Draw Back, Robin and Release

 Did you have a toy bow and arrow?

Easter in Blighty was a good time to test them out in the garden as a kid.

Watching DC's The Arrow brought it all back, how much I liked bows back then, simple wooden lats with tight string and sucker arrows. 

I had a look to see what was out there today.

Marvel's Hawkeye gets a neat set. No sign of one for DC's Green Arrow tho! 

And I'd have adored this Ninja toy as a buffing Samurai in the early Seventies.

This is a King, although I don't recognise the characters. There's a toy pistol that's completely out of place.

And to the simpler stuff. Like I had.

Robin Hood.

Wild West.

I think they're both plastic bows. It must be uncommon to find a wooden toy now.
