Tomy Green NTT Shaberoku - MIB - Display Only

Throughout the 1980's Tomy made innumerable corporate promotional robots, from Coke and Pepsi through to Donut Boys, it seemed every company wanted a cheap robotic ambassador. Like a slightly more technical form of the corporate pen. And many featured not merely the addition of a bland logo: but new accessories, body parts and paint jobs. This rare example was commissioned by the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Company (NTT) and is a Shaberoku (Mr. D.J.) recoloured in bold Green.

Tomy Gold Omnibot - MIB - Display Only

First place prize in a competition run for only one year in 1980's Japan. This spectacular Gold Omnibot is the Louis XIV of home robots. Aside from his tray, the packaging and accessories are identical to a regular Japanese release. He's in mint condition and thanks to dry storage is fully working. Very few of these survive in respectable condition. Dazzling in his chrome livery he is truly a king among droids.

Tomy Silver Omnibot - MIB - Display Only

In 1980's Japan a competition saw the release of a limited number of gold and silver chromed Omnibots as 1st and 2nd place prizes respectively. This is one such surviving example. Aside from his tray, the packaging and accessories are identical to a regular Japanese release. He's in mint condition and thanks to dry storage is fully working. He looks resplendent in his shiny chrome and is the toast of many a London dinner party.

Tomy Coca Cola Chatbot - MIB - £200

This is a rare Coca-Cola Chatbot (a.k.a Happy Can Can Yu-U-Zu), made by Tomy in the 1980's. He is in excellent condition and comes in his original box with polystyrene insert, tray, twirly antenna, coke can remote and documentation unique to this release. This was made on special commission for The Coca-Cola Company and released in Japan in very small quantities. He has been tested and is fully working. A very obscure and funky looking robot and one of the best pieces of product merchandise I've ever seen!

Tomy TXR-002 Type F - MIB - £500

This is a very rare TXR-002 Type F Robot, made by Tomy in 1993. It's in mint deadstock condition and comes with the original remote control and six of the five known attachments; Manipulator Arm, Torch Arm, Pellet Gun, Gatling Gun and Beam Battler. The Type F features both rare assault weapon arms as standard, a gun-metal colour scheme and a variety of special features that differentiate it from the standard TXR-002. This is an extremely cool toy, with a design aesthetic reminiscent of Robocop, Terminator and various other cyberpunk media of the 1980's. It is challenging to build (and maintain!) and has deservedly acquired a cult following amongst hobbyists.

Tomy Nyanko - MIB - £200

This is a rare Nyanko cat robot, made by Tomy in the 1980's. She is in mint deadstock condition and comes in her original box with all inserts and packaging. This was one of the last in the popular line of home pets, servants and entertainers produced by Tomy. The menagerie included Foocrow (or Hootbot) the owl, Potch (or Spotbot) the canine and finally Nyanko the cat: who never saw an original Western release (though she has recently been re-released in a new colour scheme as Kitbot). She waves her tail, unceremoniously bundles herself over, then rights herself - only to repeat the ludicrous process. A toy almost impossible to find in any condition. 

Tomy Omnibot Jr. 'Charmmy' - MIB - £350

This is a rare Omnibot Junior (a.k.a Charmmy), made by Tomy in the 1980's. He is in mint deadstock condition and comes in his original box with all inserts and packaging. He comes complete with tray, remote control, money box (unpunched), model (unpunched), instruction manual and all other documentation. He has been tested and is fully working. This version of Omnibot Junior was only released in Japan and has many unique accessories and design features. Rare to find in such pristine and complete condition.

Helic Attack Zoids - MIB - £100

Included are all four models in the series; RAZ-01 Shotodile, RAZ-03 Seabatoras, RAZ-05 Kamakira and RAZ-07 Kyanossa (a further four highly obscure Zenebas models would be released a year later). They are unmade and in mint deadstock condition. They come with original boxes, instruction sheets and even the bubblegum packages that they were originally distributed with.

Zenebas Attack Zoids - MIB - £100

Zoids Battle Music - MIB - £50

Released in the midst of the vintage Zoids era this ridiculous giftsest offers the perfect musical accompaniment to your hobby. It has only been played once and I've listened to the recording many times since - surprisingly enjoyable. It comes compete with all packaging, tape (plays perfectly) and booklet. Rare paraphernalia and great party music - although what type of party I wouldn't like to say!

Zoids Mechabonica - MIB - £200

Before there were Zoids there was Mechabonica. A short lived line of unassuming prehistoric robot toys. None would have guessed that they heralded the Cambrian explosion that was to follow. This is the complete set of three: all MIB and complete with sticker sheets and manuals. Fantastic artwork depicts our messengers to the space hovering above bizarre interstellar facilities - could this be the first glimpse of planet Zoidstar!? In these protean model kits we have the undiluted essence of Zoids.

Zoids Starzeta - MIB - Display Only

Starzeta were released under official license by Tomy for a brief period in Spain during the early eighties (concurrently with Mechabonica in Japan). Together they make up the diminutive category of pre-Zoids. Neither series was particularly successful, but when re-released as Zoids proper two years later they would go on to become one of the most important toylines in history. Both are difficult to acquire and this is a complete set of all three models in the series, unmade and mint in box. They feature subtly different colour schemes and stickers to the regular Mechabonica / Zoids releases. A rare and unusual centrepiece to any Zoids collection!
