    Cragstan’s Mr. Robot (Custom)

    $747.50 IL Sales Tax 8%
    Cragstan's Mr. Robot is a rescue project. His original finish was damaged over the years, so he was paint stripped and refinished in automotive lacquer and completely rebuilt. He spins and dances exactly as he was originally designed to do. This is an excellent, professionally finished example for your collection!

  • Al to check description before publishing. Asahi Corp. Toys Junior Products, battery operated 1/10 scale Lotus 49 Ford F-1 formula race car, rare winged version in excellent working, like new condition. This toy comes with the original box and instruction insert sheet. This is a beautiful, all original toy with the exception of my new reproduction rear wing.????? This is car #29. The toy has been tested and is in perfect working order. It has been in my personal collection for several years and displayed in a glass cabinet with its box. The box is about an 7 on the 1 to 10 scale with a couple of minor tears and creases. The toy has a few minor playwear imperfections but nothing distressing and is still a superior condition example to display. The toy has the original injector cover, some oxidation to the metal wheel inserts, which is common but all in all is a really beautiful toy. Engine screams and very bright flashing bulb lights up the center of the engine. An extremely clean and desirable version of the Gold Leaf Racer that is sure to please. An interesting point to note with this version of the Asahi racer's box description is that it specified the use of "2 D Cell Batteries" for operation, yet the toy actually requires 3 'C' cell batteries. This version also only offers neutral and forward motion whereas the non wing cars offer a neutral, low and high speed transmission.
  • Kanto Battery Operated Space Patrol - Replica Tower and Radar Dish, available ONLY through Uncle Al! - You won't find a more accurate, perfect fitting replica tower anywhere else. An outstanding original was borrowed for reference in the dimensioning, fit and color of this replica and it installs just as the original - an easy installation that you can do yourself with my instructions. The Kanto Space Patrol vehicle is one of the most highly sought after space toy collectibles and many times is missing this critical detail part. My re-creation is made exactly like the original 10 piece part. It comes painted in the correct colors and installs in minutes. This part is hand made to order, so please allow a minimum of two weeks for assembly prior to shipping. Another fine part available nowhere else!
  • Ichiko Space Patrol Car Astronaut Driver Head - This is a replacement replica tin head for the Ichiko Space Patrol Car. I fabricated my first one of these from pictures of the original. They are comprised of four pieces, front and rear of the helmet, inside face and outer earmuffs and strap. I have since acquired an original head and have created new tooling so that my replacement head is now near perfect! I also replicate the windshields and frames for this toy which run $175.00. These take about 4 weeks to complete from the time of order.
