Designed & Built by Humanoido
Chain Can Man Robot was built by Humanoido at the USA in 1984 and is a new nostalgic version in the series of the original Can Man robots built by Humanoido in the 1950s.
It was designed to appeal to young kids and had working surplus electronics boards with sound effects and lights. It sported side chains connected to its can upper body torso. The head, body, arms and torso were constructed from old fashioned metal soup cans connected together with wire. It was battery operated and composed of mostly surplus mechanics and electronics found left over in Humanoido's lab. The circuit board and switches were mounted on the front chest where lights and sounds were programmed. The robot was given away in 1999. Unfortunately, there are no remaining photos of Chain Can Man, though it was a fine specimen of a robot that provided may hours of enjoyment.
