Both images consist of a Merten 40mm Wild West figure on the far
left of the line-up, followed by - from left to right - an early Culpitt's cake decoration with separate
base, also issued as carded rack-toys in France by Jouets Super Plastic (JSP) shipped into Portugal by Injectaplastic,
a late Culpitt's version with
integral base, a - probably Hong Kong - copy of Atlantic in that tinny plastic
of the 1990's and a similar Waddington's clone - except it may not be a clone,
but more on that in the relevant post below this, so scroll down if you want more
on all four types.
I couldn't find the Elastolin box, so I couldn't add one each on the right of the
line-up, as I had intended, but they are much-of-a-muchness with the Merten's, only Elastolin's sculpts tent to be slightly sharper in the
sculpting/finish.
I was reading you stuff today. This is an awesome site your running!
