Four Star “Convertible Robot” Lunch Box
You may remember the Four Star Lock-Man cheap transforming robot toy that I reviewed last month. Well, the Four Star company returns today with another bit of robot fun from the eighties: A lunchbox! This Convertible Robot artwork is fantastic, and looking at this I cannot help but ask: Did Four Star release this design as an actual toy in the eighties?
This lunchbox is going to make a fabulous shelf piece alongside my growing collection of cheap transforming robot toys. I wish there was a date on the lunchbox, but all I can do is rest comfortably knowing this had to have come from 1984 or 1985. I’m betting 1985, but I’ve got nothing but a hunch to back up my thought that it’s from 1985.
