Actually when I investigated mine I found that he can turn into a really rather credible telescope...well maybe not credible.... as well as fire his eyes about a metre when you press on his head.
If you still need convincing:The place where I bought this robot was right in the seedy heart of the toy empire in HK...down back alleys and past trays of steaming octopus legs and into the bowels of strange smelling shops and labyrinth-esque shopping centres. Hong Kong really has it all! This shop smelt heavily of thinners, I think an intentional thing to make all the customers light headed and make none too wise decisions. It's a good job they didn't have it in the shop selling small ugly plastic monsters* (for extremely high amounts of money considering what they are) or else I would have bought a few in my delirium!
Anyway, speak soon x
* These were Marusan toys, for anyone interested:

the toy is very nice - i think i will buy a gold one when i am back! it's funny that Lightan takes so long to transform, and the enemy is probably watching the transformation and forgot about the child on the floor!
That is very very very cool.
I suppose in Hong Kong when people want a cigarette lit they say "alreet, anyone got a Lightan?"
I feel enlightaned man.
these toys are truly odd... and i can imagine you collecting such things.
you're obviously spending you're money very wisely :D x
Hello Scope!
Hair on 'Hong Kong really has it all':
it does seem to have rather more than all, it's just that all the excess has grown upon one otherwise undernoticed (and neon) section of consciousness, like a mutant, like a tumour.
