  • Hubley Model A Station Wagon #4858 Metal Model Kit. Open box but unassembled and complete.
  • HUGE! Nomura Cessna 310L Friction Airplane with Reproduction Box. Beautiful, large airplane with spinning propellers. The Cessna 310 is also the same model as featured in the early 1960's TV show 'Sky King', a Saturday morning favorite program from my childhood. This toy is really beautiful and one of my personal favorites! There are two planes available and only one comes with a reproduction box. Please deduct $150 for the non-boxed aircraft.
  • A 1960's Humble Oil Pump and Derrick toy manufactured by Escon for toy distributor Melvin G. Miller and given as a gift to Humble Oil Refining Co. customers. It is a battery-operated working replica of an oil pump rig and derrick in fully working condition. The battery covers came in two colors, white and red. This toy has an original battery cover that has yellowed over time.
  • The Ichiko 1962 Ford Galaxie German Polizie Car Friction and Battery Toy is a crafted replica of the classic 1962 Ford Galaxie, distinct style of the German police force (Polizei) vehicles of that era.
  • A replica cap compartment cover for the 1950's Ideal Atomic Machine Gun. This cap is near perfect and almost a dead ringer for the often missing plug. The fit is tested on my own toy and an original stack of 5 Kilgore Roll Caps (not included) is inserted and then capped. I believe the original cap was a hollow injection molded part and quite flimsy, which is why they're almost always missing. I still resin cast my part but I designed it to be solid with the exterior look of the original. Please ask if you're looking for or need custom parts!
  • A replica hand crank for the 1950's Ideal Atomic Machine Gun. Created from a mold taken of an original toy part, it is stronger than original because I solid cast the square end that fits into the gun. I also solid cast the pin for turning the crank.  The fit is tested on my own toy to ensure accuracy. I still resin cast my part but I designed it to be solid with the exterior look of the original. Please ask if you're looking for or need custom parts!
  • A replacement brass metal battery holder and lightbulb for the 1960’s Ideal Toys Robert the Robot. The battery holder is a perfect fitting replacement brass part complete with a correct, new bulb. We test fit each battery bar to an original toy robot to ensure an exact fitting installation.

    To install, just remove Robert's head and insert the battery into the holder. Install the part into the robot's body cavity and reinstall the head. He is now ready to light up!

  • Irwin Man From Mars Replacement Antenna</p> This is an exact copy of the original Irwin Man From Mars Antenna and is molded in rubber. It will fit the original plastic helmet or our new replacement helmet, also sold here. The antenna should be softened in hot water prior to installing in an original, sealed helmet so as not to crack the plastic from too much stress. Just insert with a slight twisting motion. You could also add a drop of dish soap for lubrication to the antenna base to ease insertion. These parts are in stock and ready to ship.
  • Irwin 'Man From Mars' Replacement Bubble Helmet A two piece bubble helmet for the Irwin 'Man From Mars' wind up toy from the 1950's. The helmet comes in two pieces as shown and installs just as the original. There are 4 alignment pins on one helmet half and 4 corresponding holes on the other half. A small bit of super glue to each pin will secure the helmet to the spaceman. There is a hole in the top of the helmet for the rubber antenna, which is also available here on this site. Many of the original bubbles are missing, cracked and re-glued or have become clouded or crazed from age. My new bubble is guaranteed to be an excellent fit and remain clear for years to come!
  • Irwin Toys Spaceman Wind Up 1950's Orange USA wind-up toy in beautiful replica box made in the USA. Spaceman is a plastic wind-up toy just under 11" tall to the top of his antenna. When you wind him up, he walks forward with a swaying motion and alternately swings his ray guns. This toy was molded in several colors, red being one of the rarest. This toy is completely molded in orange.
  • This is the I.W.G. Rocket Ship, Rocket World, Green Version in Box. It is an extremely fun sort of 'steam punky' rocket ship with a light up cockpit and crazy animal figure. I know there is a whole back story to the Stange Co. Rocket World toy offerings in this series but the large rocket ships really got to me! These are VERY hard to come by now and go for a premium price when you can find them. This toy comes complete with the inserts and original box. The gun fell out of the blister insert during the photo shoot but it's there.
  • A very nice Jenny the Balky Mule tin litho windup toy with built-in key by the Ferdinand Strauss Corporation. Circa late 1920's, the toy is wound with a key located on the underside of the cart.  Wind the key and watch the wheels turn, the mule balk and the farmer rock back and forth.
