    FINALLY ! you can get your Swivel O Matic Robot or Astronaut from Japan back to work !  After so many years and having seen so many not working swivel o matic Robots and Astronauts, I finally took the time to solve this problem. Back to the drawing table to create new gears for this robot.
    These tinmade swivel o matic robots and astronauts all have the same problem.: 2 gears between the legs are made of plastic and these gears have one common flaw: these gears "split" on the axle ( In the pictures you see the original gears, the white ones that are split ) Because of this the robot don't work anymore resulting in many of these swivel o matic robots and astronauts in non working condition..
    Now you can bring your swivel o matic robot or astronaut back to life by installing new gears !.
    These 3D printed Gears are an exact copy of the original gears and will fit:
    all variations and colors of Swivel o Matic Astronauts and Robots
    .
    This set includes a short step by step instruction manual,  2 gears, special grease, sanding paper and glue.
    If you want to check your robot if these gears will fit than look between the legs of your robot ! :-) and check if the gearbox looks the same as the one I show in the pictures here.  Installing the gears will take about one hour and you need to have some experience and the correct tools to finish the job. when in doubt.. feel free to contact me.
    The robots and the box showed in the pictures are NOT part of this auction and are only shown for reference.
    Feel free
    to ask me ALL your questions, PRIOR to your bidding.
