Trendmasters Judy Robinson FigureReleased by Trendmasters under license of New Line Productions to coincide with the LIS Movie. The series also includes Major West, Will, Dr. Smith, Tybo and the Cyclops. A second series was planned to complete the Robinson family, but all production plans were canceled due to poor sales of the movie merchandise. The Judy Robinson doll stands about 8.5 inches tall. It is fully articulated and comes with twin laser blaster, dressed in a silver flight suit based on episode #1, "The Reluctant Stowaway." It was marketed as an exclusive collector's edition, limited to 12,000 figures.
Mattel's
Lost in Space Switch 'N GoThis playset contained a white styrofoam Jupiter 2, a chariot, and plastic figures of the Robinsons, Major West, Dr. Smith, the Bloop and the Robot. The chariot was a battery operated toy that followed a track made of flexible tubing.
Air is used, however, to actuate various switches to change the direction of the vehicles. Mattel also had versions featuring a GT Racer, a dumptruck, a tank and the Batmobile. The LIS version was apparently the most elaborate, with a alien targets for the missile launcher on the chariot, and scenery. The set was released during 1st season, and between the fragile stryofoam and numerous small parts, very few complete sets still exist. As such, the individual plastic figures are often sold online for collectors looking to complete a set.
The Marusan dolls, which look absolutely nothing like the characters from the show, are among the most highly sought after Lost in Space collectibles. Released in 1967 only in Japan, the seven cast members are represented although Judy/Maureen and John/Don are actually the same figures with minor changes to the hair and faces. Each figure came inside a clear plastic "freezing tube" with white caps on each end and a paper insert. The botton cap had stirrups that held the doll's feet in place. The tube came in a blue cardbox box. Also produced were the B-9 Robot and Chariot, both are so rare that many sources inaccurately refer to them as planned but not produced. The firm's bankruptcy in 1968 almost certainly killed both the production of the toys and any chance of a wider distribution.The Judy doll stands 12 inches tall with rooted synthetic hair. It wears a gray jumpsuit with red piping at the cuffs and shoulder, similar to the space suit. The vinyl boots are light blue.
