AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Robot "Captain", Japan Yone / Mini Fighting Robot, Hong Kong / Futuropolis promotional robot, France. All working and in good condition.
The Robot "Captain", Japan Yone (Yoneya), late 1960s in a very good condition, complete with the original cardboard box. Works perfectly: the robot walks and shoots (sparkling effect). Wind up, size: 14 cm x 7.5 cm
Mini Fighting Robot, Hong Kong, 1970s in good condition. Works perfectly: the robot walks and shoots. Wind up, size: 13 cm x 8 cm
The smallest robot is a rare promotional item ("ex-libris") that was given away in the late 1970s by the French publisher Futuropolis when purchasing the collector’s book Robot: robots et autres fusées d'avant la lune by Pierre Boogaerts from 1978. This book was the very first major European reference work on antique tin toys and robots. Wind up, size: 9 cm x 5 cm
The rare cardboard label ("Futuropolis vous offre ce petit robot") is of mediocre quality.
