Deluxe Arcade Style Animatronic Fortune Teller
Zoltar is an animatronic fortune teller housed in a wheeled cabinet made of oak with birch veneers, painted trim, and three panes of tempered glass. The full-size figure bust is detailed with a handlebar mustache and beard, a gold head wrap, gold shirt, paisley vest, and jewelry.
When you to approach him, Zoltar acknowledges your presence. Once you insert a quarter, Zoltar nods his head up and down, his crystal ball lights up, and he sweeps his hand back and forth.
Zoltar then delivers one of 16 different spoken fortunes and dispenses one of 23 different printed fortunes in the form of a paper card dispensed from the front of the cabinet.
Check out Zoltar the Animatronic Fortune Teller at Hammacher Schlemmer.

There was a much cheaper version that sold for $35, which is no longer made.
An "internet" friend of mine made a nice reproduction of the sign.
