SYNOPSIS
Reginald the Robot is a story of technology gone bad. Reginald The Robot, is created by Sourdrops the evil candy store owner, as the perfect child, in his plan to replace horrible children. Things go wrong when Muff, Sourdrop’s incompetent helper, inserts a jelly bean into Reginald’s head at the moment of creation, rather than the final transistor. But all is made right when the children befriend Reginald and Muff solves Reginald’s craving for candy.
