Zeroid Alien
February 15th, 2009
This was a new find for me. I am a big fan of Zeroids generally, and have several, but have never encountered an Alien Zeroid.
The Alien is unique among Zeroids. First, it explodes! Not literally of course, but in the manner of all wonderful 60s and 70s exploding toys – it falls apart. The head and several of the parts pop off when it reaches the end of a path that is programed into it.
Second, you can prorgram it! Sort of. When assembling it from the parts that will eventually blow off, you place a gear inside that determines the Zeroid’s course.
And lastly, the thing is a cyborg alien. All the other Zeroids are just straight up robots.
A very cool toy, and one of the nearest Zeroids I’ve seen.
