Yes. Added bonus - when you realize that the two Adam Links are standing next to Sonny, also from a version of I, Robot.

Correct. While that marked their sole TV appearance to date, they also ended up being regular foes of the second Doctor in his comic strip, I believe because at the time the strip couldn't secure the rights to use the Daleks.

I loved Battle of the Planets as a kid, but I hated 7-Zark-7 and the even more annoying 1-Rover-1. Years later I learned that BotP was an Americanized recut of Science Ninja Team Gatchaman, and that the two robots were additions to cover the cuts to the story made for American audiences. That revelation explained so much.

It's Zero - if you look you can see his sergeant stripes. Voiced by Windsor Davies, then best known for playing a very loud Sergeant Major in the long running sitcom It Ain't Half Hot Mum.

While I wasn't a fan overall of Terrahawks (the main villains annoyed me), I did like the end sequences where the robots working for each side played a game of Noughts and Crosses (Tic-Tac-Toe to the Americans), with their different shaped bodies representing the X and the O respectively. The Zeroids were the O obviously. And the good guys didn't always win the game.

All new identifications are correct. I've updated the list and deleted images in the first post. We're well over halfway there!

Although the Outer Limits episodes are not based on Asimov's I, Robot but rather on an earlier story of the same title by Otto Binder.

Oh, I know, but the pictorial joke still works. There are a couple of other pictorial jokes in there - the aforementioned example of Cyber-bullying for instance, plus at least one more I can't mention right now because it would identify a character still on the unidentified list.
