I love the phrase often used by Auctions: a quantity of mixed childrens toys.
Its a phrase which promises hidden gems and lost treasures, exactly the sort of thing we want as we cruise towards a decade of Moon Base!
The UK Auction house Vectis is no exception. Here are a few of the fine 'mixed quantities' they have featured online over the years, boxes of interest to MC readers I'm sure.
First up is this assortment of JR21 Thunderbirds toys. What a trove it is! There's every vehicle from 1 to 5 in there! I don't know whether they were all complete but it must have been like Christmas day 1967 getting this lot!
Next is this selection box of Captain Scarlet collectables. If interest to me are the plastic target figures from the Cap Gun set. If I'd have gone home with this lot I think I maight have had a go at a custom Project SWORD cap gun set like the one Rob G found this year.
Third is this cornucopia of Angels items: books, bags, brushes and, mirrors and interceptors. I wonder of the whole set of brushes and mirrors is there to make up a complete Angels vanity set?
Last but not least is my favourite mixed quantity of toys What a box of goodness! There's so much on there. Can you imagine the fun you'd have sorting through it and trying to ID stuff!
I'll have a go from the pictures. I can see a red missile from the Screaming Mee Mee toy pistol centre left.
What can you ID readers?
