While this one wasn’t mine, I sure played with it a lot. It was little more than an 8-track tape player with special tapes. When the “robot” asked you a question, you “answered” by pressing one of the four buttons which would take you to a different stereo track. All-in-all it was a clever use of crappy 8-track technology and we played it to death. That’s more than I can say for most of today’s electronic toys that will be abandoned by lunchtime on Christmas day.
Merry Christmas, everyone!

Dude!
I loved that thing growing up. Part toy, part ABBA player.
