Mechanized terror ……the plasma nipples of death
I had gotten a battery powered “Robot Toy” for Christmas when I was knee high to a grasshopper Maybe the Robot was more of a cyborg?
it had the human face of an astronaut. Human face behind glass it could have been the televised face of a remote operator. ( A Waldo as they are known in the industry) It was the first disturbing attribute of a toy that would scare the living bejeezus out of me.
The face was grim and unfriendly like some sort of space marine. the Robot Monsters next trick was to charge at me with menacing space battle effects noises and then it stopped. Its chest panels flew open and the thing lit up like a Christmas tree in hell. Two bizarre nipple guns began shooting sparks at me while blaring death ray sound effects at me. I believe this space age boogeyman went by the odd sounding moniker of Mr. Hustler made by Horikawa toys. I have found him on E bay for $449.99 a curio shop in Glendale Arizona had the box alone for 300.00
Behold the awful nipple guns that colored my nightmares with pectoral plasma blasts!
At least that's what I have been able to find online about it . The actual toy that forever left an impression was only in my presence for minutes before being whisked away to older cousins. I would collect robot toys the rest of my life after I had gotten over the sheer terror of Mr. Hustler.
I still collected robot toys over the years despite my first impressions. i got this Robby style Windup at a local Robot Toy store last summer i think...
