I did a story a while back exploring the possibilities if Gadget was actually a robot. I did two illustrations from it, and I'm really proud of how this one turned out. The emotions come across just how I wanted them to, and I really like how the shading adds such nice depth. Don't cry, little mousie! You're real to us!

Now that's just too cute! A part of me wonders if you have the story lying around. I agree with Convoy, that little golden hearted technical geek made many little boys into furries. Heck, I have the whole series downloaded, and I can still occasionally watch an episode for fun when I'm nostalgic. The Case of the Coo Coo Cola Cult anyone?
Wait, what the fuck? Why isn't furAffinity allowing me to insert links?
Fine, we'll do it the sloppy way:

Good execution of a neat concept. In the story, I liked the way you presented her personality as composed together from separate programs and crudely digitised memories; she does think differently from an organic being, and has a really legitimate psychological reason to think that she's 'not real'. This is more interesting than the typical (sci-fi, particularly fanfic) approach of just making a perfect copy of an organic brain, producing a being with purely cosmetic differences to a normal biological character.
That said, the tech level (nanotech/solid state/perpetual motion) does seem a bit excessive for the series, where most of the items were cobbled together from junk. Do you remember that episode with the cat robot that had a personality created from a game cartridge? I tried reimagining this character along those lines; her brain would be a digital calculator/organiser watch (still popular in 1990...), her power source would be a little motor of the sort that powered the ranger plane, and the rest of her mechanisms would be clockwork and cable linkages.
Actually it would be cool to see a drawing of that, do you do commissions? :)

Well, I did specifically state that Geegaw was taking tech from an advanced research laboratory. And Tom the Robocat was made by just some guy in a junkyard.

I only take commissions of things I think I have the skill level to actually draw. ;)

Yes, that's fine for an in-world justification, but stylistically the series was more about improvised junk technology (for the heroes) and 1950s mad science (for the villains).

Awww, I'm not picky. :)
