If we've had Scully & Sully, we must be into the festive season, but there's another box to tick, before we can consider the season complete, if you know what I mean, and so, earlier than some years, here's the display in Fleet Library of the annual toy-related exhibition by the Fleet & Crookham Local historical Society.
A coincidence, I'm sure!
Loved Fuzzy felt when we were younger!
Seen on the Blog, in three colours? Rosebud - bought by/swallowed by Mattel.
Rushden has its own Local History group;
They're just very expensive Gonks for a generation who never had Gonks!
Mon'Kay! He has a very complicated history, involving two brands!
I've noticed that while Johnny Vegas can mention the monkey, he has 'lost' him,
and apparently can't legally discuss anything else about him!
Our gyroscope had a metal 'Eifel Tower'!
The tin-plate racing car looks modern?
New to me.
Nope! That Dinosaur isn't 48-months old, and never sold for shillings!
Stegosaurus in a generic (department store Christmas stock?) Triceratops' box?
Solido behind, don't recognise the one in front?
Not quite half-way through the month, and that's me done for the year! Sixth-best year ever for posts, despite two and a half months off, in April-May, and July, but don't worry, there's too much in the short queue to quit now, maybe I'll have a quiet January!

I don't think the AUTOCRAFT Metal Kits can be that old, I built a few just a year or two ago. Beautiful detailed model kits in 1/76 scale.
I got the impression (from the dinosaurs and the furbies, and the lack of a key-sheet this year), that it was a short-notice grab-together, which he/she/they were just trying to make look different to previous years?
