About Me

No Fixed Abode, Home Counties, United Kingdom
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

T is for Two - Hong Kong Rack Toy Jeeps

Bought these from Adrian at the Plastic Warrior show in May expressly for Rack Toy Month and nearly forgot to post them!

Haven't attributed them to any sets or maker yet, although I think the gun is similar to a bunch I have in storage which came with armoured cars, but I liked the pinky-red one! The hole in the seats look like they might take the Kamley astronaut but that's not why I posted them and I suspect they may have taken the Monogram/Revell 1:48th scale crew copies; with the officer in peaked-cap leaning his elbow on the seat back?
