        "Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine" was a VERY cheesey
beach blanket movie in the 1960's that featured an evil scientist
who created robot bikini babes. One might even call them a prototype
sexaroids.
Considering the ones in the second movie had seduction routines. That's
probably true. 
        From Leonard Maltin's movie reviews -
"Mad scientist tries to make a fortune manufacturing lifelike lady robots to
marry wealthy men. Good chase scene, but otherwise just silly. Panavision."

        Dr Goldfoot himself was played by the great actor and
horror movie star Vincent Price. He considered it one of the most
_fun_ movies he'd ever worked on.
I loved the scene where he was being punched out by a breifcase.
        It guest stars the singer and 60's teen heart-throb Frankie
Avalon, and was one of a string of beach movies made during the 60's.
The second movie had the guest star Fabian
        Lots of Beach Party movie regulars pop up - Harvey Lembeck, Annette
Funicello, etc.

        The sequel, "Dr Goldfoot and the Girl Bombs", made in Italy, wasn't
as good, but featured WONDERFUL scenes where Mr. Price stole the show
and chewed the scenery.
Oh yeah.
        The tag lines,

"Don't Touch!..These are Booby Bombs (Booby traps with curves)"

and

"The girls with the Thermo-Nuclear Navels!"

make these two movies hilarious tie-ins with Bubblegum Crisis. Silvie with
her neutron-bomb armed mecha, the sexaroids themselves, a mad scientist..
And Goldfoot seems to be able to come back even more often than Largo.
it's just TOO perfect.
Not again.  <sigh>Oh well.  A short fic boomeranged on me again. I just
put this up to see how many flashbacks I could induce.  Should I
continue with this? 

Regardless, I will keep working on my other fics.
