Kinder Point of Sale Singapore

Hey there, Moonbasers! Do you like Kinder Surprise toys? Do those kooky designs get you kit-bashing juices flowing?

I saw this Point Of Sale display in Singapore Airport and it really struck a chord with me.

Is it just me, or is this hover truck extremely similar to the things we used to see in Joe 90?

Looey,

Oz Base

Planet of the Apes

Hi Woodsy,  they say these figures are flocked, but I think their great!!!

Crafting the Jungle Craft

 With the Palitoy Action Man Jungle Explorer in mind, I've started making that wonderful orange and white river craft I had as a kid. You know, the one with the outboard motor. What fun in the bath it was!  

I began with a plastic box.

I melted the front.

Old computer leads became the craft's floor, 

Which were painted white.

The oar was wood and plastic,

Cut to shape - sort of! More paint required.

Next, down river!

Spur of the Moment

 Today's modest catch down the boot sale. See anything you like?

An Avon Robot and a modern Smiffys spur because I just liked it! 

Spanish flamenco dancer, Evergreen doll and Thunderbirds Projector slide.

ATOM SUB 7-11

This is a a great looking Atom Sub 7-11; it has a real Gerry Anderson vibe to it.

I think its Italian. It's titled a Sottomarino A Molla. This is the only image I could find, this one on an odd auction site called Catawiki [I thought Catawiki was an encyclopedia site].

Do you like this Atom Sub? Any more info?

Action Man Army Medic Made

 My Action Man Army Medic is done.

More of an impression than a proper copy. It was a no-cost build, as no money was spent. I used what I had so it's not perfect by a long chalk. It was great fun though.

Anyways, to the med tent! Hope you like it.

More Medic Action!

I've had chance to carry on making my Action Man Medic accessories. The stretcher was great fun! It works!

See what you think.

LtoR: stethoscope, crutch (top part is original), folding stretcher and canteen.
