Considering the prices of normal II's and IIe's at the moment, I'd say that this is a low-ish price, especially for a J-plus.

Fun fact: Back in the day of the J-Plus, Apple brand recognition in Japan was so low, they used fridge trucks to transport Apple Computers because they thought they were perishable fruit.

Uh, and a robot. Built with an Apple II motherboard... what?
The Royal II clone was interesting, but found something else interesting in the related items- a II clone by Zapple. Coincidentally, me and my friend recently made a parody on a thing I'd drawn about Apple with a (what we thought was) fictional company called Zapple.
Zapple? Zapping apples?
Oh, wait. I know. Zapping Apple's copyrights out of their way.
