History

The King Kong Show

"The Jinx of the Sphinx"

In alliance with the Nomads, Dr. Who placed an electric brain within the Great Sphinx of Giza and programmed it for three full days of destruction. Dr. Who ordered the Robot Sphinx to destroy the Suez Canal with intentions to destroy the other great wonders of the world. Swimming down the Nile River, the Robot Sphinx began to destroy boats and anything else that blocked its path. The Robot Sphinx soon interrupted a tour ship that was carrying Susan Bond and Captain Englehorn as passengers. Dr. Who revealed himself to the Bond family and told them of his plans. In response, Bobby Bond called for King Kong, who emerged from behind a hill. Dr. Who made a quick escape and left the Robot Sphinx to continue destroying the canal. Kong approached the Robot Sphinx just as it was about to destroy the tour ship. He attempted to attack the Robot Sphinx with a palm tree, but it melted it out of his hands with its eye lasers. As the Robot Sphinx needed to recharge its eye lasers after using them, Kong retaliated by forcing the Robot Sphinx under the water. The Robot Sphinx short-circuited and was then thrown across the river by Kong, sinking to the bottom.

Abilities

  • The Robot Sphinx can fire lasers from its eyes. These lasers can melt anything they touch and must be recharged after every time they are used.
