Superheroes come in all different kinds of flavors. One such flavor is robots. Simply put, a robot superhero is a robot who performs superheroics. How and why a robot acts as a superhero varies. Sometimes, the robot is specifically built, designed, and programmed to protect and save humanity. Other times, the robot was made to do evil acts but instead turns on their creator upon realizing said creator's true intentions. Androids and robots are commonly thought of as cold, emotionless, and not caring much for humans beyond following orders. As such, a bot that actively fights crime and saves (human) lives can come as a bit of a shock to those with the aforementioned mindset. Compare Benevolent A.I., Cheerful A.I., Robot Buddy, Superpowered Robot Meter Maids, Super Robot Genre, and Virtual Sidekick, all of which can easily overlap with this. Particularly large ones may cross into Humongous Mecha territory. |

Played with in Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow. Iron Man, prior to his retirement, built robotic versions of the Avengers (dubbed the Iron Avengers) as potential replacements for when the Avengers died or retired. However, after Ultron took over the world, they were unsafe to be used and stored away. Years later, they are reactivated and (though they try to fight Ultron) ultimately corrupted and taken over by Ultron. The wayward android turned them into his foot soldiers, but they still retained their Avengers-theming and abilities. | |

Skylanders: All of the Skylanders are viewed as the heroes and protectors of the Skylands due to their powers and courage, and some Skylanders of the tech element are robots. Drill Sergeant, the Arkeyan machine from the first game, was made to serve his master whom he marks as Terrafin. When Terrafin tells him not to serve him, he obliges and uses his powers to help the Skylands freely. Bouncer from Skylanders: Giants is established as being one of the original Skylanders. Originally built as a Roboto-ball player, when the Arkeyans destroyed his home, he started using his abilities to protect the Skylands. Magna Charge is a magnetic robot Skylander who uses his powers to aid others. As he is a part of the Swap Force, he can even swap half of his body with another Swap Force member. Both Trap Masters of the tech element are robots. Gearshift is was originally built to serve as the princess of Metallana, but she was too adventurous and became a hero instead. She uses a gear made out of traptanium to fight and capture villains who threaten Skylands. When Jawbreaker was built, he had a peaceful time until trolls attempted to steal a train for nefarious purposes, prompting Jawbreaker to take action. Noticing this, Eon made Jawbreaker a Skylander and a part of the Trap Team due to his fists being made of traptanium. |

The Robonic Stooges, originally a segment of Hanna-Barbera's Skatebirds show (from 1977), is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. The Three Stooges as robot superheroes who bumble their way through their missions with mixed results. (An earlier attempt, Superstooges, never got past the concept stage. Also has nothing to do with the 1974 Italian release Superstooges vs. the Wonder Women.) | |

Overwatch: Orisa is a repurposed OR15 defense omnic that was bought, rebuilt, and upgraded by a Child Prodigy to be the guardian of the city of Numbani, where humans and robots freely co-exist. Echo was designed by Overwatch scientist Dr. Liao to prove that omnics were not inherently threatening to humanity. In addition to being able to fly and use various weaponry on her own, she is a literal Do-Anything Robot designed to be able to learn any task and replicate it by perfect mimicry. When Overwatch disbanded, she was put back "on ice" until freed by Cole Cassidy to rejoin the new, outlaw version of Overwatch seeking to save the world. |

Top 10: One of the first cops in Neopolis was Steelgauntlet, who claimed to be horrifically burned scientist Frank Chambers, forced to encase his mortally wounded body inside a bulky suit of Powered Armor. In reality, Chambers died years ago, and Steelgauntlet was a robot he created before his death, though this fact was never disclosed during his time due to Neopolis' anti-robot policies. In the modern day, Girl One found more acceptance, but only because she looked and acted mostly human; her successor, Girl Two, quit after being expected to replace One despite not having her years of experience, and another robotic officer, Joe Pi, faces constant harassment because he can't pass for human by any standards. | |

The Avengers: The Vision was originally created by the evil bot Ultron to infiltrate and kill the Avengers. However, Vision later had a change of heart (so to speak) and became an Avenger himself. There was an entire team of robot superheroes in Avengers A.I.. Aaron Stack a.k.a. the Machine Man is a superheroic android with several robot abilities, such as telescopic limbs and various weaponry, built into his body. Jocasta is a gynoid created by the villainous Ultron to be his mate, but she instead defected and joined the Avengers. |

Mega Man X: The Maverick Hunters are Reploids with the task of detaining and exterminating mavericks that threaten the earth. Among the Maverick Hunters is the very first Reploid, Mega Man X, who was built by Dr. Light 100 years ago to serve as the earth's protector. Zero was initially a robot built by Dr. Wily in an effort to one-up Dr. Light. However, Zero proved to be too unstable and dangerous, forcing Dr. Wily to seal him away. 100 years later, Zero has a fight with the Maverick Hunter leader Sigma, the resulting fight causing their moralities to swap. As such, Zero becomes a top level Maverick Hunter while Sigma becomes the leader of the Mavericks. |

The Iron Giant: Played with. The Giant is not a traditional superhero in that he was originally built as an alien war machine and arrived on Earth for reasons unknown and with his memory erased. However, throughout the film, he undergoes Character Development inspired by Hogarth and embraces Superman as a role model to live up to. In the film's finale, he performs a Heroic Sacrifice to save the townspeople from incoming doom in a scene so memorable and iconic that some critics have dubbed this film "the best Superman movie in history". | |
