    Apparently it tells the future, somewhat similarly to a magic 8-ball. Does anyone here happen to own one?

    I'd like to know if someone has one that works. I've been casually looking for one since 2008 and have only seen it on auctions 4 times (priced up to $200 USD) and they all said "toy is broken / we can't get it to work".

    God Jesus Robot has his own Facebook page and t-shirt and is in the lyrics to a 1986 Elvis Costello song Tokyo Storm Warning..."Japanese God-Jesus robots telling teenage fortunes".

    SOme days ago I saw that in some parts in India there's a new trend where people actually go to a robot and ask their fortunes. :|

    I've wanted one for a really long time, but likewise. I don't think I've ever seen one operational in over a decade hahaha
