1977 Mr. Machine Robot
$89.00 $71.20
Year: 1977
Manufacturer: Ideal
Condition: Very good condition
First edition vintage collectable
Ideal Toy Company manufactured the original Mr. Machine as a kit which could be assembled by kids. Unique for it’s time, Mr. Machine was made of injection moulded plastic, a new technique which allowed manufacturers to produce parts quickly and less expensively, including a clear body.
In 1977, Ideal re-issued Mr. Machine as an assembled toy. This is the first generation assembled version, with parts riveted together. It has a copyright date with the patent number stamped into the plastic. Mr. Machine stands just under 18″ tall and is in great shape. His wind-up key works and he rolls forward with a squeaking and whirring noise as his internal gears spin around. Cog-a-riffic! Mr. Machine is a clever, well designed toy that looks great sitting on the shelf or rolling across the floor! It’s a one of a kind toy and there aren’t many working ones left out there.

1970’s Brushy the Floating Robot in box
Year: 1970’s
Manufacturer: Unknown
Condition: Very good condition robot
First edition vintage collectable
Here’s a novel robot for collectors or just for fun! Brushy the Floating Robot is actually a made up name, because the package says just “Robot” which is not very clever. Brushy is about 5 1/2″ tall, has a radar dish on his head, wheel gears for arms, and a 3 arm wrench on his chest. His most unique feature is his feet. Instead of wheels or legs, Brushy has (let’s say it together) BRUSH for feet! They’re basically bristles like you’d find on a hairbrush. So how does a robot with brushes for feet move? Flip the switch and Brushy starts vibrating and floating around.. See video below.
The box is 3 1/2″ x 3″ x 5 1/2″ and is in good condition, no rips or tears, just some aging and shelf wear.

Year: 1986
Manufacturer: Revell – Item# 4911
Condition: Very good condition
First edition vintage collectable

The kit contains name customization slide-off decals of the entire shuttle fleet, including the Challenger, as well as the Columbia, which also met tragedy 17 years later. The Space Shuttle fleet’s last flight was in 2011, and this incredible shuttle model kit is also a part of history now.
When assembled, the model is a 1/144 scale model of the Space Shuttle, Launch Tower and Shuttle complex, ready for launch from Launch Pad 39 at the Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral Florida.
This is a highly detailed kit over 2 feet tall when assembled, with a crawler launch tower, moveable access arms and retracting rotating crane structure. The shuttle has opening payload doors, external fuel tank and dual rocket motors, a moveable Canada robot arm, and more. Detailed instructions for assembly, painting and decal application.
The shrink wrap has never been removed from the box, so the internal contents are still in their original bags. Most of the photos are from other sources, showing the way the box looks when first opened, how it looks unassembled, as well as the fully assembled kit. This kit is unopened and unassembled.
The box measures 20″ x 30″ x 5″. The shrink wrap is a little beat up and torn primarily on the corners, but the printing on the box is in very good shape and preserved from being in a plastic bag most of the last 30 years. The shrink wrap contracted over the years, making one large wrinkle on the front of the box, but it’s unlikely to have affected the contents.
