Woodsy, attached is a photo I culled from the 'Net of an Empire Plastic Corp. carded set showing the same type of small vehicles as in the RUSH HOUR blog post by Wotan this month.
Also, if I may point out a nice website run by Kent Owen Sprecher which chronicles more of these small vehicles: Toy Soldier HQ (although there's far and away more than just military toys listed)
Kent's site is set up as a sales site and while he does have a lot for sale, it's greatest attribute is the history of many of the companies shown, the overwhelming quantity of the companies listed, and the multitude of photos. It's a bit difficult finding things at times but the search is half the fun.

That is a great set. I especially like the buildings, something not often seen in these sets. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI agree, the great buildings are great Paul. I would have loved a set like that as a kid.
Deleteme personally, I have never seen a carded set for sale. the loose vehicles are plentiful - the packaging, not so much!
DeleteIts a fabulous carded set Ed for sure!
