Rare Argentina Vintage toy robots, need help pleas

[norber]

Hi guys, I am after some help a friend of mine knowing that I am a toy collector asked me about two vintage argentine circa 1960 tin robots, I know one is similar to a japanese model but the other the Daisa one, is not common, in fact very rare no one here knows about this one (Daisa was a toy company that made kitchen toys)

thanks

I have seen a similar tin toy, but it was Japanese made .

That Daisa robot is gorgeous (to me)- it screams 1950's
and has designer kitsch written all over it!

That's the sort of toy you'd see in a museum because the style and color typify post war modernism.

It's a jewel alright and if you ever want to trade something for it drop me an email.

This site has many beautiful robots on it and the collection is well presented within the site itself.
