#672 Globetoys – Speed Cars (1983)


MONTH OF THE BOOTLEG AND THE KNOCK-OFF AT TOYS FROM THE PAST!

Globetoys is a pocket-size Castilian construct for toys from the mid 80s. I of late discovered that it is inwards fact a subsidiary companionship of Guisval in addition to it started inwards 1983. From my childhood I retrieve having a few toys made past times this company. But why a second, novel construct for Guisval, when they already were really renowned in addition to famous inwards Spain? The alone argue that cames to my mind, is that Globetoys offered many models that were copies of other unusual toys, in addition to mayhap Guisval wanted to protect their construct inwards instance of trouble. This toy cars hither are a expert instance of what I am talking about. As y'all may accept noticed, these cars are a re-create of Kidco´s / Matchbox´s Burnin´Key Cars (see adjacent entry #673).


Globetoys made this fundamental machine inwards 3 colours (white, yellow, red) in addition to half-dozen references (101 to 106: ambulance in addition to sheriff inwards white, constabulary in addition to rally champion inwards yellowish in addition to fire fighter in addition to racing airplane pilot inwards red). Each model had dissimilar decals according to its reference. They were only marked “Globetoys – Made inwards Spain” inwards the base.


Some fourth dimension after (maybe 2-3 years later), Globetoys added the blueish model, but past times that time, Speedcars came without decals.



Note that the sirens tin lav hold upward either crimson or yellow, depending on the coloring of the body.

In the adjacent entry y'all tin lav compare Globetoys model amongst the master Kidco model inwards which the blueprint is based. The Kidco model is to a greater extent than elaborated in addition to has a slightly to a greater extent than detailed cast. The bonnet of the Kidco Model is likewise removable, but non Globetoy´s.
