1960s, Made in Japan by SH Horikawa, Silver Ray Secret Weapon Space Scout astronaut robot. A variation of the similar first version Mr. Zerox. Silver Ray Space Scout has a human face behind the face visor and what appears to be a camera in the chest panel, however when it stops the chest panel drops down to reveal a shooting canon with a rat-a-tat sound, something of a James Bond secret agent weapon, as the name suggests. This robot is difficult to find and even more difficult to find one in good condition, the vacuum silver plating is almost aways tarnished due to sweaty fingers eroding the surface. The price refects the condition, mint boxed makes top money. See my video of Mr. Zerox robot which has the same body pressing and actions, but is in the normal Horikawa brown colour.
