RAISE THE ROOF

I picked up this roofless plastic car in Germany.

The original should look like this [seen on Ebay]

So in the name of completeness I finagled a new roof out of some old plastic for my own.

A lick of black and away we go!

An unusual toy from the glorious year of 1976 by toy icons IDEAL.

This Mobile Mo is just one of a whole fleet of Micro Mighty Mo's. 

Did you ever have one?

The Moonship has Landed

 My home made Moonship is done. It's the one at the back. Century 21 Toys original at the front.

Reunited with my bits box I was able to finish the plane I bought in Germany.

Not perfect by a lunar mile but it'll do.

The home ship has sound effects too. It just needs a flag. But which?

THE PENGUIN'S PARASOL: TOY BIZ UMBRELLA

Rain, rain, rain .....

Where's my umbrella?

One from the 80's was that fishy foe of Gotham, The Penguin, who had a brolly [is that the same as an umbrella?] I recall when cast in plastic for the DC Super Heroes range by Toy Biz.

Here's an image of one I saw on Ebay.

In fact around 2004 I once bought a whole bag full of around twenty loose ones to sell on my old vintage toy stall!

*

Since writing this on MC in 2017 I was chuffed today to find this picture, below, in my archive of one of my old loose Toy Biz Penguin umbrellas that I bought a bag-full of! You can see the central hole, so they must have been the missile firing version.

According to DC in the 80's "Toy Biz released three different versions packaged with different variants of the umbrella weapon: an umbrella that shot a 3/4" missile, an umbrella that shot a 1 1/2" missile, and an umbrella that simply shot off it's umbrella top. Wizard Magazine reported that the 3/4" missile variant was the scarcer one in the early 90s, so at the time that was the one selling at the highest value."

Reading this I wonder if the above carded Penguin has been mis- carded? It says 'missile firing' but there's no hole in the umbrella. Strange! Anyone any the wiser?

PEDAL TO THE MEDAL

I don't think I had a pedal car as a kid but if I did then one of these electric space cars would have hot the mark!

Its got everything; lights, aerials and those cool deltoid angles. Whoa!

What do you think?

Did you have a pedal car pedal car or a go-kart?

Pictures welcomed.

ANOTHER HURDLER

I archived these shots a while back from Ebay.

This toy is the same as the Century 21 Hurdler.

The box is different though.

A great looking toy. I can't see a brand name.

Here's the Century 21 Toys version. The box has no side window.

A TINY TOMY DIGGER

 I picked this little Japanese digger up earlier in the year.

A car boot surprise as its a TOMY miniature.

A lovely thing, I don't know much else about it.

Have you come across one?
