1988 Pee-Wee Pterri the Pteradactyl Stuffed Toy in Box
Manufacturer: Matchbox Item 3520
Condition: Good figure and Box
First edition vintage collectable
From the amazing mind of Paul Reubens it’s one of the stars of the 80’s – 90’s TV show Pee-Wee’s Playhouse, it’s vintage Pterri the Pteradactyl! Pterri is 13” tall made of stuffed and sewn polyester and polyurethane. Everyone in the Playhouse agrees Pterri is the most cuddly Pteradactyl ever! Pterri is about 12” tall from eyeballs to claws, and his tail is another 7” long and his poseable wings stretch out to almost two feet across! Push the front of Pterri’s chest and his wings will flap!
The colorful box shows photos from the TV show and has a slight crease on the logo at the front of the box. Both that area and the top back of the box are arced slightly from the area where it touches the back of Pterri’s head, but it doesn’t detract from the overall amazing condtion of the box. Box size: 13 1/2“ x 15 1/2” 5 3/4“ Photos are of of actual item. Climate controlled storage and minimally handled. Sold as is. Only one available.
NOTE: This item was recently inspected, and we discovered some surface damage to the back of Pterri. (see photo). It was only visible once the figure was removed from the box, which he’d been in for over 30 years. Damage appears to be where the back of the puppet touched the box. The box does not show signs of damage. When Pterri is re-attached to the box for display (with the original twist ties), the damage is not readily apparent, as you can see on the other photos. Additionally, one of the wing struts is broken. The wings do not flap when in the box so only upon removing was this discovered. For these reasons we’ve put Pterri at a CLOSEOUT PRICE. Still in great display condition with the original box!

1970’s Brushy the Floating Robot
Year: 1970’s
Manufacturer: Unknown
Condition: Very good condition robot and good condition box with little shelf-wear. It has a shallow wrinkle on one side of the box, but otherwise looks good.
First edition vintage collectable
Here’s a novel robot for collectors or just for fun! Brushy the Floating Robot is actually a made up name, because the package says just “Robot” which is not very clever. Brushy is about 5 1/2″ tall, has a radar dish on his head, wheel gears for arms, and a 3 arm wrench on his chest. His most unique feature is his feet. Instead of wheels or legs, Brushy has (let’s say it together) BRUSH for feet! They’re basically bristles like you’d find on a hairbrush. So how does a robot with brushes for feet move? Flip the switch under his left arm and Brushy starts vibrating and floating around, going nowhere fast on his unique brush feet. See video below.
The box is 3 1/2″ x 3″ x 5 1/2″ and is in good condition, no rips or tears, just some aging and shelf wear.

1970’s Horikawa Space Walk Man Metal Robot with Light / Sound Action
Year: Late 1970’s
Manufacturer: Horikawa Item ME 100
Condition: Very good condition robot and package
First edition vintage collectable
Horikawa was a master of toy robot design, beginning in the 1959 with wind up robots and continuing through the 1990’s. Horikawa robots have a unique style with evolving features over time while maintaining a familiar look and feel.
Designed to command attention, this is a late 1970’s edition of the Horikawa all tin robot in the original box. 12″ in height with an all-tin lithographed black body and blue metal robot feet. The robot looks great just standing still. But the moment you flip the switch on his back the action really begins!
The robot starts walking, then the doors on his chest swing open and his built in robo-guns start blasting the room with bright flashing lights and loud shooting sounds. Then he spins, rotating at the hips 3 times, shooting the whole time, before his doors close and he advances for more carnage. Not subtle! Lots of amazing light, sound and moving action. See the video below.
We purchase this item in 1980. No rust or corrosion. The back of the robot’s block head has a few scratches, but otherwise it’s in great shape and works well. The battery compartment is clean, and uses 2 D batteries (not included). This is a finely crafted item and a great example of a well-designed mechanical robot toy and makes a great gift.
The package is 6 1/2″ x 5″ x 12 3/4″ in size and is in good condition with a few dings and creases but looks nice.
