A pretty scary looking bunch, if I have nightmares tonight it is all your fault. There have been a few diecasts with Noddy and Big Ears over the years, some going back to the 1950s, very early examples of Star Cars, that even pre-date Corgi.
Yeah, Paul. Some of those old characters who appeared in Newspapers probably have really old toys associated with them. Noddy, Rupert, Felix the Cat, Mickey Mouse et al.
Thank you Terranova47, that is a great site. I shall go back and have a proper look after breakfast. I do not have any of these models, which you very seldom see in NZ, although I do have some of the much later Corgi models (not the 1960s ones).
That reminds me of the old joke...
ReplyDelete"Why have elephants got big ears?"
"Because Noddy won't pay the ransom!"
ha ha, I like it Kid. I forgot about that Big Ears. THE Big Ears!
