Oi check this out OK!
This is one of the few sites you can visit where everyone knows anything about something. I am appealing to over 40 folk here, only coz you would know. Maybe younger people will know too, if their parents have them as a collection. Remember those toys you use to get from the milk bar, it (from memory) was in a plastic ball? (not kinder surprise). There were metal figurines, like a statue of something, plastic stuff you could put together, sometimes even stuff like a miniature pencil sharpener or trains and planes. We are talking late 70's here. Anyone remember these and what they were called? Yeah yeah I already tried searching the Net, no luck. |

I think they were called Cracker Jack toys?? I can see the logo on the plastic gumball machine in my head and that name is ringing a bell.
Cheers Col
