TV Robot with Outer-Space Visuals
The giant (12") TV Robot is a battery-powered glossy black robot with an old-fashioned, cathode-ray-tube screen in its torso.
When switched on, the robot advances, then suddenly stops before its CRT screen lights up, scrolling far-out space scenes while playing eerie sci-fi music. It's like a groovy magic lantern show, and weirdly entertaining for all its anachronisms.
The TV Robot is a recent 1990s model from Metal House, a Japanese company that inherited the tin-plate robot manufacturing technology of Horikawa and other famous brands.
TV Robot is all metal and is made in Japan by Metal House. Battery operated. (Batteries not included.)
This collector's item is recommended for ages 15+.
Dimensions: 12 x 6 x 3 inches (29 x 14 x 7 cm)
Weight: 900g (without batteries)
