Little late, but yes those ( and the blue drill machine from the first post) are from ZEE Toys USA and callled FIREBIRDS. They are just an attempt to re-use the molds manufactured for the line of toys made by YOT to cash in on the TV show THUNDERBIRDS.
The original packets from YOT had Thunder Birds (2 words) on the packet, were slightly different , and included a TB2 in the line-up.
This Thunder Birds line of toys from YOT were themselves a knockoff of the licensed Thunderbird toys made by the Japanese toy company EDAI Grip.
I've got an image or 2, and some more info., I'll pop on here later if anyone is interested.
Actually, that robot is Qonto from Japan's 'Message From Space' tv show. He was sold in the USA as 'Mini Qonto'- in white, blue/yellow, and red, on a card, by Bandai.
I totally forgot that I actually had this figure when I was about 6. I had the blue/yellow version. I knew he looked familiar!
Thanks for the info on the robot!!!!![]()
Thanks Acrovader. Which one is named Qonto? ---- NEVERMIND, I found it on Amazon in the post below.
