In 1954 "Metro Goldwyn Mayer" began a
magnificent project, destined to set a new
standard for Science-fiction and Fantasy films.
Originally called "Fatal Planet" the project was
retitled "FORBIDDEN PLANET" which was felt
to have more box-office appeal. Lavishly
expending time, money and effort, the film
makers determined to make it the super-
production of this neglected genre, with
beautiful sets, intricated miniatures, startling
special effects, and an outstanding cast headed
by a notable new star. He wasn't born, he was
Built! His name was "ROBBY the ROBOT".
He would retain his popular appeal long after
many of his human stellar contempories were
forgotten.
