Robots the Movie Toy Vehicle Sweeper with Exclusive Rodney Figure
You can get the sweeper from the movie Robots at ToyWiz.com. Here's what the website blurb says:
In Robot City an evil scheme is afoot to get rid of outmodes like Rodney Copperbottom and his friends. Kids will love to act out scenes from the ROBOTS movie with the Sweeper vehicle that chomps and swallows their favorite characters. By pulling a lever up-and-down on the sweeper vehicle's spine to open and close the mouth, revealing scary teeth and blades.
The swinging claw arms on the side of the vehicle sweep up to two of the 3.5-inch figures into its mouth at a time. Comes with one Rodney Copperbottom figure.
