The Voltron Starshooter 110 is a toy camera in the best meaning of the word. It looks like a cheap plastic fake SLR with viewfinder and awful plastic lens. But you have to play with it for finding out that it's much more a toy than many so-called "toy camera"s which often are just bad cameras. Then it unfolds and becomes a science fiction hero just like jumped out of the computer screen from a space invaders shooting game. But the puppet is also a camera, its shoulder region contains a real pocket camera for type No. 110 film cartridges. It was made in Macau (then Portugual, now China) for Impulse Ltd. of Missouri (USA) in 1985. As of 8/28/2011, one can be found as being sold on ebay for a one-week auction.
