Actually I was always expecting him to shoot lasers from them - which, ironically is exactly what happens in one Japanese-only episode with Cobalt!! Jeffbert posted an image with him shooting lasers from his points!

That's a very strange coincidence. I also had that assumption when my pop first showed me Astro Boy as a kid.
I'll have to look for that image of Cobalt in the forums since you mentioned it. I don't remember seeing it but I do own the box set of the original show from the 60s. I also have the one from the 80s show.
Need to watch it again, this place is bringing back a lot of childhood memories.

Toasting marshmallows . . . really!! Just bend up one arm, and fire a jet for the flame
S'mores anyone?
And here's that image of Cobalt firing lasers from his points!!!
It's from this thread (182 Demented Cobalt)

Oh wow! I don't think I've seen that before. I do remember stumbling across threads like those before on Google.
Props to the person making those.

hi- but i thought lasers were intense beams of "light amplified by simulated emission of radiation"- don't blame ASTRO after what she said- hugs everyone sweetly
