green yellow blue RED [officially cancelled. can i get an f]

You set the autopilot to GALAXY TRANSPORTATION. The ship docks itself. The problem is, NO ONE CAN SEE IT.
You're greeted by a human in a GALAXY TRANSPORTATION uniform.

You're guided to a booth. Sitting here is a FUTURUM MODEL ROBOT. They look happy!
The poor FUTURUMS are being heavily oppressed. Some are basically becoming slaves to human and robotic hands alike. There's a lot of protests, both good and bad. It's gotten to the point where people are beginning to kill them by jamming knives into their ports.
You briefly worry for this new person.

You have 300 US DOLLARS.

The writer incredibly proves against this!
You haven't even seen him for 4 panels yet! It takes a lot more than a brief introduction to get to know a person!

test source btw 4 all ur mary sue needs





Sick!!!
Okay, this is silly.

You cannot go to Manu Robotic's home base without a meeting being called. You'd look suspicious and probably be kicked out.
However, you can access the database on your ELECTRASCREEN TECHNICOLOR.


Manu robots were the first singularity-achieving bots to exit the beta testing stage after the NEW WORLD'S WAR ended in 7010. They were made quickly, but reached SINGULARITY MODE very fast, in which that point they could develop their minds and learn by themselves. They were made to be PEACEKEEPERS and help those effected by the NWW. Thus, they were made as humanlike as possible, and over 90% of the old versions hit total sentience by the year 7019.

The downsides of the old models is that they weren't perfect. They have no sense of TOUCH or SMELL.

The new models were in beta by late 7026 and exited beta by early 7027, the fastest beta exit on the planet.
These were fitted with a new sense of TOUCH, could HEAR infinitely better compared to the old models, hit total sentience TWICE AS FAST (at around 7031, over 90% of the models were sentient), and were pre-trained, so the second a model was let into the public it had already reached singularity.

The new models are distinguished often by their HEART-SHAPED CORES, a trait unique to Manu's new model.

Both models were fitted with paw-like soles, allowing for better speed and traction. Many Manu robots are stars in the track-and-field world.

Old Manu models make up 30% of the robot population.
New Manu models make up 10% of the robot population.

So far, Manu hasn't experimented with HOVER TECHNOLOGY yet, as opposed to all the other major companies out there. They still want to keep their robots as human-like as possible. Plus, robots with hover technology integrated into them have proven to not reach total sentience very quickly. You have an EXCEPTION to that rule, and that would be your friend STORMY.

As far as the original three go... no. They don't.
Even now, with CURIE GOLDBORN'S NEW LAWS OF ROBOTICS in place, they don't.

You're super lucky that the government is NO LONGER OVERSEEING ROBOTIC BETAS (up until the public release beta test), nor that NONE of your robots have hit SINGULARITY or SENTIENCE (aside from Stormy).

When you do have to make these guys pass beta though, you're controlling them from behind the scenes, so they'll pass just fine.
It's all part of your MASTER PLAN.
