Robot Commando Or Zeroids?  Your Choice!

WU is great for reminding me of all the cool stuff I had as a kid that my parents threw away.

I saw the one I had (Zintar) in an antique store last month, no packaging or even "lunar sled": $75.

Damn! Missed out on both of them! 😕

Ideal Toys had what I think was a better product - Mr. Machine. You could disassemble and reassemble the toy. Sort of an engineering primer on how gears worked.

The Zeroids toy sound too much like an anal affliction and Robot Commando looks like an overblown toy trebuchet. And how secret is that missile inside the head when you can see through the cover?

I still have my Robby the Robot toy from Lost in Space. The box is a little worse for wear but he still works.
My son has collected just about every old video game system and cartridges that ever existed (Including that terrible E.T. 2600 cartridge). My old collection is computers dating back to the kit built ones you had to program in hexadecimal.

Hey, BD - Is that the "Robbie" robot with the arms and legs that resemble a string of pool balls that appeared in the "Forbidden Planet" movie, or the robot with the Frisbee head that we are more familiar with? The latter never had a name but was designated as "Robot B-2". Kinda makes you wonder what happened to Robot B-1.

Oh, darn! That name was Robot B-9. Still, what happened to numbers 1 to 8?

Dr.Smith deactivated them. 😉

I'm lucky. I still have both my toys from childhood.

@KDP - It's the one with the larger head and the "pool ball" Michelin man look to it. I will have to dig him up out of storage.

@BD - I liked Robbie. He was more businesslike in his role in "Forbidden Planet".
