FARPOINT TOY SHOW FINDS



Hi Woodsy.

Here's a quick view of my Farpoint toy show acquisitions.

First, Star Fortress by Tara Toys.


Made to appeal to the Star Wars set, it's in pretty good shape for a 40 year old cardboard and vinyl folding playset.

Tara Toys used this same pattern (star fortress) to make "Hulk"s Hideaway" playset
And finally, a Hot Wheels Adventures micro playset.


The free rolling vehicle unfolds into a jungle play set complete with cars,a giant ape, a dinosaur and giant spider.How could I pass THAT up?

Well, that's all for now.

Enjoy your time off,

    Well done, Brian! You've managed to add some outstanding finds to your collection. I wonder if there was a specific figure range to go with the Star Fortress? As you can guess, I'm not familiar with it and I can't recall ever seeing the Star Fortress here in the UK?

    Hi Tony.The beauty of this space playset is that you can use it for almost every scale.Army men size,3 3/4 inch,even 6 and 8 inch figures.That was the appeal to me!

    I can see what you mean, Brian. Yes, it would be a perfect playset or even a display piece for space adventures in scale plastic.
    The jungle play set's also fab. I can imagine it wont be long before it's invaded by more of your menagerie of monsters :)
