The Remco Lost in Space Robot, released in 1966, is a battery-powered toy based on the iconic B-9 Robot from the TV series, now a highly sought-after collectible.

Overview and History:

The Remco Lost in Space Robot was introduced in 1966 to capitalize on the popularity of the CBS TV show Lost in Space, which debuted in 1965. Modeled after the B-9 Class YM-3 Robot, it became a standout toy of the space-age era, offering children a chance to interact with a miniature version of the show’s mechanical companion. While the original TV Robot could speak and perform complex movements, the Remco toy was primarily plastic and battery-powered, with most functions manually operated.
