I picked up this little Scalextric set, Starter on Rostrum, for a squid tother day at the boot sale.
In poor shape, I've had fun in the sun untangling the arm string, re-gluing the chap to the rostrum (nearly the wrong way round!), re-attaching some fencing and best of all, ironing the box to stiffen it.
Those clever Scalextric folks made it so that pulling the string raises the arm. I wonder if he held a flag originally?
