"Spaceys"?
Where is the source that states this is the name of species? Looking at the cover story chapter titles, it seems that only the First Lieutenant is called "Spacey".

First Lieutenant Spacey regrets his desertion in the face of the enemy (Chapter 436)

First Lieutenant Spacey, Defeated by a Space Pirate (Chapter 440)

And we know the other three robots have names (Cosmo, Galaxy and Macro), so I don't see any reason to assume Spacey is the name of the whole species. 10:33, September 20, 2013 (UTC)

Maybe we should rename this page "Spaceys (Robots)" and create a disambiguation page as well. 10:40, September 20, 2013 (UTC)

I think when the other spacey's names were revealed they were listed as "Spaceys". I don't have the databook at hand reach now, but I will check it as soon as possible.

"Spaceys" is not the species. It is the name of the First Lieutenant. They are Karakuri ningyō or Automata, or mechanical dolls. --Klobis (talk) 06:32, September 21, 2013 (UTC)

In that case, should we just move this under a subtitle under cyborgs? 06:46, September 21, 2013 (UTC)

Then why for so much time we called them spaceys? And was it said that they are mechanical dolls (and where) or simply their race was never mentioned hence we have to call them that way?

It's from Blue Deep (Youtube video of the page here). I think the summaries for Cosmo/Galaxy/Macro say "Created by Dr. Tsukimi. A soldier/shogun/knight-type Karakuri ningyo". No idea why no-one's noticed until now though. 11:28, September 21, 2013 (UTC)

In Blue Deep p.95, Spacey is said to be a mechanical doll (機械人形). In p.214, the other three are said to be Karakuri ningyō (カラクリ人形). --Klobis (talk) 11:35, September 21, 2013 (UTC)
