Having a Dump on the Moon

Park Plastics Lunar Dump and other vehicles from the same series, only one of which I have ever seen twice, the packaged version. Very art deco, streamlined designs, dating from the early sixties. The toys are light plastic with aluminium accents. I remembered these beauties recently and am homping to be able to repair the broken lift arm on the green dozer.

  1. Lovely toy bill. The rod-like barrel reminds me of the spacex lama. Is this something youve had as a kid?

  3. I just picked up two of three of these listed on Ebay a few weeks ago. I got a blue lunar dump and a orange lunar crane. No one bid against me. Another party got the moon cat (sigh). Bob

    1. Congrats Bob. A fine lunar haul! I wonder what they'll construct on the moon?
