The Banana Splits' Beach Buggy, Wallace and Gromit's Austin A35, the Trotter's Reliant Robin, the Routemaster from ' The Double Deckers', I mean, I could go on ...
Yes, soooo many to choose from. The Batmobile is at the top of course, but I think for me, the Munstermobile is a close second. That was one cool car (along with Drag-u-la of course).
For me , the original Batmobile. The reason being that I can clearly remember the first box of 6 corgi Batmobiles being delivered to my father’s shop and being allowed to open it! ! The thrill of taking one out and looking at it for the first time has never left me. Will O
I don’t remember sword toys in the shop, but clearly remember SpaceX! They came from the triang wholesale division and not through triang proper. Our local wholesaler was W H Smith in Northampton. It was Christmas 1969 when I got my first spacex toys, I think dad tried them out on me before deciding to stock them! Of course I loved them,so I think he started stocking them the following year, Will O
The 1966 TV Batmobile
ReplyDeleteIt's a strong contender!

I agree Scott. There's quite a few! I have a real fondness for the Green Hornet's Black Beauty too!

ReplyDeleteGood one Ed. Yes, the Munsters motor! Followed closely by the haunted house car in the Wacky Races, The name eludes me!

Holy smoke! I can see why that's special. Fancy growing up in a toy shop. Wonderful Will! Do you recall SWORD and SpaceX toys in the shop?
