Thanks for the mention. I've been busy lately but I've been able to work on the Vincent project the last few days and just put out an update video. I don't remember these but I like the simplified design. There are some on Ebay right now but I already have too much stuff.

Hey John I just wanted to let you know. That you inspire me. There a group of people on facebook that I follow and I have been posting some of your content on there. People on this group cannot get enough of your content. It's called lots of bots. I know the group's creator personally and we would love to have you as a part of our group. You're truly an inspiration to us all. I believe God has put me on this Earth to do something with robotics. I know that sounds crazy. But I truly do believe it as my calling and to see what you have accomplished in life. Really inspires me. Every time I click on one of your videos it just fills my heart with warmth.

Where's ROBOT MONSTER?

Wow incredible .any for sale?

I think I used to have this one but it was kinda called “Robo Adventure”? Idk. But it was white and blue. And when I was little, I had the SpiderMan themed version of that. I couldn’t find the remote of the SpiderMan one. But the white and blue one kinda did have the remote, so… And why does that robot sound like a cheaper quality version of Robosapien or Roboactor while making “International Caveman Speech” noises? And why does the robot have a disconnected wire? And the robot kinda somehow looks like a mix between Robosapien Jr. and Robosapien V2, almost.

So cool to know that there was a toy based on V.I.N.C.E.N.T. I remember the first time I saw the movie on the theater. I was just a kid and I wondered if there was a toy... A few months after, due to the success of the film, a large publisher produced a magazine from its series "Destaque e Brinque" (something like "Detach & Play") that allowed you to create a paper version of the VINCENT robot. I still have it today!

This is weird, I was only thinking of this toy the other day and today, this video pops up in my feed. I have the grey release, it's in my parents' loft and I haven't seen it for decades - but as soon as I saw you show this off, I hoped that you'd demonstrate it working - you didn't disappoint. The memories flooded back immediately. The low pitched burbling this does has been forever engrained into my memory. I always thought that this was just using the same technology as Big Track, just in another form. Thanks for the kick of nostalgia!

Dang.i wish I was handy w a solder gun...etc.

Well done John, there's precision in your painting as in everything you do!

Cool but difficult to play with . Thank John the robot 🤖 man

Oh man! I totally forgot about these little guys! I remember seeing them at Radio Shack or Sears or something. I love the sounds they make when you are programming them. Kind of an early version of the block coding they use today. Thank you for the shout out! 😁

Collecting Robots could be a real Black Hole!

I never realized that there were Black Hole toys on the market.

I always like finding out vintage toys i never knew existed with ur videos, i like the aesthetic of these toys, i feel like they could inspire indie video game designers making futuristic shooter or rpg type games they could take design aspects from lesser known toys and implement them into enemies and robots in the game

$490!!! What makes this toy worth that price?

That’s a really nice looking robot, even the pre-production one. It reminds me of that tiny wind-up robot you featured a while back where the light-up “eyes” are replaced by machine guns.

Where can i buy this

One of my early pickups during my toy robot collecting phase 20 years ago. Also have the MTH Robby Space Patrol. 👍

How is it reverse engineered to closely match the original?

Just curious: these sixteen 'lamps' are really (incandescent) vintage bulbs or they were replaced by LEDs? Would be cool to see the inside guts of the prototype...

Super nice robot love Osaka tin toys !

I got this when i I was 5 years old back in '71😊 Thank you mom and dad!

Wow this just popped up! Thanks for posting the sample!! Great stuff ❤

Just discovered your channel. These are amazing! Will enjoy checking out your videos

in Italy it was called Martina Cuoricina (Little Heart Martina)

Lol 😅 after a while I understood why call it more super annoying robot lol

Very helpful and straight to the point thank you!

As always amazing video, so nice to see this old tech, looking forward to buy a smoking robot!

Still have mine

How did a person (amputee) fit in that???

Is that Gort 8 feet tall? I read that was the actual height.

Do we have to look at your butt?

I would do 1 headlight Not the entire grille

My soul horn is the worst.

Now that is a masterful job - and thank you for the video. Did I read correctly on the original website where you have the 3D images, etc, that you found the actual prop parts in a storage bin in Pittsburg, California? Your work-arounds were spot on. Is the Robot museum in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania where one is on display? I first saw Tobor the Great as well as the TV pilot way back in 1958 - I was three. Anyway, great stuff!!!

I had a King Ding when i was about 4 or 5 yrs old when these came out... It seemed so big to me at the time, lol. And...I just found the 'Brain' robot in a box in the garage after all this time. Thanks for posting the video...could never remember the name of the toy all these years. Great memories! 👍🙂

❤ love this! Are you planning to make it available on thingiverse?

Jobeanvideos used to have him but his one's audio was more clearer and no resistor sounding like ane he was broken in the videos he would only move one hand and walking in circles

How do you get the software to be able to print on a bigger print bed? Because when i tried it it said the g code was too large.

Thanks for this it’s gonna help me a ton 👍🏽

I remember being at someone's house at the age of 4 and seeing they had one of these. For the longest time I've misremembered it as a Power Rangers pinball game.

I have a similar one, do you take these in for repair.

i WONDER IF THAT CONTROLER INSPIERED THE CLASIC STAR TREK PHASER

this is fantastic.

Tobor was one of the key influences in my childhood that led to me becoming an electrical engineer in R&D. (Speed Racer, Star Trek, and The Prisoner being some others.) Your work is truly amazing! The movie always left me wanting to see more, and your video gave me so much more insight into the structure of Tobor than even the original film. So satisfying and nostalgic! Thanks so much for sharing your wonderfully detailed and accurate creation! 🙏🏻☺️🌿

A GREAT COLLECTION I HAD A REMCO ROBOT, IT WAS STOLEN IN 2004 CANT AFFORD ANOTHER ONE.

Very peaceful out there!

Nice Job i have lots of black berry brush that needs clearing !

Superb work again

Brilliant
