One Christmas Doug and I received a super gift from Santa. It was Robot Commando, which we called Robby the Robot (Not sure why, but we have always called it Robby even though that was a different kind of robot). This was the coolest toy in the world. It had a motor that made the track drive move him forward and backward. He had a wire to a remote that if you yelled FIRE, it would open a hatch in his head and shoot a rocket. As the robot became more familiar, we realized just blowing silently into the remote would do the same thing with the rocket. Still a very advanced toy for the day we liven in. Check out this commercial advertising the toy. No wonder we thought it was so cool!
