You have to love Replicants especially these kinds of replicants. I'm a particularly big fan of Platinum Girl. She was THE Replicant! Metal Men rocked! What a book. How did she get left out of that super title? Great post. SFF
Stepfordian repli-khants...Mmmmm.... Ahem, yes, the Metal Men! I only discovered them when Walt Simonson took over art duties sometime in the (?) early-80s. Then, they still had a cutie fembot, called Tina (I think)...She was hot...
That was my original idea for the title of this blog, a sort of summation of nearly everything I'd ever wanted cinematically: regularly playing on the ABC Channel 7 4:30 movie--or on WOR-TV Channel 9's 4 O'Clock Movie--the greatest monster movie in the universe, and incredible combo of miniatures, men in suits and stop motion, with entire continents destroyed!
But then there was a coup d'etat, and Tzar Ivan I of Ivanlandia took charge.
