Several
years ago, entertainment executive Fred Barton came to FinCo with
an interesting product idea. He wanted to sell full-sized fiberglass
reproductions of Robby the Robot, the famous movie robot that starred
in “Forbidden Planet,” “Lost in Space” and other sci-fi shows dating
from the 1950s right on through the new millennium. Fred had even
acquired the original “Robby the Robot,” which was essentially an
elaborate movie costume worn by a small actor who operated the robot
suit from the inside.
Our
craftsmen disassembled the “Robby” costume, and then used the parts
to create molds for reproducing much of the robot in fiberglass.
Fred Barton still uses our molds to create his Robby replicas. Movie
buffs can buy their own studio licensed Robby the Robots from
