Year: 1985 Manufacturer: Masudaya Japan Condition: Mint condition robot in very good condition box Second edition vintage collectable For the 20th anniversary of Lost in Space, Japanese toy maker Masudaya created this 1985 edition of the famous robot from the series. In the USA he’s known as “B-9” or just “Robot”, but in Japan he’s known as YM-3. He measures 4 1/2” tall from his clear bubble dome down to his treads, painted in the original silver, red and black finish. Wind him up and he rolls along. The box measures 2 1/4” x 2 5/8” x 4 3/4” tall and both the inside and outside box are printed with artwork. The box has a wrinkled lower edge on one side, but it’s in great shape for giving or collecting. The box has a color guide for painting the buttons and sensors to complete the look, although this one has the original finish and has not been painted. Also includes an advertising insert with other Masudaya toys, written in Japanese. Very cool. Photos are of actual item. Climate controlled storage and minimally handled. Sold as is. Only one available.
