Querying the Hivemind - What are these from?
Querying the Hivemind - What are these from?
#1
Question 
Welcome to another installment of "Okay, what's it from?"

Zippo has 14 digital models available for download on this page. I only recognize half of them. What are the others from, if anything?

* HAL 9000 (2001: A Space Odyessy)
* cartoon submarine (Yellow Submarine)
* incom for DAZ Aiko3 (is this generic?)
* ayashii kikai (?)
* time machine (obviously something based on Wells's book, but which adaptation?)
* ultra eyes (?)
* monolith (2001: A Space Odyessy)
* Shotaro's controller (Tetsujin 28-go, a.k.a. "Gigantor")
* memekurage (Is this just a jellyfish, or is it from something?)
* pitch fork (generic devil)
* ufo (is this generic?)
* ray gun (looks generic to me)
* iron rod (generic oni's club)
* screw type (?) EDIT: Mamorien has IDed this one.

The only one of those I can help with is the "screw type": judging by its position in a human arm, I'm pretty sure it's the titular screw from Yoshiharu Tsuge's 1968 surrealist manga Neji-shiki (basis for the 1998 movie Screwed). Now you know, and knowing is half the Mandatory Educational Content Segment™.

Thanks! I've updated the freebie wiki listing, giving you credit for identifying the item.
