TERRANOVA47's Tin Buses

We've had a wonderful assortment of tin planes, mostly from Ed which prompted me to take some bus pictures after finding a Tin Bus I had forgotten about.

It's the Greyhound version of the MODERN BUS by Black Cat, made in Taiwan. That is only cost $3.69 puts it back in the 1970's and is powered by two C batteries.

Then a Greyhound Bus and a Trailways one, unknown manufacturer, Made in Japan. Unpowered.

Now if like me you remember Tri-ang Minic toys then the London Double Decker, Push n' Go,

 star of Hitchcock's movie Lifeboat is here to

hold up the end for British Tin Toys.

Two versions with different ads.

Enjoy,

Let us know if you get one and send us a snap.

PS. I am in no way connected to Playforever and have not bought this car myself!

GOLDEN BEAR ASTRO VENTURE SPACE SET

 I like this modern set. Check out the video. Do you like it?

The housing module really recalls the similar modules in the fabled Moonbase Play Set of the Project SWORD range.

This modern Golden Bear set may work well with Golden Astronaut SpaceX toys! What do you reckon? Wrong scale?

SPACE IN A TIN

Hi Woodsy, my folks came by and gave my daughter this little generic "not Lego" play set. What a little gem!

Fortunately my daughter had the on-brand astronaut to add to the set, surprisingly good to put together and according to my wife there's lots of Gift in a Tin play-sets, not lego-like but meccano and some wooden builds too! 

Thoroughly recommended!!

Anyone else got one?

BOLEY SPACE EXPLORER PLAY SET

This is a decent modern set by the looks of it, Mini Wheels Space Explorer Play Set by Boley. There's certainly a lot of bits and bobs in there! Anyone got one? The picture's from an Ebay auction, Rhode Island.

Hi Woodsy

My daughter is mad on these lil' dudes! The vehicles are highly detailed and I can't wait for her to get bored of them so I can paint them!!
