MAGNOR, MAGNETIC HELMET ROBOT - CRAGSTAN - HONG KONG

Multicolored plastic battery op robot. 9 inches tall. This is a color variation of the Ranger Robot. It is related to the NGS Mr Robot, but is appreciably smaller.

Name on box: Magnor
Manufacturer: ???, Hong Kong
Importer/Distributor: Cragstan, U.S.A.
Height: 9" (to top of "magnetic helmet")
Box number: #2601-2
Timeline date: First sighted in the 1969 Cragstan catalog. On sale in December 1969. 1970 (1970 Western Auto Christmas Catalog)
Power source: 2 "C" cell batteries
Actions: The "magnetic helmet" serves as the ON/OFF switch. With the helmet atop the robot's head, Magnor rolls forward in a waddling fashion with flashing eyes and a clicking sound. He turns to the left at regular intervals producing the "square/turn walking action" listed on the box. Removing the magnetic helmet makes him stop.
Additional info.: MADE IN HONG KONG is embossed on the bottom of the base (in two places!) along with the Cragstan logo. Embossed on the front of the magnetic helmet is some kind of a symbol, perhaps a logo. Using the same molds, but different colors, Cragstan also produced Ranger Robot. The third companion piece is the larger sized Mister Robot. Joe K.
