An Original Vintage Die Cast Figure (measures 2 1/2" x 2 3/4" x 5 1/2" [6 x 7 x 14 cm]) (Learn More) Robby the Robot is a fictional character and science fiction (sci-fi) icon who first appeared in the 1956 film Forbidden Planet. Because of his popularity (and perhaps to recoup the cost of his creation), he made a number of subsequent appearances in movies and television programs, usually without specific reference to the original film character. He was designed by members of the MGM art department and constructed by the studio's prop department at a reported cost of $125,000. The original Robby the Robot was sold at an auction in 2017 for over 5 million dollars and is the most expensive film prop ever sold at auction. Important Added Info: Note that this item needs to be shipped in a box, which might be a fairly small box, or might be a larger box. What is important for the bidders to know is that this item very likely CAN'T be combined with other purchases, because there would not be much savings if any, because this item will be in a box with substantial depth (because the item is "three-dimensional"), while other purchases will be in a flat package, and trying to combine them would likely damage this item. If you purchase multiple items like this (ones that need to be packed in a box), then they likely can be combined with each other (unless the resulting box is simply too large). So please bear in mind that this item likely must be sent separately in a box (the size and depth of the box will depend on the size of the item), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it (so if you would pay $150 for the item, but the shipping is likely $100, then only bid $50 for the item). Condition: very good. The box has opened and has some general wear but the figure is die cast and is in pretty nice condition. Learn More about condition grades
