It’s that time of the month again, as November is soon upon us! As with previous months, there was all kinds of weird and wonderful robot-related activity online during October, so today we’re rounding up some of the absolute best examples from twitter for your viewing pleasure. They’re presented here in date order (well, kinda). Have a great month!

Winston’s art is always a pleasure to behold, and here there’s the extra thrill of seeing the vastly under-utilised Strika brought to life so expertly!

OK, so this tweet is from a couple of months ago, but as it was RTed back again this month it’s getting thrown in here (also because it’s too good not to share!).
