It's Bugging Me

 A little while ago I managed to acquire a small Tomy Moon Buggy with 8 wheels. Its part of an ongoing love affair I have with these type of toys and ive blogged a series of articles about them before.

Just recently, the Philosophic Toad uncovered a cool little article from an issue of the TV Times with a mail in offer for one of these little beauties. Its dated 22nd November 1969 so it makes my assumption that the toys were a lot later than that false. A copy of the bigger vehicle in the upper picture is currently for sale on ebay and well worth a look!

    Wote, two questions ...

    (1) Is that a number 3 or 8 on the side of the one you own? I can't quite make it out.

    (2) Where is that link supposed to lead? It seems to take me to my Blogger home page.

    its an '8' on the side, the smaller ones were from the 'Space Eight' series. Link should work now!

    This is the first time I see the image of the box of this wonderful toy. I still have mine since the late 60s and your images brought me some good memories.
