Aside from the wonderful Rocket Base, Topper made a couple of other outstanding playsets, such as the Armoured Battalion and Task Force, which accompanied the huge USS Battlewagon. Heres a taster before the actual toys arrive later this week..
....and no, I STILL haven't got a Johnny Seven!
Lookouts scanning the horizon, watchin' for the leviathan Battlewagon to steam onto port :)
ReplyDeleteAlways good to see that Jungle Jack display, which I fondly recall from the window of the local toy store. Got the set for my birthday or St Nick's, can't remember, and had great fun with it until eventually the rifle got confiscated at school for looking too realistic... Last thing to survive was the .45 which eventually was painted Humbral Gun Metal Grey to join a budding display of empty shellcases (mostly found at the police shooting range in the dunes) and real military items from the flea market.
