History Main / RoboFamily

* In ''Manga/PrincessResurrection'' each of the royal siblings have there own android who are also called siblings: [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal Flandre, Francisca, Francette, Flanders and Franz]] - and probably several more.

-->-- '''Dr. Thomas Light''', ''ComicBook/MegaMan''

* ''Fanfic/TheBridge'' gives us a {{Cyborg}} variant of the trope with Gigan and Megalon. By merit of having the same creators who made them, both organics and mechanical parts included, the latter considers the former his older brother. Gigan might be a bit less vocal about it, but he does acknowledge the younger kaiju as relation.

* In ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'', [[RobotGirl Chachamaru]] considers [[PerversePuppet Chachazero]] her older sister because both of them were created from Evangeline's magic. She also views all of the robots that her other creators (Chao and Hakase) made as her younger siblings. She also views her three creators as her parents.

* Played with a bit in ''FanFic/MegaManDefenderOfTheHumanRace''.

* In the movie continuity of ''[[Film/TransformersFilmSeries Transformers]]'' there are several nods to the robots having families. Optimus Prime and Megatron are implied to be brothers (whether literal or metaphorical isn't entirely made clear), the 3 Arcee bikes have been referred to as sisters by some sources, Jetfire mentions having a mother and a father (who was apparently "the first wheel"), The Fallen and the Dynasty Of Primes are all brothers and Optimus is a great descendent of one of them. Oh and The Twins, who are... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin robot twins]].

** Also, it was widely speculated that Dr. Light built the three in a sense that he actually wanted to have his own chidren.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/MegaManFullyCharged'' universe, robot hero Aki "Mega Man" Light has a human father and sister, while one of the robot antagonists, Drill Man, is said to have a robot father.

* ''VideoGame/MegaMan'': The next most famous example, Mega Man/Rockman, Roll, and Proto Man/Blues are all considered siblings, as it wasn't obvious from the ThemeNaming. Doctor Light is usually considered to be a father to all of them.

* A trio of mech toys being considered a family is a RunningGag in ''Manga/MyNeighborSeki''. The toys are Seki's, and he (eventually Yokoi as well) treat them all like a family unit and create escapades for them.

* ''Fanfic/EmpathTheLuckiestSmurf'' has the Clockwork Smurf family, featuring the original Clockwork Smurf, Clockwork Smurfette, their offspring Baby Clockwork Smurf, and hundreds of other Clockwork Smurfs.

* The ''VideoGame/MagicalGirlLyricalNanohaAsPortable'' series has the Eltrian Gears, a.k.a, [[spoiler:Amitie and Kyrie Florian, who were created by an intelligient, bumbling scientist who accidentally overdid their personality chips and so decided to raise them as his daughters]].

* ''Webcomic/{{SSDD}}'': The [[KillerRobot Inlay]] [[ChessMotifs King]] "Arthur" refers to his retinue of custom Knights as his "sons" (named after Knights of the Round Table, naturally), and calls the fabricator AI that built him his "mother" to annoy her.

* Data and Lore were "brothers" on ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' and both acknowledged their creator Dr. Soong as their father. And later Data made an android of his own named Lal, who was his "daughter." Dr. Soong's wife Julianna Tainer is treated as Data's mother when she visits ''Enterprise'' to share embarrassing stories about him. [[spoiler: She's actually an android duplicate of the original Dr. Julianna, who was fatally injured by the Crystalline Entity.]]

* Data and Lore were "brothers" on ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' and both acknowledged their creator Dr. Soong as their father. And later Data made an android of his own named Lal, who was his "daughter."

* The various members of the E-100 series in ''[[SonicAdventureSeries Sonic Adventure]]'' are considered siblings. This becomes weird at the end of E-102's story, when [[spoiler:it turns out that the bird powering his body is part of the same family as the bird powering his older brother]].
