Battery was the problem because in the working mock up wires came out of his back and you had to connect to a larger 9v battery to make it work. Electronics just weren't small enough or cheaply made in that era. That concept, pictured, which I had, you could pop Panthro open in two halves. And there is actually quite a bit of room in the figures chest. I think they wanted you to be able to push a button in his back (shown on pic) and voice heard from a tiny pin hole in the logo in his belt.
I don't have it anymore, because at the time I was crazy into trading and swapping what I had. I regret some of the things I traded because it's all TCs history. Just glad I had the chance to see it. And now tell the stories.
