Item Description
3-5/8x6x4.25" tall tin litho space tank w/plastic half body robot driver that looks like Robby the Robot from the classic sci-fi film "Forbidden Planet." In fact, in that film, Robby drives a similar vehicle to version of this toy's design. Made in Japan by Yoshiya, 1950s. This is battery-operated version w/scarcer black driver figure. Toy is nicely designed, w/detailed tank designs and simulated view screen behind driver showing rocket in space. Bump and go action w/swiveled front wheels. Missing antenna but working, translucent plastic accents on face light up. Fine overall.
