The giant (12") New Meter Robot is a recent revamp of the classic Meter Robot from Metal House, Japan. It has a square head, unlike its cone-head predecessor, and it has given up smoking. Despite being a very recent model, this particular robot is already hard to find.

New Meter is available in one color only, a vibrant canary yellow. The torso features a moving air-pressure gauge on top of lithographed gears and meters and covered by a transparent plastic casing.

When switched on, the robot marches forward while the lever gauge flicks from side to side in its torso and the radar-loop antenna on the left side of its head rotates.

New Meter Robot is all metal and made in Japan by Metal House. Battery operated. (Batteries not included.)

This collector's item is recommended for ages 15+.

Dimensions: 12 x 6 x 3.5 inches (30 x 15 x 9 cm)
