Blechroboter Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Until half an hour ago I thought Jumbo is a german company, so I did in the last 40 years. But it is an origin dutch toy producer, still in business, with a german branch. By the elephant trademark we can date this game between 1956 and 1960. Also it seems the change from the rivet robot to the archer type falls in this period.

funkrobotik Posted January 31, 2013 Share Posted January 31, 2013 Hell,,, I never realised there were so many versions but the Dalek one does it for me. Fantastic research guys. :thumbs: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robothut Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Saw this on ebay, no close up of the figure that gives the answeres but the seller calls it a robot. So maybe this should be moved to the thread that we started "some place" on the magic robot type magnetic games. The second game is like Wirey Dan the answer man. 2 pieces interesting toys...They are Turkish made toys...Too amazing and they belongs to very nice condition...This robot will know your all ask and you will like electronic game also...

Blechroboter Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Great find, John! Konusan Robot means Talking Robot. Looking at clothing and hair style of the children I would date this game to the late 1960s or around 1970. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian.. Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 There's a version on that site that we don't have listed. It's the Diabolo Robot version by the Dutch company Jumbo. It has the cool broad shouldered robot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 It's getting hard to find new examples of the Magic Robot game, but here's one with a twist: the Gioco dei Quiz. The robot looks like a Co-Ma spaceman. I don't have a picture of the contents. (I'll add this to the Magic Robot games thread later) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinplate6 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 The kid on this box looks really creepy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Here's a slight box variation of the Italian Quiz: the Infallibile Automa. You can see the transparent Co-Ma related robot figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can see the transparent Co-Ma related robot figure. This is truly interesting: it seems to me that the arms of the CoMa spacemen were bended & deformed "post hoc" to use it in the game. Or, less probable, here we have a new never seen before CoMa spaceman pose! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Another box version - El Robot from, I believe, Argentina: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golddalek Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 The Dalek Oracle holds my interest, .......but then again, I could be biased. The Green Robot is an impressive color....I suppose Mars is associate with green. yea, that kid looks like a young Glen Beck...Mr. Cheetos.
