Dose anyone remember the name of this kids cartoon?

I don’t remember much because i was quite young, but here you go…
Im sure that the characters were robots with TVs for heads, i clearly remember a yellow one with a red bow on her head that spun or she could have been red with a yellow bow… something like that lol, and there was a small pink dog robot that was a camcorder (the lens was its nose)
That’s pretty much all i can remember…
If you know the name or what it could be PLEASE tell me :)
thanks

How do I stop looking into things too much and stop being a social robot?

How do I stop looking into things too much and stop being a social robot?

I used to be a natural and out of my shell now I’m back in my shell and can’t seem to find my way out. I’m all out of ideas and just want to be natural around people instead of trying too hard or trying too hard to not seem to be trying too hard :S

Steps in customizing vinyl toys?

Please, I just want clear, general steps in creating great custom vinyl toys. I went on the Kid Robot forums and browsed around hoping it would help, but it was too unorganized and confusing for me. Keep it simple also.

Preparation:
What should I do after I cleaned the figure thoroughly with water and soap? Sand then primer or vice-versa? Recommended brands? Kind of primer/sand paper?

Painting:
Trying to stick with acrylic spray paint for now, but not sure which brand will provide the best finish that’s also inexpensive (<$10 a can). Recommended brands? Best brand for metallic finish? Glossy finish? Flat/matte finish? Don’t want to mess with brushes, I loathe brushes.

Finish:
Best clear coat for acrylic and vinyl? Something durable that won’t chip easily. Recommended brands? What are the different kinds of clear coats for the different kind of finishes?

Etc. (not necessary, but welcomed):
Tips and advice in general when it comes to painting. My goal in life is to pretty much become a great designer and artist.

Hoping to hear from you guys! Also, I’d love to see some of your work too! Thanks! :)
