Hey maimo65, how are you!

Here is the robot you noticed - it's one of Brian's creations that I painted.   Here's the 3d thread about that Doctor Satan's robot family.

 

Here's a shot of the big guy with the little cousin of your ARM.   
Cheers!

Really cool to go through the pages of your collection and watch it evolve. Very nice.

[Martian Gil]

Thanks Ratchet :)

The cabinet...uh.   the entire room is a huge mess at the moment - health problems caught me in the middle of re-organizing, cleaning and working on some projects.

Too much juggling, lol.

Soon, i'll catch a breath and get on top of it   

 

Here are a couple that i was lucky to get - thanks go to Ranger.

 

Cheers,

 I have seen those robots already but i can't remember their names. Can you refresh my memory Kirk?  Did the one on the right side loose its feet?

Hi Stephane, they are the pair from Giroplast, made in Argentina.

I need to get a video of them bumping around.    Funny little action.

 

The database shows both versions - oddly enough, the plastic footed versions are flawed in the same location.   

 

 **edit** I just noticed the database reads that the footed version is a pin walker - not the case... the both wobble about with the aid of an out of balance flywheel.

Cheers

A video would be great. I imagine they move like the yone jumping robot.

The plastic feet look like lego brick glued on the body. I prefer the metal ones, I curious to see how it looks underneath. Anyway, they will fit well with their new fellows at your home.

Any ideas when they were made?

Very cool, thanks Brian.   

I think this came from Kevin / Moonman - then to Paul... then to me.

i'm not certain when they were made - most notes that I can find say the '60's.

The action is different than the yone hoppers.    I'll add some better photos and a video later - winter blessed us with another 7 inches of snow, so I need to climb on a tractor for awhile, lol...  

I do think there is another youtube vid also.

Cheers,

Glad they got to you safely Kirk, they look good! 👍
