Dyne's Treadwell

Wow, if that flashlight is the criteria for people giving you "artoo" stuff, you must be drowning!

Heh.  Without the handle, the resemblance to Artoo's silhouette is more obvious -- cylindrical body, domed head, and two short "shoulder mounts" that some clearly missing part(s) once attached to.

I guess that's why it was originally described to me as some sort of "robot" that the source had gotten from some long ago promotion.  That description blinded me from seeing what it actually was at first.  I was imagining it was meant to be something along the lines of a toy Cobot, like this one

Though it clearly has a flashlight bulb and a reflector in the "dome", I thought these were intended as some sort of cheesy flashing light for the robot.  There's also a big sliding actuator in back.  It raises the bulb up out of the body a short distance.  In reality, that's a selector for a wide or narrow angle beam, but when you are lead to believe the thing is a toy robot from the early 80s, the phrase "Now with long distance scanner action!" runs through your head.
