Pimpbot 5000 was the reason I started watching Conan in the first place. I think what I loved most about this character was the awkwardness with everyone involved, from Conan and Andy's "oh shit this sounded so much funnier in the writing room" looks to the audience's confused laughter. And yet, Pimpbot 5000 became everyone's favorite.
True, but if I'm not mistaken Triumph sort of made his impact after they "retired" the early mascots like Pimpbot 5000 and Masturbating Bear, etc. for the first time.
