The man.
The robot, note his faded shades.
Lamp at far left, Dekobin (modeled upon Disney's Gepetto) in the middle, & perhaps Mifune Go (Speed Racer) at right. I was thinking he might be Koichi, of #16,
Vehicle, White Planet (8,
Silver Comet), but doubt it.
Now for the abuse of, or perhaps, neglect of the robotic actors:
Far right: Sasuke? Anyway, they are treated cruelly, just tossed into a warehouse when not in use. Definitely an influence on

It seems the star feels threatened by his stuntman.
As I understand it, the Hameggs are the agents for the star & his stuntman.
Oh,

& Starr; far left & far right, respectively.
Far left: Eastwood?
I am just guessing, but I think that Mama & Papa discovered the switch.
Another GIF, waiting to be made.
Chuck Connors?
Rumer has it, that in real life, Sapphire & Nylon were lovers.
