ORANGE
SKIRTED R ROBOT
So rare that it's not acquired a nickname,
and as far as I'm aware, there's no box for this robot, so no 'official' name.
The one distinctive feature is the letter R on the belt.
It's made by Yonezawa and it's related to
other robots:
- The arms and body are clearly the same
pressing as the Yonezawa skirted Cragstan Astronaut. The litho detailing on
the chest panel is a more complex reworking of the dial pattern on the Astronaut.
- The dome on the head looks like the one
on the wind up Mighty Robot (the Athlete Robot) - and the eyes look very similar.
- The ears are those eccentric shaped ones
from the Alps Door Robot, without the metal shields around them.
The oversized head is, otherwise, unique, including
that mouth with the translucent plastic centre.
A very rare robot, and one that has not been
fully documented.
