== Anime and Manga ==
* The Tachikomas from ''[[Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex]]''. Cutest [[Spider Tank|Spider Tanks]] ever. Also designated [[Badass Adorable]], given that they're capable of taking down opponents several times their size. Without weapons. With them, they're essentially an urban Act Of God.
* Some of the robots in ''[[Astro Boy (manga)|Astro Boy]]'' and ''[[Pluto]]''. Even the more overtly robotic ones, like [http://www.onemanga.com/Pluto/41/12/ Anton] can be adorable.
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' has Sho's Vehicroid monsters which feature various vehicles from tricycles to bullet trains. All of which are adorable...and [[Badass Adorable|badass]].
* The Haros from ''[[Gundam]].''
Line 39:
* ''[[Batteries Not Included (film)|Batteries Not Included]]''. Two Cute Machines ''spawn three more''.
* The cast of ''[[9|Nine]]''. Go ahead, [http://www.areyouscreening.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/3-4.JPG just try and tell me] they aren't cute.
* LaRousse City's block robots from ''[[Pokémon: Destiny Deoxys]]''
Line 49:
* Gadget from ''[[Doctor Who]]''.
** And don't forget K-9!
* Marvin the Paranoid Android from [[The
* The DRDs from ''[[Farscape]]''. They're little round yellow droids with cute antenna-headlights, they're super-helpful, and one of them can play the 1812 Overture. What's not to love?
* Tom Servo, Crow, and Gypsy from ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]''.
Line 72:
** From the sequel, we get the personality core Wheatley, and Atlas and P-body from the new Co-op mode (adapted from a core and turret, respectively). Atlas and P-Body may not be as small and adorable as the others, but make up for it with their mannerisms.
*** The 'different' turret at the beginning of the game fits this trope ''especially'' well.
*** So do the [[The Woobie|remarkably pathetic]] frankenturrets: they're basically a pair of turrets hastily fused to a cube. They can't stand or talk but crawl along feebly with their two wonky forelimbs, and they'll shiver and retreat into their cube/shell when you pick them up. These things basically behave like scared hermit crabs, and are [[Ugly Cute|strangely, sadly adorable]] for it.
** The Weighted Companion Cube.
* The small, stage one turret gun in ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'' (if you happen to be the engineer who built it).
