Well, its been LN LP Tuesday!
Not only did we have a cool new LN Mechanical Fish, now we have this full set of LP animals new to MC!
The Ebay listing says it was found in a retail box of four. The set comes boxed in a plain white carton and appears to have its own colourful background card, which I think portrays a circus.
This circus idea fits as we've seen a LP Circus Car before, albeit different: http://projectswordtoys.blogspot.com/2016/08/lp-brand-circus-car-toy.html
This set contains lots of animals new to the blog and I can only assume that they are indeed LP. The set contains just 4 of the 10 known jazz band players.
Does anyone know anymore about this circus set or LP animals at all?
This set is listed by Its Sold Here in Pennsylvania, USA on Ebay.com as an IDL set.
Given the number of LN and LP toys we know about, including all these animals, it'd be great to have a full list with model numbers and small pics maybe. Some work has already been done and there's tons of info here on MC [labels and search!] and Paul Vreede's wonderful Triang SpaceX Toys website.
Anyone fancy doing it whilst we're in solitary?
What a great set, hours of fun. They seem to have covered just about the entire animal kingdom.
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty cool Paul.
Deletehttps://isengard75.wixsite.com/fantazootoys Have a look at this, I tried to put together a list of all items I know of belonging to the same series, or other related ones. Some of those you display are missing, though.

ReplyDeleteTotally brilliant Dottore, I love your work and your site! Thanks so much for sharing, I will promote it here. LP toy collectors may never have seen some of the toys you have! Amazing!
DeleteThanks to you, your photos made me aware of sets unknown to me. It would be interesting to build up the chronology, they must date back to the 50's, but I am not sure. Also, there is no official listing of these series, to my knowledge, and no apparent continuity although it is evident that some series are inspired to one another and they develop in a sequence, for instance the 901-... numbered (70's-80's) follow the A1... (50's-60's), but the choice of the code is oscure. Moreover, some other codes are 200 or 400, apparently isolated, and this makes it mistier.
ReplyDeleteHi Dottore. Nice to hear from you. A reader sent me a list of toy numbers for these toys. It may have been you! I will publish it soon.Keep checking here. In the meantime checkout Lik Be toys on the Small Scale Website. Lik Be is LP.
