Yonezawa - Space - 802 - Robot Battery Operated Space Explorer - 1960-1969 - Japan

robot by Yonezawa with original box and manual thirty years ago i bought this robot in a very old store. It was then already vintage costing me 340 belgian francs -check the box - being 17 years old i did not play with the robot, i tried it ou: it did not walk properly although the wheels 'want' to spin and they show some willingness to walk. i guess hearing the rattle one of the cog wheels in the clock work does not correspond 100 %. i should have asked for a repair in warranty ; ) But ... he does raise its head as it should - revealing the '3D' printed astronaut - and he swings his arms and the eyes in the head do blink as they should so i stop the motor when he is fully erect to admire the Mighty Space Explorer very little wear on the back of the head and astronaut cover plate

robot by Yonezawa

with original box and manual

thirty years ago i bought this robot in a very old store. It was then already vintage costing me 340 belgian francs -check the box -
being 17 years old i did not play with the robot, i tried it ou: it did not walk properly although the wheels 'want' to spin and they show some willingness to walk. i guess hearing the rattle one of the cog wheels in the clock work does not correspond 100 %.

i should have asked for a repair in warranty ; )

But ... he does raise its head as it should - revealing the '3D' printed astronaut - and he swings his arms and
the eyes in the head do blink as they should

so i stop the motor when he is fully erect to admire the Mighty Space Explorer
very little wear on the back of the head and astronaut cover plate
