Plastic Fantastic

 Old toys are so photogenic.

The tinternet is packed with snaps but not all of them have that extra zing.

Here's three from old sales sites that really caught my eye, all sharp and lovely.

Have you got fave toy pictures?

  1. Don't think the Flying Saucer is real Woodsy. It looks like a CG image to me.

    1. A quick Google search reveals it to be a Turbosquid production. What you are buying for $29 is the STL 3D model mesh, so you can print or animate your own version.
      Looks too close to the old Lindberg UFO kit for my tastes!

    2. Good catch! Yes, they filched the Lindberg UFO and sold it as their own! SFZ

    1. 5 terabytes - lots and lots of storage for lots and lots of photos :-)

  3. The Codeg rocket firing armored car has a Horrible Hamilton look to it.

  4. Have you ever had the Ray O Matic X-2 thunderbird 2 toy on your site before? It looks like something that would interest your readers. I don't remember seeing it before.

    1. It appeared a few years ago but there's always room for more Ray O Matic X-2.
