Composition
Bender's composition as stated in the 'Role' section of this article differs from that stated in the 'Composition' section and both fail to mention Bender's osmium content. During the 4 production seasons Bender (and the Professor) claim that he is:
- 40% Zinc (Fry and the Slurm Factory)
- 40% Titanium (A Head in the Polls)
- An iron/osmium alloy with a 0.04% nickel impurity (A Pharaoh to Remember)
- 30% Iron (The 30% Iron Chef)
- 40% Dolomite (Jurassic Bark)
I thought I could change the article to include this information however I'm not sure how to go about it... especially how much should be included in the 'Role' section and its wording. Thoughts? --Marshmellis (talk) 14:54, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
"First born son"
There's a bit of disputed text that I added about the short sequence in BwaBB that shows bender's son- I think it's fairly obviously a reference to the biblical story about the plague of the firstborn, but I do agree it needs a source. I think the best bet for one would be in the audio commentary- anyone own the dvd and would be willing to take a listen to that scene? ~ L'Aquatique[talk] 00:39, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
- From what I can remember they ponder how Bender can possibly have a son, and suggest that there are possibly more children. I don't recall any mention of biblical stories or even where the inspiration for that came from. Might double check though. --.:Alex:. 21:03, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Tortoise (Aka, the Blade Runner test)
I was just watching The Crimes of the Hot, and it occurred to me that the bit when he cries about the turtles migrating to holland it's a reference to Blade Runner with that test they do to detect Replicants. So, if anyone is better at writing than me, i reckon it should go in there somewheres. 70.179.98.58 (talk) 02:28, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
