Ding-A-Lings
By Euphrates



Ding-A-Lings are another favorite made by Topper Toys in the seventies.  These 
5-inch  robots each perform the simple task that they are named for 
(provided you bought the power pack which was sold seperately!) 
and travel on a futuristic track called a Skyway.   Their leader is the 
King Ding, a giant robot that towers over the Ding-A-Lings.  He too 
is battery-operated and even comes with an elevator that takes the 
Brain robot up into his head where he can control him.  Here is a list 
of the robots and the Space Skyway sets:

The Boxer, Claw, Fireman and Constructo are fairly common and can be picked up MIB for $25-$35 to 
this day.  The rest of the figures are much harder and can cost $10-$20 more.  A nice King Ding can 
command up to $350 or even $500 if he is still in his box.


The Space Skyway sets seem to be plentiful, even with their original boxes, and can be had for $50-$125.
