larry seven Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 :) Hi guys, this is from the early fall 1996 catalogue of The Mind's Eye out of Chelmsford, MA., a supplier of all kinds of nostalgic fun things. A trio of small plastic robots, I don't know what the box for these looked like or what the name of these robots are. -Larry 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larry seven Posted April 30, 2006 Author Share Posted April 30, 2006 :) I just did a quick search for The Mind's Eye and didn't come up with this company, they may not be in business anymore. -Larry 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jan Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 L7: All these toys were imported from China by "Acutrements" and came on cards and in a boxed loose assortment.You probably could still find them at places like "The woundandwound".I think there was also some older orginal issues that were made in Hong Kong.Neet little wind up toys.

I had them as a kid but they were made in Hong Kong and had a different key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morbius Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 I received this one in 1980 from a friend when I bought his '73 Duster; I'm sure they were around quite a while before that. He bought it for me as a dashboard ornament!!! Made in Hong Kong.:lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
