Robo Force at Zayre in 1984

Philip Reed February 22, 2016

Over the years I’ve reviewed two Robo Force toys here at battlegrip.com (Hun-Dred review here, Maxx Steele review here) and now it’s time for a blast from the past with this newspaper ad from 1984 where we get a look at the robots and vehicles. I wish the scan were better and in color, but what we get is pretty fantastic for a rough scan that was posted to the Google newspaper archives.
