retro playmobil teak viking treehouse toys corkscrew

You can hang out with all the boys …

An all toy boy lineup for the not-so new generation,
featuring from the left:

Paddy Playmobil circa 1974+

The mid-century Viking [he’s an-teak]

Chef, a seasoned pro, an old salt, yes, he has sailed the seven seas…

Village boy Hans Hummel, one of my regular figures, a celluloid phoney

Kay Bojensen wannabe, corkscrew, circa 1960s

And the not-so macho Aviator of the Little Tikes Toddle Tots family

AKA Chunky

They want you as a new recruit…
The Village People, 1978

Reprogramming to unwind with the clones…

The big robot is my husband’s, its circa 1975  and did work until Junior took it to kindergarten show and tell.
Not for sale.

The little model is keen to sharpen pencils, non vintage.

A chicken and an egg are lying in bed.

The chicken is leaning back smoking a cigarette looking satisfied.

The egg grabs the sheet, rolls over and says “Well, I guess we finally answered THAT question.”
