In the original story the boy robot is switched on for the first time on 7 April 2003, and Japan treated that date as a real birthday, with a new series, exhibitions and a wave of licensed goods. Pieces from every decade of the character are collected as a record of how deeply he is woven into Japanese life. Toys, clocks and goods made for the domestic market rarely travelled abroad, so the best examples are still found in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Astro Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mechanical clear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35 x 9 x 22 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStatus:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unopened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes are measured by hand; please allow a small margin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnopened.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery photograph is part of the description.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition grade \u003cstrong\u003eS (new)\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Japanese scale; see \u003ca href=\"\/de\/blogs\/news\/japanese-condition-ranks-explained\"\u003eJapanese condition ranks, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaker, date and completeness are given as described and as the photographs show; nothing has been restored or altered by the house unless stated.
