MAKING THE BEST OF SUMMER'S END

Hi Woodsy. There's no denying it, Summer is over!

The daytime weather is still nice, but leaves are falling and nights are chilly here.

I spent last weekend in Wildwood, where the beaches are mostly deserted and the boardwalk shops are getting ready to close. That means SALES!I rounded up a nice little cache of toys at bargain prices.

Upon returning home, I covered up the pool for the Winter. Next stop, HALLOWEEN! 

I have a few new Mego Monster figures for my Mad Monster Castle display, and I am combing the stores for possible new Halloween decorations. I will keep you posted!-BrianF NJ USA

Statue of Liberty Kit

Hi

               Found another interesting video on You Tube. This one is on the Lindberg Statue of Liberty kit. While that might not seem to be anything to do with Moonbase Central, the kit can be built as a money box, or bank, if you want to. Given that money boxes often appear, I thought it would be an unusual addition to the collection. There are very few kits that can be built this way, this being the only one I can think of.

Has anyone got anything like this?

Corgi Bond Models

Hi

Corgi just sent me some advertising for their new James Bond models, and a link to a page that includes the entire current Corgi Bond range. Given that the subject of Bond models recently came up, I thought it might be of interest.

Is there anything you would buy?

SPOTTING A DITKO

 

I think I can spot Steve Ditko art.

I saw this comic cover online from 1958 and immediately clocked those thick legs, muscles and shadows. Ditko!

Can you spot a Ditko readers?

Have you got a favourite?

MULTIPLE TOYMAKERS' KAMPER AND HOT DOG KINGS

 One of the less well-known Century 21 toys is the Topo Gigio Camper. I've blogged it several times.

Since seeing it for the first time more American versions of the camper have turned up on online by Multiple Toymakers.

They are all Kings of some sort.

This week I found another, the marvellous Kamper King.

Its stablemate is this neat Hot Dog King.

The Ice Cream King and the Topo Gigio Camper can be seen using the labels below.

Anyone know these toys?
