Artist Sandy “Rocko” Rivera completes his miniature replica of the Lost in Space “Battle Damaged” B-9 Robot… which is a miniature replica of the FULL sized Battle Damaged B-9 Robot that he had previously built.

I wanted to give you an update with my progression on the mini battle damaged b9. It’s about 76% completed. I need to make the diorama background. I’m planning the blasts from Robby the Robot to be on one of those planet’s with all the rocks and desert sand. I’m also adding an mp3 player at the bottom of the base with the same voice dialog as the big guy’s version.

I would love to have or be able to mock up a Four Foot Jupiter 2 to scale with the diorama that I’m sketching in my mind. If you know of anyone who has a 4 foot J2, please let me know!!

Be safe!

I am currently working on a mini 1/6 scale copy of my battle damaged Lost in Space B9 Robot. It’s going to look really good. I’m rigging up the animation, lights, etc.. It will look exactly alike to full size version. Check out the work in progress.
Best always!

Here are the builds that I have made throughout the years. These are all different b9 robots. They say your never too old to learn. Well, I will give you a quick story behind all these robots.

I grew up watching Lost in Space as most of us did. The robot was my hero! When I was 6, I would cut out paper shapes and glue them together to build myself a LIS ROBOT! In 1984, I was a teen in High School. I had several VHS tapes of the show. One day, I took a look at the end credits, paused it, noticed 20th Century Fox in L.A. so I decided to call to ask if they had the robot from lost in space, the secretary said “hold on and let me patch you to the warehouse department, they may have something there.

I then spoke to the warehouseman...
