Nine Desk-Top Accessories that form a Robot!
ARCO pre acquisition by Mattel created a number of licensed items for the Gobots and Robo Machine lines and one of the less typical is Desk-Bot.
Comprised of nine variably useful stationery (some arguably) items Desk-Bot is 100% 80s magic and doesn't compromise too much on the robot mode when housing all the pieces.
Desk-Bot snaps and slots together competently and is overall well made for an ARCO offering.
Region Codes Used: US United States / EU Europe / AU Australia

NOTE: The magnifying glass shown in the box photo is connected to a yellow top of head section that may indicate the prototype colour. The lower part of the head is shown in red also possibly indicating that Desk-Bot was originally planned with a two toned head.
