View Full Version : Anyone familiar with late 70's "whistle" robots?

The figures were the 3.75 inch size, and had the Kenner Star Wars articulation. Oddly, the robots had a whistle embedded in the chest. I don't know who produced the toys; probably some obscure company from Singapore. I remember my mom buying one for me from the local dime store. One might even confuse the toys as party favors. But they are perhaps a little better quality than a party favor toy (maybe more in line with the Tomland Space Raiders figures)

I don't know what the toy line is called. I assume it has the words "Star", "Space", "War", "Galaxy", or "Battle" in its name. I doubt any of the individual figures are named.

I don't have a picture of one, but rarely I see one or two mixed in with a lot of other toys on Ebay.

Anyone had any of these, or know more about them?

Thanks...
