Not sure about that Star, I think the market might be limited. The whole concept of it is quite awful really. For those who do not know, it was a money box. Put the money in his hand, turn the ears and then the arm is raised and the money goes into his mouth.

Shudder.....

Magic Robot; My sister still has hers. Hidden in a cupboard! For what ?
