'''Telly Vision''' (or '''Telly''' for short)【トンピー】 is [[Chibi-Robo]]'s manager in and'' [[Chibi-Robo! Plug Into Adventure!]]''. He can talk unlike Chibi-Robo and moves around by hovering, using a propeller. Although Telly appears in many of the cutscenes, he never usually moves around with you, but rather, stays at the [[Chibi-House]]. | '''Telly Vision''' (or '''Telly''' for short)【トンピー】 is [[Chibi-Robo]]'s manager in and'' [[Chibi-Robo!

Telly Vision came with Chibi-Robo and the Chibi-House, Telly Vision appears to be the people person, or robot, in Chibi-Robo understanding [[the Sandersons|the Sandersons']] problems with tight finances and being able to feel emotion like sadness and pain. Telly Vision acts almost completely human, besides being a robot. Telly Vision is Chibi-Robo's manager as stated by him. Telly Vision acts cowardly through most of the game, an example is leaving Chibi-Robo damaged after first activating Giga-Robo. A running gag seen in the game is Telly Vision's dream of becoming a singer as making a cardboard tuxedo, making a microphone, practicing signing autographs, and even publishing his own record (his only known song is [[Teriyaki Blues]]) but before he ever gets the chance to sing Teriyaki Blues something happens to disrupt or hurt Telly in the process stopping his singing. | Telly Vision came with Chibi-Robo and the Chibi-House, Telly Vision appears to be the people person, or robot, in Chibi-Robo understanding [[the Sandersons|the Sandersons']] problems with tight finances and being able to feel emotion like sadness and pain.

Telly Vision also has his own [[sticker]]. To get it, you must sit on the mushroom in [[Jenny]]'s room or the stub in the Foyer and listen to his 8 stories. There is a new story every day. After he tells you about him winning the robot idol show, you will be rewarded the Telly Vision sticker. After getting the Telly sticker and the [[Funky Phil]] sticker, you can choose Teriyaki Blues and Telly will sing the full version. Telly Vision developed a crush on [[Mrs. Sanderson]] when he read love letters from [[Sophie]] to [[Drake Redcrest]], mistakenly thinking they were from her to him. Usually, after reading a letter, he would mention "giving her a flower." Later, by the Chibi-House, He would request a flower from Chibi Robo. That night, he can be seen placing the flower on Mrs. Sanderson's pillow. Telly Vision can communicate with Chibi-Robo and Giga-Robo while humans can't (an exception is Chibi-Robo taking out a yes or no sign out of its head). | Telly Vision also has his own [[sticker]].
