My toys site was created a number of years ago and as with most things it is time for a spring clean (yes, it is Autumn in Australia, but..). So please excuse me while I break a few things in order to create a fresh new look for the site. … [Read more...] about Site Update

L & I Glenn Plastic Toys Melbourne

April 9, 2016 by Tony 4 Comments

Thanks to David I now have a Glenn FJ Holden sedan in my collection.

I was pleased to add this blue coloured model to my collection and added a new section for L & I Glenn under Australian Plastic Toys.   … [Read more...] about L & I Glenn Plastic Toys Melbourne

Touring Australia with Holden Board Game

April 7, 2016 by Tony 2 Comments

I was asked recently about a small model of a Holden HK Monaro and as I was researching  this I came across references to a board game that featured HK series Holden models. The Touring Australia with Holden Board Game is one I was not previously aware of. There are a few references: ByteBoss Document References refers to an auction result list from 2004.

Polythene Miniatures from Hong Kong

August 30, 2015 by Tony Leave a Comment

Added a small gallery today of Polythene Miniatures from Hong Kong. These are another of the Matchbox Lesney look-a-like models. These small models were produced in Hong Kong in the 1960's and while some of the models were not proto-types that Matchbox made, the box style with the arched writing mimicked the Matchbox marketing style of the era. These simple plastic models … [Read more...] about Polythene Miniatures from Hong Kong

New pages for Cyclops, Moldex, and Ross Plastics

August 8, 2015 by Tony 3 Comments

I managed to make some time today to create new pages for Cyclops, Moldex, and Ross Plastics. The Cyclops page I should have added ages ago, but I do not have much in the way of toys, just a fabulous Cyclops Toys sales brochure from the 1960's. Moldex Ltd made plastic toys in Melbourne in the 1950's and was also acquired by Lines Bros in the UK. Moldex produced a number … [Read more...] about New pages for Cyclops, Moldex, and Ross Plastics

Thanks to a contact from Queensland I am now the proud owner of my own Pope Products B-29 Supa-Fort Aircraft!  My thanks to Tony Lourensen.
