Police vs Robot

A peaceful American neighborhood becomes a battleground!
Several agencies arrive and deploy.
Local police, neighboring jurisdiction, and the sheriff respond to to the officer needs help call.
Ambulance is standing by.
Two SWAT team members advance, covered by two rifle armed police.
The police helicopter keeps the giant Robot under surveillance.
The Robot stands unmoved by the display.

Robots Big and Small

Robot line up.
The packaging makes nice little boxing match posters, I plan to keep them to use in decorating towns.
Big vs little.
I think these have the same general style.
They likely are on the same side.
These guys certainly will be attacking the city.

Robot Knock Out

The Worlds Smallest Rock 'Em, Sock  'Em Robots are in red and blue plastic.  Each has a removable yellow base, no boxing ring.
I like the crude robot look, they would work well in Sky Captain and the World Of Tomorrow universe, or any sort of pulp, 1920s to 1950s era adventure.
Here they are in fighting position.  I suppose you could put them on a piece of copy paper and have at it.
A quick upper cut and Red Robot is knocked out.
More data on the set.
Use the QR code if you are interested, or the website.
I have several different sets of tiny toys by these guy and they are very well done, high quality and durable.
Here he is with a robot I got from Tractor Supply, it's a dog crew toy, except at my house.
Their catalog is pretty big, even robots like to read it.

Robots

A new robot addition to the collection.
While having breakfast at a local Cracker Barrel restaurant, I found this in the gift shop.
It is Red Rocker and Blue Bomber of the Rock 'Em Sock 'Em robots.
It is a product line called Worlds Smallest.  They make miniaturized versions of various toys.  I have their Rubic's Cube in my Batman 66 Jokers lair.
You get a blue and red robot and he works just like the original.
Work the controls on the back of the neck, hit the other one in the head, and his head pops up, signifying he's lost the round.
These levers work perfectly.
One leaver for each arm.  They have a very scary 1950s monster movie robot look.

Robot and Snow Monster

Robot approaches the drone.
Snow monster!
The heavy robot can easily lift the drone.
But the snow beast approaches the drone.
The infantry deploys.
But more snow monsters appear also!

Drone and Rocket

Something in the snow.
It is a reconnaissance drone.
A transport ship arrives to recover the drone.
A safe and vertical landing.
The men deploy from the rocketship.
They bring a robot with them.

Infantry Deploys

The snow beasts close on the robot.
More of them appear!
They are not fast, but light on the snow.
The infantry deploy around the spaceship and mostly towards the snow beasts.
The robot picked up the drone.
And slowly the robot moves towards the rocketship.

Robot, Rocketship, and Spacemen

Wherever you go keep an eye out for hobby stuff.
This very cool, retro, rocketship is from Tractor Supply.
It's a dog toy.  Maybe a dog toy for Astro, but my dog is going to do without it.
It has a great 1930s feel to it.
It's in full color, no painting nor assembly needed.
It's a dog toy so it is super durable.
This is one of my chocolate candy mold robots.  I think they go well together.
These are some cheapo knock off US Marines and British Paratroopers, copies of the Airfix 1/32nd scale figures but in 1/72nd scale.  They lack any real detail so the weapons are generic and the helmets are were the US M1.  I replaced their heads with map pins, added upside down flamethrower tanks, and added a little wire antenna and now they are spacemen.
Green American spacemen with their support robot and their rocketship.  The rocketship is only $10 and they seem to be plentiful.
