    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...

      Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately that not the one. Still, that one is pretty cool..
