Check out the original cover of Astounding Stories from October 1953. The artist, Frank Kelly Freas, redrew the image in 1977 for the Queen News Of The World album, and whilst it is a great shame he died in 2005, I hope he was spared the sight of what a colossal balls up Parlophone made of the album cover for the CD re-release, whereby what had been a beautiful gatefold image of the full figure of the robot ended up chopped in two with the lower half rotated 90%.
