Yonezawa – Winky Robot

Winky Robot, made by Yonezawa in Japan in the late 1950`s is just an icon from the golden age, period.  This blockheaded robot just looks great and was reproduced in the 1990`s in several different colors. this robot was also used to create the famous telephone robot ( this robot in red with 2 phone horns attached on each side of the robot )

This tinmade robot is equipped with a clockwork mechanism that makes the robot walk, sparks and a needle in his chest moves from side to side but these great actions does not make this robot famous, it are his EYES that also gives the robot its name. The eyes are holographic and make the robot wink, very nice to see this robot in action.

The condition of this winky robot is excellent. The robot is in played with condition and shows some overall scratches and wear. The robot is all original and complete and still works fine. His eys blink and he walks perfectly. The windup key is probably not the original one but works fine. The robot does not spark anymore and the flint needs to be replaced. I will leave that to decide to the new owner.

Winky robot, made by Yonezawa in Japan is a scarce robot that is not showing up to often in the open market.  Hard to find robot in any condition. !
