Fineas J. Whoopie Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Hi Leo. The coil should be there. Why its missing I can't say. Could be the robot was worked on and the coil was forgotten when it was re assembled - or - it could have been forgotten at the factory. I don't see the missing coil pointing to it being a repro since the repros have the coil as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one has the modern shoes as compared to the one you posted leotoys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fineas J. Whoopie Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 We have seen that repros can have different variations so I can't say for sure there was never a Chinese repro that was issued without the coil. I can say however that most of the Chinese repros you will see have the coil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
