I bought a box of old tat this morning at a German car boot for two squid before the regen showers drove us away.
I've ID'd some of the toys over Frühstuck. Excitingly I think the silver knight parts are the Aurora Red Knight and they look battered enough to be original.
The Star Wars parts appear to bodies and limbs from the 1995 Power of the Force Boba, Darth Vader and Tie Fighter pilot along with a 1996 Shadow of the Empire Prince Xizor, a new one on me.
TTherte are some Elastolin viking torsos and bases, together with a mixed lot of old German plastic and metal bits like Crucifixes and a snowman.
The motley crew centre front is a mystery. Toy pistols, a raygun, a lizardskin arm, a solid metal cape, a red seat and so on. Any help with these readers and would be very dankbar!
The scaly arm belongs to Bossk
ReplyDeleteThat's a great opening line for a book Brian! Thanks. Hope all's well in Monster Base. Three months to Halloween!
DeleteSo I looked up the German word 'regen' and it means 'rain'.
ReplyDeleteMakes sense really.
I do try to throw in a few words of the Deutsche Sprache whilst I'm here Mish! Well done!
Deletecurly thing next to Bossk is Boba Fetts wookie Scalps and his cape is at the bottom
DeleteWookie scalps? How gross! Get off Chewie Fett!
DeleteThanks!
Deletebig silver rocket on left is grom a hong kong space toy, larger weapons are Chap Mei or Lanard.
ReplyDeleteTa. Just ID'd the smaller black rifle blaster as Boba's, PoTF.
DeleteI've reAlised this was a bits box of a modeller, probably figures and soldiers. There's been a lot of limb surgery!
ReplyDeleteDear Woodsy,
ReplyDeleteThe little Colt (pistol), the snowman and the red seat are all Playmobil. The latter has been cut off from a Playmobil car's interior presumeably.
Liebe Grüße (kind regards) from Germany
