If yoy enjoy the movie you'll want to collect this... Jun 22, 2010
By zipper
"Gina"
Gort stands exactly five inches tall. His surface is flawless, free of pits and extraneous lines. He has fine detail and weighs exactly 8 oz. The only problem I notice is his falling over often. He needs a wider base to stand in. Other than that I plan to keep him on my desk.

Those who steal my pens will be reduced to a burnt out cinder! Jul 12, 2008
By A. Miller
The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951) is a favorite of mine. I am not a fan of chotchkes, but I had to have this little guy to adorn and protect my desk. The die cast metal statue meets expectation. I intend to keep him on my desk as proof of my brute pacifism.
Theremin not included.

Gort Jan 10, 2011
By Gordon R. Thomas
This little robot image of Gort is simply worth having if you are a fan of the movie, "The Day the Earth Stood Still". I recommend this buffed-looking version instead of the shiny nickel plated because it is more natural as seen in the movie. There are no moving parts, but it is a heavy solid piece of metal that feels and looks great.
 Gort is cool. In his way, perhaps cooler than Robbie. Sep 08, 2011
By Bruno Richard Hauptmann
I have many gadgets and toys and such in my home office, as I need to play with toys while attempting to think deep thoughts. I have GORT standing inside my desk lamp. He is shiny, sleek, and very cool looking. Robbie (from Forbidden Planet) is probably the best robot ever, but GORT is better in his limited way. GORT is sleek. GORT is no-excuses, no-nonsense Law Enforcement.
The real GORT had 3 sensors under his chin. These are missing from my GORT, which is disappointing. Some people mistakenly think that sensors are breathing holes for the actor occupying the Gort suit. This is not true. They are sensors.
I tried encasing him in a cube of KL93 isotonic bulletproof plastic, but he melted it. So I just left him inside my desk lamp, where he is [apparently] happy.
Clatu berradda nicto.
Die Cast Gort Review Aug 23, 2011
By d.stone
This is a fantastic item. I bought it for my father who shares the same love for old school black and white science fiction films as I do, I was directed here by an owner of a local movie theater who had the exact same item. It looks and feels great, a complete and accurate depiction of one of the greatest movie characters of all time. Thank you so much! We adore it.
