Licence to Stick! The JR21 Dart Pistol

Donated by Steve, proprietor of the cool Vintage Thunderbirds Toys site, this fab JR21 toy was a prize on the blog's first birthday competition way back in 2009. Points of interest are the US Cents price tag and Sean Connery lookalike, both obviously trying to appeal to the American market. Assuming that this is from the mid-Sixties, its contemporaries on both side of the Atlantic will have been Topper Toys's popular Secret Sam Attache Case, which also had a periscope, and the Multiple Toys James Bond Attache Case. A gorgeous JR toy!
