  • Al to check description before publishing. Asahi Corp. Toys Junior Products, battery operated 1/10 scale Lotus 49 Ford F-1 formula race car, rare winged version in excellent working, like new condition. This toy comes with the original box and instruction insert sheet. This is a beautiful, all original toy with the exception of my new reproduction rear wing.????? This is car #29. The toy has been tested and is in perfect working order. It has been in my personal collection for several years and displayed in a glass cabinet with its box. The box is about an 7 on the 1 to 10 scale with a couple of minor tears and creases. The toy has a few minor playwear imperfections but nothing distressing and is still a superior condition example to display. The toy has the original injector cover, some oxidation to the metal wheel inserts, which is common but all in all is a really beautiful toy. Engine screams and very bright flashing bulb lights up the center of the engine. An extremely clean and desirable version of the Gold Leaf Racer that is sure to please. An interesting point to note with this version of the Asahi racer's box description is that it specified the use of "2 D Cell Batteries" for operation, yet the toy actually requires 3 'C' cell batteries. This version also only offers neutral and forward motion whereas the non wing cars offer a neutral, low and high speed transmission.
  • Asahi Corp.

     It has been in my personal collection for several years and displayed in a glass cabinet.,   

    The toy has a few minor playwear imperfections but nothing distressing and is still a superior condition, working example to display.

    Ford Gas-Turbine Van Friction Motor by M.K.K. Powered by a friction motor. Quality construction, heavy gauge metal. A nicely constructed reproduction box. Known as the Ford Gas Turbine, Experimental Superhighway Truck, this vehicle was designed to be the cutting edge of hauling transportation efficiency in 1964. It featured 600 H.P. and a cruising range of 600 miles. Our featured toy is in lightly played with condition, strong friction motor and opening rear trailer door. It's missing one light from the roof of the trailer (at the moment. I'll see if I can find it or make a new replacement.) This is an extremely collectible toy and had to come by in such nice shape.
  • Another fine Sears Exclusive toy is The Turnpike Line Racer, Indy 500 style open wheel car with friction powered motor and with 'built in manual jacks'. This large tin car is in very nice played with condition. The manual jack feature works fine as does the friction power. The only items missing from the original offering are the two spare tires, the driver and the box.
  • 1957 Tonka Tow Truck Official AA Service, a must have by Tonka collectors. This is the third year of the Ford style, round-fender truck toys that Tonka will produce. This pressed steel tow truck is in extremely nice, original condition and shows light playwear. It has never been cleaned (other than dusting) and has never been polished so the extraordinary patina is tremendous! A great piece for your pressed steel toy collection!
  • Vintage Unique Art Wind-up Lil Abner and his Dogpatch Band with Original Box. This wonderful, all original wind-up toy spent its life as a kitchen shelf display and saw little to no use. The original cardboard box is very age worn and has been preserved to be used for display purposes with the toy. Be sure to enjoy the You Tube video of this vintage toy in action! Abner dances away while Daisy plunks on the keys of the piano. Granny sits on top to conduct the tunes and Grampy bangs the drum.
  • 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.

    Metaluna Mutant Mask by Don Post

    $862.50 IL Sales Tax 8%
    This is the Metaluna Mutant from the movie 'This Island Earth' back in the 1950's, I believe. This is a latex mask, very heavy (just under 10 pounds) and is approximately 20" tall. I believe this is the first version since 2000 and is increasingly more difficult to find.
  • Just like the original, this fin is faithfully recreated in tin. To make each half of the fin shape, custom stamping dies were created from an original Atom Jet fin. The halves are hand-assembled, and each new fin is then pre-fitted to an original toy ensuring accuracy and a perfect fit. We complete the fin with paint colors matching as close as possible to the original colors. The results are undeniable and sure to please. Installation is a breeze because the fin snaps easily into place like the original. *WE MAKE EACH FIN TO ORDER, SO PLEASE ALLOW EIGHT WEEKS FOR COMPLETION.*

  • Lehmann Duo Rooster and Rabbit Cart Wind Up toy in marvelous shape. This wonderful, whimsical toy from the early 1920's is pure joy to display as fine art! The original lithography is in excellent shape and the wind-up mechanism is strong. In general, the biggest complaint about this toy is the poor performing walking action of the rooster and the drive wheel's tendency to just spin without gaining traction. Because of these issues, these toys spend the majority of their lives sitting on shelves, just to be admired. Our Duo Rooster and Rabbit is 100% original, with the exception of Mr. Rabbit's ears which were fabricated by Uncle Al. This is sure to delight Lehmann toy collectors or collectors of toy animals from the early 20th century.

    'Candy Vending Machine' battery operated saving bank from Wonderful Toy Company, 1950's. This RARE and highly collectible tin battery op is in excellent WORKING condition. It operates on two 'D' cell batteries. The toy has miscellaneous scratches and scuffs, mostly from the removable top tin cover. Originally designed for use with hard candies or peanuts, I recommend small 3/8 diameter wooden or plastic beads. When the cover is removed, insert the beads into the funnel. When a coin (nickels work best) is inserted into the slot, the inside of the toy lights up, Mr. Vendor cranks his handle and rotates the open top drum. As the drum opening passes under the funnel, a couple bead 'candies' fall into the drum and are dispensed through the chute at the front of the toy and the light goes out. This is an awesomely cool and not often seen toy that will be the highlight of your battery-operated toy collection - sure to please! This toy has a rarity scale number of 9 (10 being rarest) and had a book value of $1200.00 (in mint condition) in 1994. This is an extremely fragile toy. The plastic candy funnel will be removed for shipping and the cavity will be filled with styro peanuts to keep the vendor well supported for travel.

    Thimble-Drome Curtiss Pusher by L.M. Cox. The 1911 vintage style, engine powered airplane is a ready to assemble flying model. Complete with a T-D babe bee engine. The Thimble-Drome Curtiss flying model was only produced for one year, (1960/61) due to its delicate nature and inability to survive smooth landings. The model kits came with a parts re-ordering form that I assume was used extensively by model flyers! One of my favorite all-time kits that is extremely well made and has excellent detail. The pilot figure comes with lead weights that fit inside his legs and acts as the counterbalance to the power of the gas, .029 engine. This kit is becoming exceedingly rare to find in any condition, but this kit offered is 100%original, including the decal sheet. I offer replacement waterslide decals for this model elsewhere on our site.
