    Is this wind up robot rare?

    I think I've seen this wind-up robot in the box going a little pricey but don't know much about wind-up toys. Was this reproduced in the last few years?

    All of these robots have been reproduced, with boxes mostly. They should have "Made in China", rather than "Made in Japan" stamped on them though.

    Yeah, I just looked at one of the pictures and stamped on the leg is "Made in China"....so it is a repro. Original "Made in Japan" tin robots are the ones collectors are after.
