target Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I told Jay Brotter to try to get Metal House robots to normal pricing ! They have done some amazing stuff over the years . They should have worked on there price points which I have been saying for years and improve there boxes not , glue down a color picture on a box . Also as things where changing the quality of the paint was poor . But all my robots came from Jay , and I have to say there all Awesome ! By the way Roboto a lot of the robots you posted that are Prototypes are in my personal collection so you won’t be seeing them for sale or offered ever again . Also for the group all these MH robots you can google and see there versions that were sold , at a great price $89. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted January 12, 2018 Author Share Posted January 12, 2018 This was another great version which was for sale in Japan yet never made it here for sale. How many were made is not known perhaps 3 or 5 at the most the cost at the time was around $500.00. Also the bottom area lit up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roboto Posted January 16, 2018 Author Share Posted January 16, 2018 The price was high on those versions. They should have also made a nice run on the Dino version like this one in gold the cost on the above white version was around $500.00 and the first ones to have that lower light area.
