Dux - Astroman |

Not from Japan this time but build during the 1950`s In Germany. Dux Astroman is a legend because of its look, actions and the wonderfull artwork on the box. Dux Astroman is a rare and scarce robot and I will try to explain why. While the golden age was going on and Japan overwelmed the world with their tin robots and spacetoys, Germany decided to build a robot out of plastic which was not common for that timeperiod. Dux Astroman is totally build out of plastic and that is what this robot makes so special but also fragile !!!!
The robot is controlled by a remote control which allows the robot to walk, bend, move arms and grab things. The head of Dux Astroman is special, it glows in the dark. You can imagine what happend to these very fragile robots throught the years, not much survived in complete, original and working order. The dome is often damaged, the red antenna is always missing and its hard to find a fully working example without any cracks to the plastic body.
I owned about 6 of these robots through the years but this is the first time I could lay my hands on a 100% complete, original and working example in a really really beautifull box.
The condition of this Dux Astroman is near mint to mint. The robot is complete, all original, no cracks missing parts or whatever. It works perfectly and strong with all the actions. The box is original and the best I have ever seen for this robot. It comes complete with instructions and inserts. This robot is impossible to upgrade !!
A rare robot from the late 1950`s in near mint to mint condition. All original parts with awesome original box.
