JohnnyAstro Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Hi, just wanted to share with the group the line of Robots I created, there called the DECOBOTS As you can see by my name I’m a Big Johnny Astro fan, I’ve been one ever since I received this toy in 67, I always thought there should be more to this toy even at a young age, I always had in the back of my mind there should have been an Action Figure with the name Johnny Astro and a group of Robot friends So fast forward some 50 something years and I finally did it, I created a character Johnny Astro and his Friends the DECOBOTS, here is the concept art for them, they are in the process of being 3d printed, then I hope to have them made into articulated figures along with a comic book , take a look let me know what you think, Thanks John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robothut Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Looks like you could take a Walmart iron giant walking toy and mod it to look like MERCURY if you put your mind to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyAstro Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 Hi, fellow Robot Enthusiast, I wanted to share my original Robot head sculptures I made that got me started designing the DECOBOTS I Restore cars for a living so I figured why not use some vintage car parts to make the Robots along with parts i sculptured, take a look and see if you can pick out what parts I used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyAstro Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 Thanks Everyone Glad you like my Robots, top head was originally speedo gauge housing from a 59 Impala, middle was a IBM time clock and last was an auxiliary under dash heater from a 50’s automobile, that were all a Good start for my designs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
