Very fine pieces. ;) Thanks Eagle, hey I was reading about your deer hunt in Pa. The deer may be scarce there but here in lower Delaware you can't swing a dead cat by his tail in a circle without hitting one!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Very very nice - I've always been partial to those TV trucks. The Haji box has always been one of my favorites -just reeks of early sci-fi. What piece would you most like to add next?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tree huggers own the herds. You'll see results when you hit one with your SuzukiHondaNissanKiaSubaru cross dresser ! YEP!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YEP!!Funny, My brother and I are both Delaware Troopers and have handled more Car vs. Deer accidents than you can count!! The car always wins, but boy do those deer leave a lasting impression!!

What piece would you most like to add next??Steven, I wish that box was original..All of the boxes pictured are original except for the 5 robots and the space scout..I have a big list of toys I still want but can't afford..If I had to pick three they would be the Kanto Space Patrol Tank (one just sold a couple weeks ago for $4,700 with its original box..way out of my price range). The Yonezawa x-5 Moon Patrol Vehicle, and the Battery Operated Robby Space Car with the tin litho piece that comes out of the back (I guess showing its nuclear power??) where the styrofoam ball floats on air...But I better start saving my money if I want those three, huh??

steve Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 $$$$$$$ is always the X factor in this hobby. If those are the three pieces that you really want (which are perfect for your tastes) asides from saving - no impulse or quick fix buys - save your hobby money only for these guys and one day you will have them. Yeah it might take a bit of time - that will only make the aquisition of them that much sweeter!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dratomic Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I really like those TV trucks... might just be because I'm in that field, but whatever -- they're really cool toys! The Space Camera truck, in particular... If I'm lucky, maybe that'll be what I'm doing one day. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Robot and Son Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Really nice pieces and really nice condition!! I've always liked the mobile Space TV Unit with trailer. It has a great space vehicle, a spaceman, and a great battery compartment. Keep up the collection! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a great space vehicle, a spaceman, and a great battery compartment. Keep up the collection!Thanks , that has always been one of my favorites. I got it from an older gentleman who worked for Woolworths Department store years and years ago, when he left the store (retiring) the manager told him to take a couple things with him and the Moblie Space Tv Unit was one of the things he took. He said it was a display model, it still has all of the inserts in the box..Great Toy...Thanks..One of the sad things is that he also got a Haji Space Trooper with its original box and he misplaced it?? who knows probably under a bunch of old clothes in the attic, waiting to be discovered again someday..
