I've often wondered if Century 21 Toys used a Marx Cap Firing Tank as the basis for their Mobile and Bridge Carrying Tank.
I haven't got either but I do have the turret of the Century 21 Toys tank kindly donated by Bill B.
Here's a my thinking in pictures.
What do you think?
Hi Woodsy-
ReplyDeleteWhile they both seem to be the same post-war American tank (Patton M48 I think), various details are different, such as the small machine gun turret on the roof. The C21 version looks better detailed -although perhaps one still copied the other.
Thanks Andy. That's really interesting. Do you think this Marx Tank is a closer match to the C21 one? http://projectswordtoys.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/century-21-and-related-toys-new.html
