This guy is stupidly rare over here. The guy I got Melvin from (before he was Melvin) had one for sale when I picked up Melvin, I was tempted!

Even this one is $400 with shipping. I cant see the appeal for that price. However for someone with a 3d design skills and a printer this has details worth copying onto their robot.

Yes he is a rare one, but for that price and not working, it doesn't excite me any to spend that kind of money :-{

and.....the "main" criteria is....does it lift a can of cold beer? .....but yeah 400 dollars and not working is crazy. I guess being the last one on the planet has its price stress

I didn't realize it was that big till I watched the video at jdebay link. I love those old commercials!

@dshulpius I to miss those commercials, time were so different back then, seems like life was simpler and tv was so much better, now it's all that reality crap. I often have heard, how did we live without the cellphone? Well we lived just fine, perhaps I am just getting old, but if one of you guys would build a time machine I would love to go back to the 80's :-}

@stonewolf I agree entirely with you...refresh my memory regarding the commercial so I can look it up Speaking of "time machines" .....my robot under construction will be using a "time machine" as in the HG Wells book maybe you ment the 1880's
