I bought this vintage robot because I've always been fascinated by retro gadgets, and as a healthcare worker, I appreciate things that bring joy without complications. The courier called ahead for delivery, which was very considerate. When I unboxed it, I was thrilled to see it in such good shape—it looked just like the pictures. The problem was that I wasn't sure if it would actually work, but the solution was simple: after a bit of tinkering with the manual (though I don't read Japanese, I managed to figure out the basics), it started moving around. My takeaway is that this is a fun, nostalgic item that's great for display and occasional use, but it's not something I'd rely on for daily entertainment. It's perfect for someone like me who enjoys collecting unique pieces, and it reminds me of simpler times. I'd recommend it to fellow collectors, but maybe not for those seeking high-tech features. Overall, a solid addition to my home, and it gets a lot of compliments from friends! 😊
- Pros: The robot is a delightful find that truly captures the essence of old-school charm, and it functions perfectly, which was a pleasant surprise. I loved having the original manual in Japanese—it adds authenticity and makes the whole experience feel special. It's in excellent condition, with no signs of wear, and it operates smoothly, making it a standout piece in my collection.
- Cons: As it seemed to me, I expected more from the overall performance; while it works, it doesn't do anything extremely impressive beyond basic movements. The manual being in Japanese might be a barrier for some, as I had to rely on guesswork or online help to understand it fully. Also, given its age, I was hoping for a bit more functionality or interactive features.
