Trivia

• Along with the Traveling Merchant, the Cyborg is the only NPC that sells something post-Moon Lord (Portal Gun Station), making him the only town NPC to sell an end-game item.
• Almost all of the Cyborg's names are letters in the Greek alphabet. Naming robots and cyborgs with Greek letters is common in science fiction.
• The names Syn-x and A.N.D.Y. are likely references to Re-Logic lead developers Whitney "Cenx" Spinks and Andrew "Redigit" Spinks.
• The name T-3E0 is most likely a reference to the Star Wars droid, C-3P0.
• The name Niner-7 may be a reference to the character Seven of Nine from Star Trek: Voyager.
• The name Fender is a reference to the 2005 movie Robots.

Quotes

• "My expedition efficiency was critically reduced when a projectile impacted my locomotive actuator." (This is a reference to the popular "Arrow in the Knee" quote from the Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, where a guard tells you: “I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow in the knee.”)
• "And then Unit 492-8 said, "Who do you think I am, Unit 472-6?" HA HA HA"
• "I built myself a taste mechanism, so I can drink some ale!"
• "Have you defeated the Wall of <name of Guide>?" (Reference to the rumor that the Guide is really the Wall of Flesh)
• "This sentence is false , or is it?" (A common logical paradox often associated with robots).
• "Sometimes I come off a bit... Get it? a bit?"
• "Sure, me and [Name of Pirate] are pals, but I hate it when his parrot does his business on me. That stuff's corrosive!" (Only if Pirate is present)
• "So that "punk" lookin' chick is an inventor, eh? I think I could show her a thing or two!" (Only if Steampunker is present)

During a Party

• "This party is going to be nuts, maybe even bolts!"
