H is for Here's Something a Little Different!

Loot bags! A modern thing, for those 'consolation' presents I mentioned back on the Marx 6" figure post a week or so ago, in our day we just carried our Indian home, letting him look out of the window of the Morris Traveller. Now they get so much stuff, toys, sweets, a sticker sheet, gods - and harassed parents - know what, that they get a bag to put it all in!

 

I'm sure it's just a CAD-CGI-Photoshop mash-up (Don't tell Princess Pure, she'll have the kids on a 'real' spaceship for the official Christmas card!), but I thought the two ships looked plasticky enough for the Blog! In fact, they are somewhat channelling elements of Toy Story or its toy lines?

 

That's it, a small, plastic shopping bag (approximately A5) on Small Scale World, box ticked! And I'm being unfair I know, we had pass-the-parcel, which always had a prize, sometimes some smaller-ones, hidden in the many layers, so some kids did take home a few things? Or a slice of cake, if it was a fruit-cake, which some were . . . in fact, I demand loot bags for 60's kids, now! Sooooounfair!
