DENVER, Pa. (ACNI) – After languishing in an attic for 60 years, an extremely rare battery-operated “Machine Man” with its original box rolled into the auction spotlight on September 24 at Morphy’s and knocked down a world-record auction price for a toy robot. Estimated at $60,000-$90,000, it swiftly made lift-off and swept past expectations to land at $159,900, inclusive of buyer’s premium.
