Just because the host body doesn’t have a way to hear you yelling the names of assorted tasty breakfast foods until you find the one that makes it stop, that doesn’t mean the nanogoo itself doesn’t have some sort of sound-receiving function that can serve the same purpose.
Doesn’t mean it does have one, either, of course….
It looks to me to have balanced itself out. Original appearance, 5 legs (3 left, 2 right), one arm (right). Now has 6 legs (though still missing a left foot) and a left and right arm.
If FOOT is also involved things could only get better. (But, of course, all the feet on offer are much to small for FOOT, and you can’t steal FOOT’s lone foot without taking the rest of the, uh, poundabot with it. Hopperbot? What is FOOT’s place in the ontology of fictional robots anyway? I can’t even tell if it counts as a rampager or not. They’re generally mad-insane or mad-angry about something, but FOOT… flattening things with its foot is just what it does. It’s no crazier than, say, crows, which take enormous pleasure in doing things that ultinately result in eating dead bodies.)
Now green ain’t the word for the thing that lacks much appeal.
And this form’s doing in its start unkind.
This ain’t no crazy scheme we know it’s unreal.
And we can see it’s not of human kind.
Crazy arms that reach to grab somebody new,
And those legs and feet are saying it’s not fine.
Those zombie left toes attached to some other living-dead.
And that’s why it’s only Frankenstein.
So please get this tortured thing up off that poor old zombie,
And make with a shove straight to its spine.
Somewhere, those crazy arms will grab somebody new,
And that’s why it’s only Frankenstein.

Well, so that’s what the 30 left toes were for.
Dang it, you beat me to it!
Muha!
Well, there’s all the missing toes.
Esteban also got his arms back. Or somebody’s arms.
What’s this about toes? I don’t remember that.
See http://skin-horse.com/comic/ari-green/ for that.
Oh I get it, it was Unity who’s been stealing parts, or atleast a copy.
… having the same nanogoo as Unity, does it also have an off switch?
I don’t see any ears.
True.
Get out the chain saw.

Yes, I was thinking the same. Also thought that maybe Unity’s ears would act as remote receivers…
… I might be overthinking this.
Is it at the base of the pull-chain looking tail?
Hmm – aside from the tail, it doesn’t look like it has a lot more limbs. Has it been multiplying rather than adding?

Ain’t it funny how art reflects life? This is almost current events.
Almost. Sadly, real life isn’t resolving quite so quickly.
Sir! Sir! There’s an abomination roaming the countryside stealing toes!
Well I guess the game’s… (sunglasses) AFOOT.
(YEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHH!!!!!!)

Q: “What is FOOT’s place in the ontology of fictional robots anyway?”
A: Foot is Foot. One of a kind, and proud of it.
“Foot is Foot and all alone and evermore shall be so.”
Oh! Everything makes sense now!
I was wondering where Brian had wandered off to.
Toetailly awesome entrance.
Rightoe
No, leftoe.
Hum… is that mostly Unity or is that mostly Trinity.?
That poor straw hat. It’s served him well these last 100 years or so.
With all the Oz homage characters in this strip, it’s about time Toetoe finally showed up!

Look at that tail wag!
That’s a happy abomination!
Props to the people who called this a week ago.
Last week?!
I’ll have you know some of us were calling it in April.
If I remember correctly, it was you, Salty who called it first.
