Toko Photoco. Cyclops
The Toko Photoco. Cyclops is a vintage camera that appears in collector catalogues as a Toko Photoco. model. Public specification and production details for this particular camera are not available in the provided data, so this page focuses on what its UK auction record shows.
At UK auction, hammer prices for the Toko Photoco. Cyclops have ranged from £290 to £500, with a midpoint around £390 — these are wholesale saleroom results, not retail asking prices. With only two recorded results (2003 and 2005), the sample is too thin to establish a firm value for what this camera sells for today in 2026, and condition and completeness typically drive where an individual example lands in that range.
