Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Marvin (http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mjs2000/protomarvin.htm)'s suit. As worn by Warwick Davis.

I'm irritated. He was supposed to be a porportionate robot with no reason to complain; just a whiney little bitch. I hope they give him some sort of paint job, and if they don't put lights in his eyes I'm setting off a nuclear weapon at Disney's studios.

i always imagined him with wheels for feet, with lights for eyes, but the light would normally be dim because he's such a pessimist.

The suit needs some way to articulate the face, if only by blinking lights. It's not how I picture Marvin, but it could work. It's just a prototype after all.

cool, but he needs a face, or at least some flashy lights.

i expected something a bit better from the jim hension creature shop

anyone know who is doing the voice yet?

edit: i just realised i have just repeated the post before mine

Ok, flashing lights all around then. What's next on the agenda?

[bigtimecow]

maybe like a little screen for his mouth, and when he talks you see like sound waves or something. some shit like that

I know the BBC TV series took some stupid liberties, & had awful production values, but their Marvin is to my mind the quintessential Manic-Depressive Droid. :(

It even had lights for eyes. >:

It needs a grill, light flashing, mouth also. So you know when it is speaking, cuase it flashes.
