 
Omnibot ® 2000 - 5405 by Tomy ®
Tomy ® has created many toy robots throughout the years and in the 80's created a line of small Personal robots. They don't have a true onboard programmable computer but are fun nonetheless. The top of the line was the Omnibot which could pour drinks on a special serving tray. The programming is done by recording the movement commands to a regular cassette tape which can be played back at certain times by using the built-in clock.

| Detailed specific information for this Robot is contained in the Instruction Manual and is available on this site.
