mystery vintage toy bubble pack

Here's a brainteaser for you.

This vintage Joseph International Tommy Turtle is packaged in a clear window bubble pack with a blue card base.


This same or similar clear pack and card base was used for a much more well-known range of space toys in the Sixties. Individual vehicles came in the packs although these packs may not have been that common.

Can you name the toy range readers?

      It does look something like an Edai Grip bubble I agree Bill but the one I'm thinking of is much closer. Alas I can't find a single picture of it online. i bought one from TV Toyzone or Jim Stevenson in the 1990's and sold it on much later. Typically I didn't take a picture of it back then so I may never be able to prove what I'm on about!

      Nope. I'll keep you in suspense awhile longer in case anyone comes up trumps. I could really do with finding a picture of what I mean.
