Well, we seem to be at the end of Rack Toy
month, yet I've barely touched Rack Toy Month; hardly any of the stuff left
over from last year (a couple of the knights posts?) got done, hardly any of the other
stuff earmarked for this year's RTM, none of the Indian Canoe posts (which have been added
to), a bunch of shelfies from Brian B, non of mine (well those daft wheeled
dino's aside!), it seems not much really, yet we've seen over 30-posts so there must
have been something!!
Anyway, I think, while I have other stuff
to go, and some H is For's to clear before the next Sandown Park show (only a few
weeks away?), I'll try to keep going with the HK/China cheapie stuff through
September, just to get some of it out of Picasa.
In the meantime - two pieces which missed the Supreme posts; the above was in Playwrite's 2006 trade catalogue and
shows one of the smaller sets, consider selling these (note the different
contents of the boxed one) at a petrol
station or corner shop for £5.50 (if bought in at the blue price) or a mere
fiver (if bought at the red price) and there's always a least 25% profit in there,
plus, those red and blue prices must have some profit for Playwrite built-in,
so god knows what the 'Unit Price' is, but it must be less than peanuts, pound-for pound, or kilo-for-kilo!
This got missed in the final post of that previous
sequence (The Supreme tag will get all of them up), it's a Toysmith set of the cheap polyethylene versions of the small Esci
copies as also carried by Halsall / HTI and Kandytoys.

It is amazing how many products have been marketed with the same few basic components. A castle, a few horses, and a few guys with pots on their heads.
Yes Jan! And it's still the Poor bloody Infantry with pots on their heads who do all the work!
