space.trucks Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I believe this is the right place for this post as only one is a functional "robot" toy, the rest are all plastic figures. Blog style with video: https://spacetrucks.blogspot.com/2019/07/vintage-plastic-robot-space-figure.html These below are unknowns, any info appreciated. Additional pix of each on blog. Obtained with a batch of Tom Corbett type figures. Smooth bottom, no markings. Common pose, maybe Ajax or Archer? Lido? Articulated at shoulders & waist, looks 70s. Pilot figure from a rocket? Marked "China" with backwards down #3. Red features are painted. Maybe a gaming piece? Looks recent. Coman Boys? Or maybe Kinder? All have hitches on their backs for equipment or to fix them to something like a vehicle. Same as the other three. F'*ing love this guy. Diver with flippers & 02 tanks, but his arms + joints look robotic. What sort of a gas/vapor would a robot need to function underwater? Kinder maybe? Thanks for any help!

Alain Lapointe Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 first robot with raised arm derives from the cherilea set, then widely used all over as figure for the Magic Robot gameboard, you see he has a hollow hand to hold a stick or wand.

space.trucks Posted July 29, 2019 Author Share Posted July 29, 2019 Hah!@!! Fistpump, thought the pilot was a Cylon. Had been thrown off by his not being chromed. Stoked to know I landed some Coman figs too. Many thanks!! and I'll update the blog post with this info & make note on the video descriptions. Cheers!
