Irona

Irona is the robot maid who works for Richie Rich's family in the comic book series and in the Hanna-Barbera cartoon adaptation. She was voiced by Joan Gerber, who also lent her voice to Richie's mother, Regina Rich.
In the comic book series, Irona is just a simple robot maid who is very powerful and serves as Richie's bodyguard, along with Cadbury, and is able to help Richie whenever he is in trouble. However, in the animated series, she can transform her body into virtually anything, when needed, in a similar fashion to characters in The Robonic Stooges and Challenge of the GoBots. Sometimes her transformation is seen in action. Many transformations are preceded by Irona shooting steam from her ears accompanied by a steam whistle sound. Whenever Irona receives a request from Richie, she will usually quickly convert into a jet plane, and fly to him. In a Season 3 episode, she started to date Suavo, and in her final appearance in an original episode, in Season 4, Suavo was considering proposing marriage to her, but ultimately declined due to her busy agenda. Whenever she needs an upgrade, a repair, or any sort of technical assistance, she goes straight to Professor Keenbean. On one occasion he gave her a childlike form so she could understand what it was like to be a child. Despite being a robot, Irona does some things that normally only humans can do, such as blow bubbles and blush.
