Hi everybody, does anyone out there know if zoomer toys is still going ? I've searched for it and found it once but when I click on the robot I'm interested in it tells me that the site is no longer available, has it changed site or no longer in use, thanks for any help

I think I should say, the ebay seller Marsking is not the owner of the Zoomertoys website, Marsking is Antoni Emchowicz the author of the Future Toys robot & space toys book, based in the UK. Zoomertoys is run by someone in the US who's name I can't recall just now. 🤔

Thats interesting metalrobothead I remember buying a ngs mister robot and ranger robot (magnor)  from zoomer toys years ago and I could swear it came from the UK, I think I even spoke to him about the prices I am going back 20 years so I could be wrong, but thanks for the information

Slight correction: Tony is Marsking and also the owner of the  Zoomertoys website. The now dormant website is on one of those free hosting packages so will probably sit there for years. 

 

I think the confusion is with Zoomer7, the Ebay trading name of Mark Bergin, a friend of Tony. Mark has a separate website. 

 

I bought my first robots from Tony back in the 1980s. His prices are always very realistic and the descriptions can be relied on.

Thank you Brian, I remember zoomertoys used to be a link on the old alphadrome site, no wonder the website doesn't work properly then.

Is this the Star Wars guy? He has a brown version of the Rotator on ebay right now. I copied the trippy eye face plate years ago and modified a few over the years. Anybody ever seen a legit brown rotator?

Hmmm

I think what plasticaugie means is: maybe worth a google in case you didn’t know about the Star Wars “story”
