No, not Yatta-Ruff. It's 1-Rover-1 Week here on Gatchamania!!!

Okay, let's put up some classic pictures of the bolt-eating canine. Let's see...

Here is Rover sitting around watching Zark. Notice the excited expression in his eyes.

 

Here Rover salutes G-Force, emulating Zark's beloved mannerism:

 

And last.... who could every forget River's tail-spinning helicopter move as he flies across the room?

 

Okay... who wants to contribute anything about 1-Rover-1?

I always thought it would be great to have a dog like Rover.

I think a robotic dog would be fun - with the added bonus of not having to take it for walks in the rain or clean up after it. Lol

Does anyone remember those robotic dogs that came out years ago? I think they might have been called gizmos or something like that. They did not do much except walk and bark, but at that time that was something exceptional.

I'm sure you have to clean up after 1-Rover-1 too, but given what he eats, he probably poops metal alloy. Wink

Sounds just like 1-Rover-1! Just add the whirly helicopter tail.... ROFL 2

Hmmm... what to say about 1-Rover-1? I can't think of anything except "Nyap, nyap, nyap!"

Suddenly I picture Zark responding to him..."What did you say 1-Rover-1? Mark has fallen into a well and he can't get out? Lead me to him!" (oh yeah...that's Lassie Wink3 )

Don't know anything about Rover... but I do like the spinning tail.

From what I remember, it did have a whippy tail like Rover. Unfortunately it never seemed to fly while I was watching. (In my childish imagination all my toys came alive in the middle of the night and had time to play by themselves. So who knows how the dog moved in the middle of the night.)

Yay! Rover! Ya know, if there'd been a Rover icon on the list of choices, I might have picked that one instead of Zark. Wink

At least Rover never claimed he was the reason the team existed or that he should be a member of the team.

Yes! that is what I was talking about.
Only the one I had when I was a child was blue.

If this works this is an image of the one my brother had. (It matched his Blueberry MAC) I had one similar to the image you showed.

LOL
No nothing like that.
Probably a very early version of the first one you showed. Limited functions since the computer age was just beginning. What my brother and I were given was considered very futuristic at the time. (remember back then computers with any size of memory were still the size of small rooms.)
