Ideal – Robot Commando.

Released in 1961, the robot was designed by Marvin Glass & Associates and was marketed as, “the only robot that responds to commands,” and, a “one-man army.” He was made of high-impact multi-coloured plastic and ran on three D-sized batteries installed in his base. Well this is what i found in the first search hit on google… 

Looking closer to the robot i see something really different: i see DIAMOND PLANET ROBOT..  ! :). Its very very clear that the Japanese “stole” the design to create Yonezawa’s Diamond Planet Robot ! 😉 Look at Robot Commando and you can see what i mean !

Back to the robot.. impressive Robot, battery operated.. made by Ideal in the US in the late fifties / early sixties… With a cored remote control with speech mechanism and knobs to control the robot.

According to the Box:  The Amazing Voice Controlled Robot.
– Robots arms whips missiles into space
– Head dome rises fires rockets into air
– Searching eyes
– Voice control Mike. Robot Obeys your commands
– Emits beeper signal
– Turns right, turns left and moves forward

So you see.. a VERY attractive robot.. keeping in mind that this robot is over 60 Years !! old ! amazing !!
The condition of this Robot Commando is excellent to near mint with original box + inserts. The robot comes with 2 rockets, original instructions and a ball and is in working condition but some functions need adjustment and inspection as you can expect from an old toy of this age. The box is very good to excellent with a stain in one of the side panels but overall.. a fantastic box considering the size of the robot and the age…
its already a miracle these toys still have their boxes 🙂
No cracks or any damage to the robot.. fantastic find .. hard to find robot and box in this condition !.
