Crank wound flywheel motor with bump and go action, http://mrmercury.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=52696563 52696563 First type 1960's 'SH' brand Attacking Martian. This particular version also came in brown and silver, gold one is more difficult to find. Note the box has a 'Telsalda' label affixed, This company is better known for importing plastic model cars and other toys into the UK from Hong Kong. Looks like they also imported metal robots from Japan. http://mrmercury.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=3990590 3990590 On the left 1967 Swivel-O-Matic Astronaut, on the right the later Rotate-O-Matic Super Astronaut. Both have the same actions, the earlier Swivel O Matic has plastic lens inserts in the dials below the chest area and is generally a nicer quality item, the Rotate O Matic appears to have undergone some cost cutting no doubt to increase sales and profits. http://mrmercury.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=46257022 46257022 The three colour versions of the first type Attacking Martian. Very nice. http://mrmercury.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=3990604 3990604 This is the 2nd version that came with almost the same box as1st version, only difference being the words 'With light' deleted on 2nd version box due to the chest illumination no longer fitted. All metal blue arms, no lamp in head and no light in chest, probably the rarer version. I certainly see less of them being offered for sale. http://mrmercury.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=3990605 3990605 Mr.Robot, 'Robot' AKA Directional robot and Talking robot. http://mrmercury.webs.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=3990591 3990591 Rare version with strange cosmic eyes.
