Hyphenate?

Should it be called "Grape-Nuts Robot" instead of "Grape Nuts Robot"? The hyphen is visible on the front and top of the robot. --71.244.175.158 14:49, 30 Aug 2005 (UTC)

You're right, 71. According to this, there's definitely a hyphen. Good catch. — It's dot com 15:03, 30 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Ceral?

On the third line of the ingredients list, it says "more ceral". Is that our typo, or TBC's? Could someone who knows how to decompile flash check it? If it's TBC's mistake, we should insert a "[sic]" or a note explaining that we've faithfully copied it.--Bobo the King 04:36, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

It's either TBC's mistake or TBC's purposeful mispelling, as zooming into the flash file says "ceral". Dr. Clash 04:42, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Food logo

Anyone else see a similarity to the Ford logo? Is this worth putting in the article? Scanna 02:40, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Robutt?

Memory tells me there was at least one scene in which it said 'robutt' but I watched through the links and didn't find it. Am I mistaken? — 99.255.181.67 (Talk | contribs) 14:50, 27 September 2019 (left unsigned)

Perhaps you're thinking of when Bubs and Strong Bad were trying to make it say "kiss my butt". Or maybe The Homestar Runner saying "robit" in 20X6 vs. 1936? DEI DAT VM^┌_{datvm center}\^{super contra}_┘ 19:48, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Rename to "Strong Bad Robot"

Strong Bad refers to it as "the Strong Bad Robot" in its first appearance, it has "strong bad robot" written on it, and its file in robots clarifies without ambiguity that its name is indeed "Strong Bad Robot". Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 23:40, 24 November 2025 (UTC)

Yeah, the blueprint reading "Name: Strong Bad Robot" is pretty unambiguous regardless of how prominently the "Grape-Nuts" label can still be seen. This is at least as obvious as Fan 'Stumes 2022 prompting the Wiki to change "Ted Averill" to "T'daveral"; even if "Grape-Nuts Robot" is more descriptive, we defer to TBC naming conventions even when it's less descriptive (e.g. "Intro"→"Old New Intro"). -- Bleu Ninja 18:04, 25 November 2025 (UTC)
