Neat find: Maxx Steele Robot

I visited a local thrift store today and found a Maxx Steele Robot for about $10.00 untested. It looked like a lot of fun so I picked it up. The robot came with the charger, manual, controller, no battery, and some sort of hand mirror which I am guessing can be used in some manner to control it. It didn't have a battery so I put a 12 volt gel cell in it, but it still didn't work. A number of engineers were here tonight, and while I was cooking, they ended up getting the thing to work (the gel cell I used was either uncharged, or there was a bad connection to the battery.) In looking around the web, it seems that it uses a 65C02 processor as the CPU. One web page I found indicated that there were only about 5000 of these things made. I hadn't really planned to collect robots ... but then again, I hadn't planned on collecting computers either :).
