РОБОТЫ - Comrades of Steel

Robotni - Comrades of Steel.

Very cool Soviet-era poster.

Brings back memories of my Archie the Man of Steel comics in the 70ies.

    Kamradni Staln - Robotni

    Archie te man of steel indeed!
    Makes you wonder if they nicked it off that comic at that time.
    Also some Robocop and Bicenennial Man feeling to it.

    I also wonder what the addressed USSR men (and women) at that time though and felt (or were supposed to feel)

    And what is the translation of the text below?
    Makes you (or at least me) curious doesn't it?
    I am going to find out and will let you know.

    As promised below the translation:

    No fear to enter a battle for life or death...
    We will break the world down with force...
    To its foundation and then...
    We will build our new world...
    Who was nothing can get anything...
