Why didn't they use vacuum-cleaners? Apply
the nozzle to the scrotum, switch-on, when the patient screams, switch-off,
bingo - two descended testicles! Might have saved the world a whole heap of
trouble...?
Atlantic, closer to 60mm than 54, and
looking like he's about 21-and-three-quarters, it is the devil incarnate, Adolf
Hitler, and, not half as rare as its price at toy shows would suggest! They've
got the hair right though and the little 'tash is present, so he could be
painted-up quite adequately by someone more skilled than me.
We have actually seen the whole set in1:76/72nd scale here so this is a real box-ticker, and there is no difference
between any of these other than the rear-axle of the Volksdunekubelbuggyvargen
which plugs-on (like the front one) in small-scale but slides through holders
in the large-scale one.
Also there are various extra holes (in the
larger scale), which I think may have been for seats which were replaced by
clamps before final tooling, these are to hold Der Fuhrer when he's
standing in the back ranting some racist bollocks at gullible, stupid people.
The rest of the mob, don't they look happy!
Nothing like a bit of genocide to put a smile on your face; ask the Burmese,
ask Bolsanaro! Note these are in a completely different colour, a sort of
purple-brown to the previous chocolate of the Hitler and vehicles, I've also
seen them in a ginger-brown; so they must have had at least three runs of the
tool and can't be rare, just hidden!
To be fair I've seen toy-show dealers with
multiples of the Hitler and Mussolini/Carabinieri band sets, the hard ones to
find (in both scales) are the Mao and Stalin set, but only because they sold
better, however they do turn-up in dribs and drabs in lots of colours, so again
plenty made.
Yer'man again! Maybe it had descended, and
got pushed back up again by the wearing of all those tight jodhpurs and
tailored cavalry twills? No wonder he had a temper! They should have adopted
battle-dress earlier - baggy as a sack, but at least your own sack hung free!
We wish! But to be fair - I don't think it
would have solved anything? As you can see; the figure is well over the line
for 1:32nd scale.
That's right stick the little blighter right in the arse.
ReplyDeleteGhastly toys -completely agree with your comments.
ReplyDeleteNot totally surprised these are from Italy, remember the fascist graffiti when I was there c.1980, only country where I hav seen the fascists more popular was post-communist Hungary.
Hi Both
ReplyDeleteNice to see the correct spelling of 'arse' Jan!
Cheers Andy, listening to this lunchtimes shenanigans in Westminster, I wonder hoe much longer we'll be free of these idiotic types! Boris/Farage (rhymes with C**t) coalition anyone?
