade Runner) continues to be the number one synthetic babe. She'll be back in Blade Runner's fresh new ending by the (films) creator.

romi from andromida was hot and still is

[Mike Zickefoose]

if you want to get technical, from what I understand , a Fembot is usually 100% machine.
So the likes of 7 of 9, major Motoko Kusanagi, would be considered cyborgs..part human/organic, Part machine. Even the replicants and current huam form cylons would be more like cyborgs than fembots. But then the article does ask for other cyborgs they missed. as for that I could mention Steel Angel Kurumi, the 3rds and 2nds of Armitage the 3rd (not just naomi), Battle Angel Alita, Betty or Betsy from Scrapland (video game on Xbox), Steel Harbringer (video game on first Playstation with fembot converted cheerleader human trying to save the world from alien robot conversion machines.. some of her enemies included converted showgirls and young mothers), the cyborg maria from I love maria, the list could go on.. should check with the members of Fembot Central forums or check with members of ASFR groups. as for my vote for best...have to go with Major Motoko Kusanagi of Ghost in the Shell..the perfect combo of sensuality, intelligence, and military strength and skill.

>>Umm.. what about "7 of 9" from Star Trek

Better known as 2 of 38s...

Darryl Hannah as Pris in Blade Runner she i s so seductive
and the way she jumped on Harrison
ford....u know she would be on top.....

[Humoriste]

Hey, I know they were comical, but what about Austen Power's sex kitten fembots? Says a lot about the 1960's even if it is humorous.

[BP_11252]

You forgot Angelina Jolie from Cyborg 2. Bad movie, great robot.

[nono]

one more mention of 7of9 and i'll go postal. she's a cyborg, dam*it! cyborgs are always hotter cause they're real live human beings. and the hottest cyborg ever is gally/alita/gunnm, followed closely by hitomi from the applesed graphic novels (artificial organic human)...

but here i believe we are looking for actresses portraying robots, not cyborgs, so manga is out of the picture.

so yeah, rachael was hot, if you like the damaged kind. and i wont even discuss battlestar, or the resurrection of the alien francise (although winona still rocks). no, i' d have to vote for the buffybot. but not out of sheer joss whedon fandom. she's one of the few who actually got to fornicate on screen. and she's the very archetype of a robot girl, always chipper and happy and eager to please. and we have the real thing to contrast her with: buffy is complex and hard to be friends with, buffybot is easy to handle an easy to get with.

so warren's first sexbot wouldn't do either, gotta be the buffybot! she embodies best what i gather to be hollywood's fembot myth.

Anime fembots. Android 18 from Dragonball Z. About a billion fembots in the anime Chobits: Chi, Sumomo, and Kotoko just to name a few. Then back to movies, the C3P0 Girl from SpaceBalls. Do programs count? A few from the Matrix trilogy, Persephone, Sati, the Oracle. Galataia (probably not spelled right) from Bicentennial Man.

[Justin]

Oh, wait ..... were voting on hottest. I thought we were just making mention of any fembots that may have been missed. Anyway, if hot is the case, definately Persephone from the matrix. If programs don't count, then 18 from DBZ.

[CarlosX]

In Chobits The blonde android girl Chii is warm and gentile, and very innocent. Hideki realizes that she is not just a machine.

The opposite is the android girl Pris in the movie "Blade Runner". Again a young blonde ( is found in the trash by an old doll maker Sebastian. She tells him that she is cold and hungry, he takes her in because he feels sorry for her, but it is a trick. She repays Sebastian's kindness by having her boyfriend, the robot Roy Batty, kill Sebastian.

You could say that Pris is the antichii.

[Eric]

I have to go with KOS-MOS from Xenosaga. Not sure what it was about her, but she is my favorite. After that, Chii and Yuzuki from Chobits.

[JP4]

Six. Kelly LeBrock was hot, but she wasn't even a robot, rather a manifestation summoned through scientific sorcery. Similarly, Seven of Nine is a cyborg, so along with Jamie Sommers doesn't qualify. Six is hotter anyhow :D

[JD]

Can't believe you left out Julie Newmar from My Living Doll.

[TLF]

I would agree, Cherry 2000 would make a perfect mate, seven of nine is good also,"if six turned out to be nine" I saw seven of nine on celebrity Jeopardy and she could win the true blonde award. Very short and flat chested, so they pump them up in Voyager. Can't wait for the Japanese to build a fembot, I would definitely buy one.
