I recognised this as soon as I saw it online. A Japanese version of ....
... the 1960's Dr. Who Anti-Dalek Jet Immobiliser toy gun!
This Japanese version is green. My substitute "Billy gun" was blue.
This one is labelled Water Sub Machine Gun on the header ...
and on the toy body as well. Its got a bar code so its not that old.
Woodsy! You've done it again! I've been searching the Web for pics of this toy (off and on).
ReplyDeleteI had a fluoro pink version of this submarine gun water pistol!
The crank action, pulsing squirter was really cool, but unfortunately not robust enough for extended play!
After the crank broke, it really lost a lot of it's appeal!
Mine was definitely late 60's, bought in Woolworths, so this barcoded example must be a later reissue, the header card is not familiar to me.
