Oh Boy it's a Lincoln Toy! But What does it Do?

This is an odd one. 

A Lincoln toy, the Air Strike Moving Target.

It looks like a plastic gerbil house with two jets on gangplanks.

I've no idea how this works!

You?

SCALEXTRIC FAB 1

As Scalextric did a great job on the FAB 1 I've decided to order the new Spectrum Patrol Car.

Woodsy

I saw your post on MC of the 'Universe' Space themed briefcase and I have a couple of Captain Scarlet ones manufactured by SPK Tokyo. I also have one Joe 90 version but there is a second version plus I have also seen a Marine Boy version. I attach images of them for you.

Space Flying Saucer

 Like the F5 Moon Craft we saw the other week, here's another space saucer new to me.

It's a sort of cone

Apocalypse Now and Then

I recently revisited one of my favourite films, Coppola's Apocalypse Now. It was the Final Cut so there were new things to see, namely, I think, the French family plantation section. I'm convinced I've never seen that before.

Couldn't spot anything else but it is a long flick. My favourite element is Martin Sheen's narration (it certainly sounds like him). I could listen to it all day long, especially as it fades out as the scene takes over.

The dialogue in general is just fabulous, even beyond the famous I love the Smell of Napalm ....

A great little line, one of many, is in the narration:

"Air Mobile (pronounced mobul), well, those boys just couldn't stay put!"

A superb movie: riveting, shocking, hypnotizing. Realistic? That I don't know. 

Do you like it readers? Are you a fan of Coppola?

Up and Down with LP's Clown

 It's great to get close ups from an auction of the LP clown car. 

Looking a lot like an early Pennywise, he's all geared up to trundle in his motor.

Looking at the axle it probably bobbed up and down too.

It's always interesting to see more of LPs output, besides their better-known space toys and astronauts.

Have you got any LP toys readers?
