I believe its Klatu from The Day the Earth Stood Still in the top row, about 5 from the left. Glowing light that goes back and forth, kinda like Kitt the car did decades later.

Almost. Klaatu was the humanoid alien -- the robot is Gort.

Not quite. They're the evil Bill and Ted from "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey".

OK, got a few more that I think have been missed (sorry if I missed someone else giving them):

Kryten from Red Dwarf
A Scutter, also from Red Dwarf
Bubo (the owl) from Clash of the Titans (original version)
The butler robot on the right looks like one out of Sleeper (Woody Allen's character pretends to be one at one point)
Evil Edna (television set from Willo the Wisp - British kids programme)
Marvin (someone's already got him, but there are two: TV and film versions)
Ludwig (bizarre cartoon - that's the egg with the violin)
Nono from Ulysses 31
Another Wallace & Gromit character - the cooker is from A Grand Day Out
Smash robot (instant potato advert)


And I'm going to completely kill any credibility I've got by recognising Noo-Noo from Tellytubbies.

Yes there is! Near the front, about a third of the way across. Sergeant Major Zero to be specific (with a little help from Google )

Edit: add Metal Mickey as well

I tried to find ones no one else did and I also gave directions.




Box from the movie Logans Run is the bluish silver robot 3rd on the right robot Bill and Ted.

Scooter from the GoBots is the red one behind C3PO.

The rusty colored robot to the right of Robby the Robot is from the movie Judge Dredd.

Second to the left of Marvin , the little white one with big jaw, that's a Mouser from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Two below Robot Bill is Crow T Robot from Mystery Science theater 3000.

Tom Servo is to the left of Twiki from Buck Rogers.

Two to the right of the 80's Cylon is the robot from Return to Oz, the copper-ish one.

Two above the Return to Oz robot I think is GlaDOS from Portal

White robot 3rd over from R2D2 is T-Bob from the cartoon M.A.S.K.

Tin Man from Wizard of Oz is in there, too.

I also think the robot on top of Marvins head is from the movie Batteries Not Included.

Right side of image 3 robots down from the robot from Sleeper, the one with big eyes and a boxing glove, that's Uncle Paulie's robot from Rocky 4.

Maria is from the movie Metropolis and is holding hands with C-3PO.
