Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots in popular culture

"In the Disney/Pixar's 1999 film Toy Story 2, Buzz Lightyear and the Andy's toys are searching in Al's office in Al's Toy Barn in the Tri-County area for Sheriff Woody. A springy dog named, Slinky Dog, comes across the Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots toy playset and asks them if they had seen Sheriff Woody(Slinky describes Sheriff Woody as 'a cowboy doll with a bad arm'), only for the two to argue about who was being asked, and fight, with Blue Bomber defeating Red Rocker until the boxing bell rings and the fight was over. This is also a reference to the infamous Tyson-Holyfield fight, where Mike Tyson bit off part of Evander Holyfield's ear."

I'm gonna go ahead and delete that last sentence. I don't believe it, it's uncited, and I've never seen that claim elsewhere. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Th900bbepr (talk • contribs) 21:51, 29 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I also have a problem with the reference to their appearance in Mr Incredible's room and one of them is "voiced" by John Lasseter? Um, John Lasseter didn't direct The Incredibles. Brad Bird did that. This section also isn't strong on citations.John Simpson54 (talk) 14:20, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Origins of game

I just took a reference out of the article about the game being based on the short story "Steel" by Richard Matheson. While the publication date of May 1956 does precede the manufacturing of the toy, there was no reference given and I can find none to substantiate the statement, so I'm taking it out until someone else can prove otherwise.
