Some cool old toys

2 posts in this topic

Grandpa just passed these cool toys onto our 10 year old son. This is pretty awesome. I have a fishing rod from my Grandpa but I did not get it until after he passed. I'm glad that we have them. Anybody have any idea on the time frame of these? I'm thinking early 80's sometime.

Just stumbled across this thread while I am sitting on the ground waiting for a warm front to pass through ... i.e. killing today and hoping tomorrow will bring some good CAVOK.

Anyway, I recognize nearly all of these models and think I probably own a few of them. The London bus in particular looks really familiar.

I will be in the UK week after next, so if I get a few minutes free I will climb up into the attic and have a look.

I think you are probably on the money with dating them in the 80s. I picked up most of mine during my reprobate years through to about 88.

I will keep you posted and try to bring some pics back too.
