H is for How they Come In - Peter III

Difficult one this as I wanted to get Peter's stuff out once I'd done Theo's and Chris's donations, but I still have a Sandown and a London show in the queue, which should go in that order, but these bits were given to me at the last, recent London Toy Soldier Show, so slightly out of sequence . . . like anyone but me cares about the order of posting!

It's alright! It's still twelfth-night, so we're OK for a bit of crimbo stuff; just! I thought these (upper shot) were a set of three we looked at a year or two ago from Poundland (I think), but they're not, they were all white with touches of black for eyes, these have a full three colour paint-job, with black, red and either flesh or orange, but also a trio and also poured resin, I don't have the brand/maker?

Below are two tree decorations who happen to be the two 'King's men' from a Humpty Dumpty set we will look at again soon. Not clear in this shot are the wire twists set into their backs with which they were attached to the Christmas tree branches.

That blue horse I mentioned a few days ago, he goes with one of the Kinder Frozen sets, next to him is a rather nice novelty skeleton, who actually comes in four parts for a bit of jiggle-action! Along with an Alien 'baby'!

Below them a Timpo FFL-clone and an assault jet-ski! Not sure if we've seen the jet-ski before, but if we have I don't think it had the steering-handle attached?

We've seen a mate of the policeman in a past post I think, I've certainly united them in the last few days, but his 'oppo' might be in one of many charity shop purchases who's photo's are all still in the long queue! Two wrestlers, a Tomte Laerdal jeep with air force types (well they have to be in that colour!) and a handful of useful bits.

Those bits including another of those ubiquitous 'toy town' guardsmen, ubiquitous in the 1990's novelty production industry that is! A Crescent circus horse-clone probably from Maysun, a baby and a clone of the Dinky (or Corgi?) construction vehicle driver.

I've realised, over the Christmas break, that as well as hospital sets, dolls houses and rack toys (baby bath-time type sets etc.), some of these 'odd' babies are actually from Nativity sets, where they get dumped naked in the manger or basket-passing-for-a-manger!

First two on the bottom row here (baby Daisy & Goofy) are Heimo/Bully/Dunby-Combex-Marx types, but the first upper pair are less clear; Donald has a large cavity in his back, and is probably from a die-cast Disney related vehicle of some kind - I have a book on them all somewhere, I'll see if it's in that. The Mickey soldier is a relief flat, possibly from a fridge-magnet, or a hair-clip?

While the two to the right of each row are more of a mystery, I think the upper might be the wolf from the Three Little Pigs story, but doesn't tie-in with Disney's; the hat's wrong? And below him is . . . Figaro? Not sure about the hat again, and the dungarees? So I wonder if they are from another cartoon altogether . . . anyone know who they are; maybe French or Italian kids TV characters?

Thanks as always to Peter for these, they all add to the whole!
