This ace toy has all the chops of the Explorer 12 space toy line. I can't make out the branding. I saw it on auction ages ago.
A double vehicle multi wheeled snow plough maybe.
There appear to be colour variations with different stuff like a radar?
The name's clumsy, Joint Monster, but I think that vehicles can be slotted together on the sides judging by the artwork. It just gets wider and wider!
Is that right?
I suspect trying to turn on the individual units of "your giant monster fleet" once they had all been connected up might be a bit fiddly!
ReplyDeleteI see what you mean Looey! Wonder how it was done!
DeleteThis is basically an Explorer 12 vehicle, which existed prior to Conran's rebranding of the line for British Home Stores. Like Project SWORD, decades before, Conran just sourced a successfully selling rack toy and repackaged it, adding figures, accessories, a base and various new designs for the cab. All E12 vehicles can be joined together by the wheels, as they share a modular wheel joint arrangement. Bill
ReplyDeleteI had a book on modern home interiors by Conran for years Bill. Fascinating stuff. He was everywhere back in the day!
