Dear Collector(s)
Welcome to my Toy_Robot
Collection. I hope that these pages will interest you
in collecting Toy Robots. I have gotten all of the robots
on the following pages from collectors, toy and flea
markets in the North of Germany.
Collecting robots
is not new. Production corresponds with the ?Race
to the Moon?, which started between 1950 and 1960. At
this time robots were made of tin and this type of material
allows us to determine the age, and year of production.
Most robots are made in Asia. And can be classified
by their type, material, type of drive, and action.
The robots shown on the following pages are made of
plastic, tin or both, and were manufactured after 1970.
Detailed information about my collection can be
found on the following pages.
Space operations !
With the advent
of space operations - (Sputnik´57, Explorer 1´58,
Wostok 1´61, , Mercury 6´62 and Gemini GT
3´65), as well as Apollo, and early science fiction
found in literature and comic strips, beginning in the
1930s with Buck Rodgers (1928), Flash Gordon (1934),
Dan Dare(1950), and movies such as ?Man on the Moon?
and ?Man in Space? produced at Disney Studios, production
of robots began. With that began collecting, which is
what this web site is all about.
