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 Toy Tanks

As a follow-up to this morning's which while not as lame as yesterday morning's post was nonetheless a tad 'lean'!



No detailed text needed, it's a comparison between the Imperial Toys Patton and the Shamber's Patton we looked at a couple of few years ago, both based on the Tim-Mee version and similar to the Fairylight/Jimson we looked at here, ages ago; if I get the latter out of storage and obtain a Tim-Mee original we can have a four-way comparison another day!
