Hi,
Woodsy kindly sent me some scrap parts recently that I could use in model making. Included were parts that made little racing cars.
I remember these cereal gifts from my youth and couldn't bring myself to cut them up, so made this scene instead!
Take care,
Kevin D

Woodsy adds: these spare parts were originally donated to Moonbase as part of a larger group of cereal premiums many years ago from long-time reader and supporter Andy B. Thanks Andy!
I remember them - had a few as well.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I can't remember these from childhood, I really like what you've done with them. Super detail, Kevin. They look ace :)
ReplyDeleteThanks. They are remarkably accurate for their size.
ReplyDeletethats a premium job indeed Kev. I love the way you can take the hub and engine covers off. Amazing detail from R&L's days producing superb cereal toys.
ReplyDeleteThey look incredible!-the originals were actually bought from a toy shop, so if they were designed as cereal premiums, looks like somebody marketed the surplus in shops.
ReplyDeleteThanks. They've had an interesting journey!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work Kev. I had to look twice. Are these really the small plastic racing car parts I sent you?
ReplyDeleteThanks. Yep, those are they and many thanks for them!
