Roboto Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 What the inside looks like on this Mr Patrol version. I took him apart because he was running slowly and making gear noise plus had a loose off/on switch. Adjusted the switch for a better contact added grease to the gears and oiled the shaft points and away he went faster and in 100% working order. Not a bad find for the $59.00 fee from Comet toys. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted November 15, 2011 Author Share Posted November 15, 2011 Mr Patrol out for his walk. He now sounds more like a machine instead of a grinder and stopper and his dome light now spins as it should. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted November 21, 2011 Author Share Posted November 21, 2011 I finally got to repairing this Dept56 Robot factory. I removed the inner circut board and resoldered 2 connections one had no solder on it. It now works great once more and just in time for the Holidays. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 Needed to add some grease to the inner gear drivers they were sticking and looked very dry. Once done it started to run great once more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimm Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Great thread and collection. Vids are a must for really enjoying these greats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Thanks. This is what the Astro Doom looks like on his platform as he lights up. They still have that bump and go action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 From MH comes this very limited run of the Yellow Martian Meter robot. As he walks the meter moves while the side amber lights go up and down along with the right antenna which turns slowly. Another excellent addition the the martian head line up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrM64VSoceI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultrarobotman Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Very nice, Roboto. Thanks for sharing. Nice close-up of the new meter screen. The antenna does spin nicely, too. I am Still awaiting the other two pre-orders that came with this one, the new fighting robot and the new antenna gear version, I did not order this one. :angry:, now, I am thinking...

Roboto Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 The new Gear and fighting robots do look great hopefully they will arrive soon. It took 2 months with this meter robot to arrive. It seems they wait for the orders to arrive at MH from dealers here in the U.S.A and also from there sales auctions in Japan they once they have a few to make then they begin so yes it will take time but in the long run well worth the wait.

Morbius Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Thanks for the great videos! Never seen this one, interesting design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 Its nice to know that MH is still trying to make different looking robots with the parts that are still left. There Martian Drivers and Martian meter robots have been made very well and are very limited to there runs. I like what they have done to the right ear side by adding the rotating antenna to the last 2 verions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufwO3ihte1c What this limited run from MH of the machine gun robot looks like as he walks along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 Martian machine gun all lit up as he walks along.This version has the louder machine gun noise as the contact was reformed for a direct hit on the inner plate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHp2rspOGiI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
