I love miniature toy TV's.
I always have and had lots of different types as a nipper in the Sixties: viewmaster types, which you clicked for a new piccy through the tiny eyepiece; the little TV in the Corgi Lincoln Continental and of course Billy Blastoff's TV.
In the Billy Blastoff knockoff Lunar Scout set the picture used as its mini TV screen is a neat looking and familiar Thunderbird 2.
Ringing bells I found its source. Here it is courtesy of Arto, the boxed and wondrous box art on the Ray Guided X-2 Space Ship..
Taking a look at the real Billy Blastoff's TV by Eldon/ Scalecraft, pictured below, it has a completely different screen picture, though in order to identify it I really need it to be illuminated by Billy's backpack. Can anyone oblige?
Other miniature toy TV pictures welcomed!
