:Yeah, they are the only people I can think of that could possibly fit that category though. They might be employees, former employees or just friends of the Professor, perhaps one of them simply rents the professor's spare room (if one exists). If you put that section in, I'd say "Status Unknown" - [[User:Quolnok|Quolnok]] 05:54, 27 April 2008 (PDT)

:It ''does'' seem odd to have employees around that are seen less frequently than even Scruffy. Though it's obvious that they were created as a joke, it does make you wonder who they are. "Friends" feels right to me. --[[User:76.25.219.42|76.25.219.42]] 08:37, 28 April 2008 (PDT)

Buddy13 FW16.png I would like to explore more on the floorplan. I think I could draw up a rough layout and have it be fairly accurate. Other than things like the Angry Dome, they were pretty consistent with where things are (except, in Insane in the Mainframe, Roberto jumps from one window on the inside, and magically comes out a different window on the outside...). Also, I think this article is large enough to remove the Stub notice, what about you?

Yeah, it can certainly be de-stubbed. Have a go at a floor plan if you want, there are a number of problems though. - Quolnok 01:18, 22 May 2006 (PDT)
I'll have a go at scanning the floor plan in the comic (more of a cross section really) at some point. I just got that issue. - Quolnok 00:48, 23 May 2006 (PDT)

Bender

I think really Bender isn't company properity as they never bought him and aslo I am sure in the opening to the movie Hermes said he was some chief of something - Humorbot 0.4 Planet Express Logo.png 09:15, 2 December 2007 (PST)

Actually, Farnsworth says on countless occasions that he owns Bender. Not in the film though, but in several episodes, however, I cannot find a concrete example right now. --SvipTalk 09:24, 2 December 2007 (PST)
I think there is a line to be drawn between the robots, some are owned, some aren't. Whilest the Professor does claim to own Bender in 30% Iron Chef, it may have been the senility. He seems more like a paid employee and wasn't purchased or created by the Professor (like 1-X, the ship and the toaster are). Plus, the term "Assets" implies that he's benificial. He's "never made anyone's life easier and you know it!" - Quolnok 16:53, 21 December 2007 (PST)

Lego Futurama

I stumbled on a website featuring a Lego Planet Express building, ship, and several key characters. In an email correspondence, I discovered that the creator actually used our site (and it's many pictures) as references for the building. Hooray us! And now I"m off to petition the Lego company to make these into official sets that we can all buy. Dammit. --Buddy 13:48, 2 April 2008 (PDT)

Katrina and Xanthor?

I am wondering what role Katrina and Xanthor plays in comparison to the Planet Express company, they appear to be well known of the Professor, but maybe they are just that... friends. Maybe we could leave them with "Unknown Status Employees"? --SvipTalk 05:39, 27 April 2008 (PDT)

Yeah, they are the only people I can think of that could possibly fit that category though. They might be employees, former employees or just friends of the Professor, perhaps one of them simply rents the professor's spare room (if one exists). If you put that section in, I'd say "Status Unknown" - Quolnok 05:54, 27 April 2008 (PDT)
It does seem odd to have employees around that are seen less frequently than even Scruffy. Though it's obvious that they were created as a joke, it does make you wonder who they are. "Friends" feels right to me. --Buddy 08:37, 28 April 2008 (PDT)
