Tetsuo (both of 'em) and their progeny (Pinocchio 964, etc)
Robocop (three films), Cyborg (three so far) and Cyborg Cop (also three)
Hardware
Robotrix
Blade Runner (maybe)

for TV shows: Six Million Dollar Man, Star Trek: Next Generation (sort of:
Data isn't a true cyborg and Geordie doesn't have enough artificial to

this is also a very common theme in anime
