Important factoids:
- he's my height 5'11"
- cost $920K to build (in 2017 $)
-  Robby was reused frequently; he "starred" in The Invisible Boy (1957) and appeared in many TV series, including Lost in Space, The Addams Family, and The Twilight Zone; and Gremlins

I guess obscure is in the eye of the beholder. This was a pretty big hit when it came out, and still has a pretty big cult following (similar to War of the Gargantuas)
