There are lots of Building Toys !
Obviously there is Lego, but all the Lego-style blocks as well.
Then Tinker-Toy, and all the clones, copies, and which one came first?
Meccano, but it is not the oldest, as there are many other free-style construction systems from many different makers over many years.
I’ve come across quite a few in recent years including some I have yet to identify. The following is just a sample of some of the toys I have or have had. I am also linking back to posts that I have made regarding some specific building toys and my research into those toys and their makers.
Tinker Toy
There was a recent post on Facebook which displayed a Modlo Building Toy “A Premier Product” Made in Australia. The cover art reminded me of a Noddy Builder tube that I had on a shelf somewhere here, and I dug it out to compare.
And then I dug out some more Tinker Toy tubes by Questor and the Glenn Plastics Bildit tube for more Tinker Toy style options.
