Avengers: Age of Ultron

He's made of adamantium for one thing. The big threat is his intelligence. He's smarter than any hero in the marvel universe. And he improves himself and gets smarter all the time.

Because of this, There is a long running theme in marvel that no matter what, Ultron eventually wins. We've seen this in alternate futures like the recent Age of Ultron arc.

So yeah, he's a robot, but he's an incredible powerful robot made of I breakable metal that is always making himself stronger and smarter.

The reason Ultron is one of my favorite villains is that he's one of the only villains who can go toe to toe with Thor, yet can still be vulnerable if in a small way, to the less powerful avengers.

That's always been the biggest problem with Avengers. Thor's a character who has gone one on one with Galctus, celestials, and Ego the living Planet. How do you create a villain that can challenge Thor, yet isn't horribly more powerful than the rest of the avengers.

Ultron is usually defeated due to the combination of Thors strength, iron mans intelligence, Caps strategic prowess, unique talents of other members, and of course Ultrons underestimation, and lack of understanding of the human spirit.

That's why I don't like it when he shows up in solo books. It should always take the whole team to beat him.
