It's always the ankles with the Greeks.
Starting to think sandals aren't ideal for fighting in.

[followthewhiterabbit]

Poor guy. I feel sad for our robot dude.

[sophiefrankis]

Yo, Greece! Stop putting weaknesses in ankles!

[MartianMothman]

And then Talos used his own giant brass robot called the Numidium to conquer all of Tamriel

[sifilore]

So that's what that metal giant was in 60's Jason and The Argonauts.

[Billyjack-Two-Crows]

"The Attractive Woman" The most powerful devastating profound weapon on Earth.

[danielseelye]

Interesting design seems in the vein on "The Iron Giant"

[TheSkyCrystals]

You can’t just end it like that!… well technically I guess that is the ultimate end for a robot…

[IberianCraftsman]

travel back in time, welding the nail in place: "now you are immortal sir, as gratitude you just need to help me with some things hehe~"

[thehellenicneopagan]

What does a robot do after a one night stand? 🤷🏻‍♀️
-He nuts and bolts! 🤣😂😅

... I'll see myself out... 🤭

[libzbond]

I like the fact this version of Talos shown looks like a more Greek-themed Iron Giant.

[Unknown_person.]

Moral: "Don't trust everyone."

[SlothinAintEasy]

Talos the mighty! Talos the unerring! Talos the unassailable! To you we give praise!

[freyzerb.castro]

Fun fact, the Spanish word for ankle (Talón) kinda sounds like Talos

[cobaltprime]

Why does he look like the Iron Giant? Are you trying to make me sad?

[Alex_Fishman]

I always imagined Talos as an actual bronze man with a nail in his ankle and blood that looks like molten metal, something like darkshine alloy from One Punch Man

[ALMIGHTY_EDIOT]

Bro this is probably the IRON GIANT'S original origin knowing that we never knew where the iron giant really came from🤔🤔🤔

[danielcastillo]

How many times did Greek poets watch a guy being decimated at the ankle to be like "Alas, the ultimate weakness"

[BovineDesigns]

Hephaustus builds his robots the same way Doofenshmirtz does.

[therealsquimby]

Once again, a Greek figure defeated by a weakness on the back of the foot.
