ASC - Robot War Boat R-7

Mostly the fun stops when the hunt is over but not on this one. I hunted on this toy for quite a long time and did not expect to ever see it in real but suddenly it showed up again and I took my change... wow !!! 

Robot War Boat R-7 made in Japan in the late 1950`s by ASC. The boat is crank wound and powered by a strong mechanism. It produces a great siren sound. The boat is steered by a robot and equipped with a BIG gun and 2 rockets. The boat has 4 tinmade wheels but I am sure he will float and go forward fast with the powerfull engine but I decided not to test the boat into real water :) Its totally made out of tin. The litho is outstanding and very detailed. The condition of this boat is excellent to near mint. There is no rust no dings and the boat seems to be all original except the 2 rockets which are professionally made reproductions.

I can imagine that you never have seen this boat ever before and there is a good reason for that. Only 2 or 3 are known to excist and that makes this boat one of the most rare and scarce toys I ever laid my hands on. You will never see this boat again in the open market. Guessing it will fit into ANY collections :)
