A badge featuring the design of M.K. Perker’s toy named “Robot,” exhibited at the Istanbul Toy Museum.

The Story of the Toy: The word “robot” was first used in a work written by Czech author Pavel in the 1920s. Sunay Akın draws attention to The Wizard of Oz regarding the emergence of the robot. The tin man in this fairy tale is nothing more than an early example of a robot. The first robot toy, Atomicman, was produced as a wind-up toy in Japan in the 1939/40s. Production, which was halted with the start of World War II, revived after the 1950s.
