Tinny Tim is an unlucky orphan robot who lives on the streets of New New York. He uses a crutch (which seems to replace his arm) to help himself walk. Despite the hardships he endures, he seems to be accepting of his lot in life.

Trivia

  • Based on the character of Tiny Tim in Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol"
  • Crippled foot switches sides throughout the show
  • In the episode 'The Devil's Hands Are Idle playthings' he is seen selling newspapers on two occasions
  • His name appeared on the Robot Devil's "Wheel of Robots", but he has only one hand to switch with Fry. (However this could be a way on how the Robot Devil could have cheated Fry if the name was chosen)
