A couple of toys caught my eye on old auctions.
A new one on me, the Magnetic Moon Race. I've no idea how it works mind!
And Lilliput, a beautiful set of parts for building structures and cars in townscapes. It my be East German.
What do you think readers?
Oh I'll take that Lilliput, please! Nothing like a toy cityscape! SFZ
ReplyDeleteIt does look gorgeous. Not bad for a Soviet bloc toy SF! I've a book on DDR toys. Some amazing toy vehicles!
DeleteSoviet toy design is amazing - very primitive in some ways, with some strange deco design touches. Love it! SFZ
DeleteEast Germany had its own unique toy industry. Very practical stuff, utilitarian beauty.
