From the left; A wooden Christmas tree
decoration based on the nutcracker trope, a poured-resin chap '© G•G.' (Gisela Graham?) from Peter Evans and the Toyway guardsman from Chris Smith (who
remembered they were Toyway after I'd
posted him the other day, the RHA figure, also from Chris was another one).
Then another wooden one, this is a
push-button/drop-down strung-toy, he's actually almost the shortest, but with a
30mm plinth would have looked silly towering over the first three had I placed
him to the left!
The fabric Guard I found last
November/December in TKMaxx (made in India),
and finally a stacking toy which I suspect is quite modern, but which resembles
one we had as kids. I occasionally see it on evilBay (the vintage one) and keep
meaning to get one, it's a taller, thinner model, and the larger-number of
segments are tapered, so have to be stacked in order.
That would have been it, but - of course -
in the putting away of the one lot, I re-discovered the others! So, from the
left; The twin-LED torch who plays some god-awful rendition of the National Anthem, or
Rule Britannia . . . or the other one? He's on the blog somewhere with his full
consumer details!
Then the flat, probably from a wooden fort
set of the early-learning type (and looking more Wellingtonian next to the
others), another tree decoration, based on nut-cracker tropes, then another
push-button/drop-down strung-toy, both being about the same size as their
counterparts in the first image, the wobbly one being tagged to Wilco and finally the Noki washing-up sponge seen before, but
I think all this second batch have.
Airfix sax-player for scale, he's
approximately 23mm.
