Mystery Monsters

I keep seeing these plastic monsters online. 

There's single colours and also painted ones.

Anyone know what they are? 

The Plancruiser Mystery

Woodsy,

One of the items in Museo Leikki exhibition is this uncut sheet to build a Plancruiser rocket ship, accompanied with some spacemen and alien life forms.

Published by Kuvataide in 1957, its name suggests that it is a Finnish issue of a foreign original, very likely a British one. However, searching the internet gives no results.

Any help in recognizing the origins of the Plancruiser would be greatly appreciated.

Mystery Stingray

I saw this old sale item and thought, which toy Stingray has a multi-coloured ratemaster like this?

Anyone know?

The Cylon Action Figure Tank: More Mystery!

Even more cylonanigans! Based on the full-size Battlestar Galactica show tank I posted earlier, here's a toy version! 

Is this a custom one-off? Did Mattel release it?

The Cylon Tank Mystery!

This is something I had no idea about. A full size Cylon tank show prop. Has anyone seen it? Do you like it?

Mystery Spanish SpaceX

Being a fan of knockoff SpaceX toys I was intrigued by two which appeared on Spain's Todocollecion.

I'm used to seeing Bullycan's Aviones Cosmicos there but the seller thought the pair maybe another vintage Spanish brand well-known for simple plastic toys,namely Montaplex.

All my Aviones Cosmicos is in storage so I can't really compare them to the pictures.

See what you think, images from Todocollecion.

The Mystery of the Thunder Ball

 Ten years ago I posted this picture of a Vectis auction bundle from 2012.

At the far right is this Thunder Ball, the box photo side I enlarged a little.

To this day neither the toy itself or the origin of the space helmeted boy have been identified or explained.

Can you break the mystery of the Thunder Ball?!

Moon Explorer and Mystery Von Braun

 This was an interesting bundle I saw on auction.

I love the boxed Moon Explorer car. What a design! 

What's the leaflet at the back in German? It says Reach for the Stars or similar? Is that Werner Von Braun pictured?  

8 Wheel Mystery

I saw this on auction, an odd looking winged vehicle like a Thunderbirds transporter car welded to a formula 1 racer! 

Made in Japan. I can't read the Japanese script.

What do you think?!

Mystery Plastic Craft

 There's some mystery spacecraft in this medley I saw online ages ago. 

The yellow and green craft are new to me.

Any ideas? 

The Car Boot Strikes Back

Here's my car boot booty from this morning. 

Skeletor 1981, Darth Vader voice Changer 2004, little mystery figure, Shredder 1988.

Any good?

Star Explorer or Copycat?

I like this cheapo Star Explorer car. 

It really rings a bell though.

There's another toy like it.

But what?

Update!

I remembered!

The Terminator car!

Mystery SPV

 I saw this SPV on a Japanese auction. It's an odd one, anyone any idea what make it is?

Mystery Ship: Solved!

 Here's a mystery toy ship.

It looks well designed but I've no idea what it is.

You?

An anonymous reader solved this one. It's the Kidco Super Star Cruiser.

Quelle International also released this toy in Europe, called simply Raumschiff or Spaceship.

There's also a Japanese Yonezawa version, which may well be the original and have it's roots in Anime? I don't know.

Here is a lovely webpage all about the Yonezawa version.

TH3 Anyone?

 I see these TH3 figures now and then by Edison.

They look great!

This is Tharos. I think it's a female.

Any one got any or know much about them?

Mystery Figure

 

I saw this in Pocklington. Made in China, it's a new one on me. You?

Left Hanging: The Giant Captain Lazer Mystery

Another old photo! 

Thirteen years ago I re-posted this 1969 image of a giant suspended Captain Lazer, which I borrowed from this great website: 

http://www.captainlazer.com/capt.htm 

At the time it generated a vibrant and thoughtful debate in MC's comments. Re-reading them it seems to me that the mystery of the image was never really settled.

Has anyone in today's readership any new info or insights into this giant hanging Captain?

Mystery Robot Inflatable 1955 Manchester

Is this an Archer robot?

Daimon Man

This is a new one on me, a Daimon action figure. 

I saw it on an Italian auction. It could be advertising a firm, Daimon? 

Anyone any clue? 

Mystery Action Figure

 I saw this on the Spanish auction Todocollecion.

It's a mystery figure.

Anyone any clue?
