Speaking of toys based on television shows, movies, etc: Two shows I was into when I was a kid were "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" and "Lost in Space." I remember the Sears catalog had a VTTBOTS submarine. This was a battery powered sub and was part of a whole line of VTTBOTS toys. They also had a whole set of LIS space toys, including a battery-powered robot (it could have even had a tape in it that said "Danger, Danger"; my memory is a little fuzzy on that one). I put the submarine on my Christmas list for five years in a row. I never did get one. I was pretty disappointed until I grew out of that phase. I did get a VTTBOTS lunchbox, though. It's still on a shelf at my parents house. I'll have to pick it up one of these days. So, was anyone lucky enough to get the VTTBOTS set? -- Walt Tucker Tektronix, Inc.
