Robby the Robot - Massive Life-Sized Animatronic Replica
Do you have $32,000 burning a hole in your wallet and a spot in your home, home theater, or office that's missing that certain something to really tie the room together? This massive life-sized, animatronic replica of Robby the Robot from the 1956 science fiction classic, Forbidden Planet, can now be yours to command. Standing 7 feet tall, this working replica of Robby is recreated by renowned artist Fred Barton from the same blueprints, molds, and templates of the original robot prop.
This luxurious reproduction of one of the most famous robots in history can not only move his computer relay assembly, rotate his servo-controlled head, spin his planetary gyro stabilizers, twirl his scanners, and blink and flash his various lights, he can also speak his lines from the movie as blue neon tube lights sync up to recreate his mouth. You can even project your own voice through him by speaking into the included wireless microphone. It features a highly detailed and rugged fiberglass body, machine-grade brass, acrylic, and aluminum mechanical parts in his domed robot head, is built here in the USA on planet Earth, and each Robby is signed and numbered by the artist and includes a Certificate of Authenticity.
Hmm, if you already own the equally cool Life-Sized Lost in Space Robot, it's probably wise to keep them apart or you may risk starting a War of the Robots!
