I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but perhaps this is the nearest we will ever get to a wind up moving Diamond Planet reproduction.

How sad it is. Even more reproduction to new companies are also but gone now. Planet robot no longer makes and is still on-line to sell what is left of stock. Even Metal House has dropped away and looks like nothing new to be had. Osaka Tin Toy is quite now and now Papa San is selling what ever they have and making customs out of many left over parts.Papa San had made a few nice Customs and even found and sold what was there last to be Mr Patrols. I wonder what will happen to them in 2012 will they also leave the Tin Toy Market.

Trying to find this Mechanized Robby reproduction from Osaka in Silver which has become a hard find and then locating the Nickel plated version of Robby to add to the collection. Also I have yet to see any of the Green Robby Bots for sale from Osaka like this fine looking example from John there were 12 makes in the Moss Green and only 4 in the Dark Green. :biggrin:
