Collectors Call returns with a new episode, Zespy: Robots, airing on Me-TV on Sunday, July 14, 2024, at 6:30 p.m. In this episode, we meet collector Zespy, the owner of Logan Arcade, a unique establishment that combines a bar with a variety of games. Zespy’s collection features an array of quirky robots, ranging from tiny Japanese Telecoma action figures to a life-sized animatronic canine rock band.
Lisa invites pop-culture appraiser and auctioneer Mike Boerschinger to join her as they explore Zespy’s unusual collection. Mike will provide insights into the value of Zespy’s robots and, afterwards, attempt to entice Zespy into a trade. Mike has a vintage Radio Shack “dustbot” on offer, a unique robot designed for household cleaning. Will Zespy be tempted by Mike’s offer, and will he find it worthwhile to part with one of his beloved robots?
Zespy’s collection is an intriguing mix of the whimsical and the wonderful. From tiny action figures that transform into familiar food products to a fully functional animatronic band, it’s a collection that defies expectations. Meanwhile, Mike’s “dustbot” is a rare find, a robot with a practical purpose but an unusual design.
Collectors Call: Zespy: Robots airs on Sunday, July 14, 2024, at 6:30 p.m. on Me-TV.
