“Rom Action Robot” for $16.88 in 1979
Surprisingly, Parker Brothers’ ROM Space Knight toy has made very few appearances over the years here at battlegrip.com. I’ve posted a few videos and ads over the years (Rom search), but nothing particularly in-depth. Why is that? Likely because I never owned the toy as a kid and I didn’t read the comic book when it was new back in the seventies and eighties. The toy looks cool, though, so whenever I stumble across sweet newspaper ads for the toy you just know I’m gonna stop and capture the image.
