Yet another 'Celestial Department Store' outlet shows up and this time Dr. Smith's avarice results in him and Will being trapped inside the machine, held captive by a delusional toymaker and his windup monster. Continuing the trend for colourful, camp and child-friendly stories, this episode has a goofy charm with perennial TV-leprechaun Walter Burke hamming it up as the tetchy artisan in his giant trans-dimensional workshop. Mr. Zumdishh, the mouth-popping interstellar retail executive (who is now charge of outlet demolition), returns along with his bald, bulky enforcer (played by wrestler Tiger Joe Marsh, too bad bald, bulky Tor Johnson wasn't available) and his final mano a mano with John, the Robinson patriarch is entertaining. Although released in January, the episode seems Christmas themed, with snippets and musical cues lifted from 'Miracle on 34th Street'. The special effects are cut-rate (notably the 'images' on the vending machine's screen) and the story slight but the episode is still a small step-up from the previous 'The Questing Beast'. Burke must have impressed Irwin Allen because the diminutive character-actor returns as the titular 'Terrible Leprechaun' in the much reviled 'Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea' episode.
