Marx - High Bounce Moon Scout

A robot / Astronaut that shoots real balls out of a hidden hatch in his chest must have been great to play with for sure. Add a spinning antenna with real lights and a very nice package overall and you have High Bounce Moon Scout. Build in Japan by Linemar for Marx.

This astronaut is build out of tin and plastic and has a "brother" called Colonel Hap Hazerd ( the white astronaut that is more common )
Both robots are build by Linemar ( Japan ) for Marx USA ( distributor ) In action the robot walks with a rotating antenna ( that can be manually removed and is therefore often missing ) and is able to shoot little balls from a hidden section in his chest. The robot is battery operated with a remote control to let him walk or to let him shoot balls. The balls can be loaded into the robot at the back of his head.

While Colonel Hap Hazard is showing up in most collections, This High Bounce Moon Scout is not. he is much more scarce then the Colonel.

The condition of this Scout is very good to excellent. The robot is complete, all original ( also the remote, antenna and the blue wire ) and works great. There are still 2 small original balls present. The robot shows normal playwear and you can see this robot has been played with normally. The grey plastic arms and legs show some paintloss which is pretty normal for these robots. He works perfect with walking action, light in the antenna and shooting balls. The box is a reproduction and displays great.

Overall this is a very scarce astronaut that not often show up in the open market in this complete, original and working condition. Hard to find in ANY condition !
