MR MONSTER - PLAY VALUE - HONG KONG

Plastic battery operated robot. Eight 8 legs. Its bizarre shape and eccentric walking action are its main attractions. The 10" plastic robot has eight legs and walks along with a strange vigorous striding action, the arms swing, the antenna spins and a light flashes inside the head. Two color versions are known: an orange-yellow-green combination and blue-white with gold hands. There are many slight variations based on these two schemes. The distinguishing feature of this particular version of robot is the large octagonal chrome silver plastic antenna.

Note: this robot is glued together making repairs virtually impossible.

The robot first appears in the 1970 Wards catalog as the Climbing Space Robot, though with the two-dish antenna.

There's also a blue body/red leg version called the Walking Space Robot. Silver dish antenna. Playart 23cm FT#30
