These two 2001 Space Glider boxes showcase the two types of controls they had.
Here's the Radio Control decal on the box front in yellow. The control itself was a plastic rectangular unit with an aerial.
Here's the Sound Control decal in red. You can see the egg-shaped controller.
Have you anything like this readers?
Somewhere I thunk I still have a disc firing Japanese R2D2. I found this Web link, but they list it as radio control. I can assure you it's sonic controlled. The hand unit is a glorified clicker!
ReplyDeleteI do have two Japanese robot tyranosaurs on display which are radio controlled, one is actually Godzilla, but the other is full mecha with a pterodactyl hand unit!
