OH, MAN, WHAT MEMORIES!

I not only had the CORGI die-cast "Monkeymobile", but, also, a tin battery-operated version!

Man, I'd KILL to have these in my collection today!!

LOVE the nostalgia!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Musta been a rich kid. We had to play with sticks...

 

Nope......

FAR, FAR, FAR from rich, my friend........just "middle class"; however I DID play with "sticks".....only they were called "Lincoln Logs"..........

 

One of my nephews LOVED this one (he is still a die-hard "Trekkie" to this day!)

 

The "Batmobile" (from the 1966 TV show) was replicated in plastic, tin (friction and battery) and die-cast, in great numbers.

You could also buy a plastic "Batmobile" in virtually any "five-and-ten" store then for about 79 cents!

Of course, there were also plastic kits available.

CORGI also made them as die-cast replicas, in two sizes.

Man, it's all so long ago now...........................

 

It looks more like a mini tommy gun than a phaser lol!

 

Funny, I was thinking the SAME thing!

 

Maybe this is for the episode where they go the planet that's based on the gangster novel lol.

 

My brother and I each had one. It was fun to use and safe unless you got hit in the eye, and even then it only stung. My father made us wear glasses or goggles when we had "gun fights".

 

We "city kids", back in the 60's, used to spend a quarter in the local candy store for "cap rockets", and about 15 cents for caps.

You would insert of strip of caps into the nose of the rocket, toss it up in the air as high as possible, and then, when the metal tip in the nose struck the sidewalk, you'd heard a small "bang"; then, you'd slide the next cap into position bfor the next "flight".

These were our "fireworks" on the Fourth of July, as well!

We kids also had these cool plastic rockets that "took off" via the water pressure that was pumped into them, via a small hand-held "trigger".

A LOT of innocent fun, back then............

 

Barney's School Bus Factory (I had a LOT of fun with this one!)

MAGNETEL (sort of a pool game with magnetic pucks as "balls")

FASCINATION (battery operated "maze" game)

CORGI's "Black Beauty" (from the popular TV show, "THE GREEN HORNET") COOL car!!

 

Anyone ever have, or at least remember, a toy called The Ghost Gun? Came out in the 70's, way before Ghostbusters.

 

You mean this?
