We had them at university. Anything that hit the floor that shouldn't have, got cleared up with it. Still didn't manage to break it. Wonderful bits of kit.

He has always had a face, he was, and may still be available in, metal and the face came as stickers to pu on by the seller.  The plastic, domestic, version came out in the early 80s and the company I worked for tested it by kicking it down the stairs to see how strong it was... ::) ::)   In 1983 the Metal Henry was £100, iirc the plastic one was about £80, the same price as they are today...... :o  I have an old metal one in the garage, been abused for many years, gets all the crap jobs, and just keeps on going, great piece of kit..... :y
