Here's a search I did for toys made by German form Gerscha Strenco. They include a version of the large Cricket-like missile launcher we know from the SpaceX toy range.
Another brand I have never heard of. The rather nice Amphibien-Electric is a 1950s/1960s vintage US LARC-5 Lighter Amphibious Resupply Cargo 5-ton truck, in case that needs identifying, although the hull is a little box-like. While the small tank with a bar joining its centre two road wheels looks like a really bad German Panzer I light tank of the 1930s.
Strenco robot ST-1 is one of my favourites among the primitives. He is still looking for his lost cart.
ReplyDeleteAn honorable quest, the search for the lost cart of Strenco. I like it Arto!
