EIOSIS Vocoder has some vintage robotic sounds.
starplugs vocoder
waldorf vocoder,
novation supernova vocoder
etc...
i dont like the tc fireworks vocoder.

vocoders can be done with modular synths.
just a bunch of band pass filters like a graphic eq, each with a envelope follower, controlling bandpass filters with vca of another signal.

SignalA-->Bandpass1A-->Env.Follower1-->VCA-->Bandpass1B-->SignalB
A-->Bandpass2A-->Env.Follower2-->VCA-->Bandpass2B-->B
A-->Bandpass3A-->Env.Follower3-->VCA-->Bandpass3B-->B
A-->Bandpass4A-->Env.Follower4-->VCA-->Bandpass4B-->B
A-->Bandpass5A-->Env.Follower5-->VCA-->Bandpass5B-->B
etc...
even you can do weird stuff like cross mod, change the Q in the filters, do inverse connections Env1-->Bandpass5, change the frequency of the filters, etc...
