THIS LITTLE ROBOT LEFT ITS MARX (EXCEPT IT'S A TOMY)...


I recently acquired this TOMY clockwork robot as a replacement for the one I had as a kid.  (I always thought it was a MARX robot, but it isn't.)  Interestingly, it was originally manufactured in two sizes - a small and slightly larger version.  It also came in different colours - red, blue or grey (and maybe even black - I'm not sure). Sometimes the red one had grey arms and blue or black legs, and I'm sure the others had variable colour schemes as well.  A thing of beauty, don't you think?  Hands off - it's MINE!
