In a previous entry I summarized the history of the smurf plastic figures yesteryear Schleich in addition to Bully. Until at 1 time I owned 3 figures from Schleich (the manful someone monarch in addition to 2 aboriginal Smurfs), only later on I bought a lot of approximately xx figures, all of which I´d similar to introduce inward this entry.

This time, all of them are marked Bully, in addition to stand upwards for models made betwixt 1969 in addition to 1977. I accept got some other manful someone monarch Smurf in addition to some other aboriginal Smurf, in addition to hence I tin compare the mark on the bases, in addition to how similar they are. Apart from a slight colour shade variations, the figures are identical.

So, using my Smurf Figure conduct (#428), I accept classified this lot according to the issue yr of each figure, in addition to this is how I desire to introduce them here:

#552 Yatming - Honda F1 (1301), Ferrari F1 (1302) Too Brabham Bt 44 F1 (1309) (Around 1970 Too 1975)

Yatming made non alone cars, exactly too F1, populace plant machines, as well as many other vehicles inwards several scales. The 13xx Series included 12 Formula Ones (1301 to 1312) from the 60s as well as 70s. The initiatory off references appear to survive older, similar destination of the 60s, spell the higher references are cars from the mid-70s. Were they all made at the same fourth dimension or inwards ii or to a greater extent than unlike years? Probably the trouble was launched at the outset of the 70s as well as extended yesteryear the mid-70s.

The initiatory off ii references are the Honda as well as the Ferrari. The initiatory off inwards marked on the base of operations "Honda", the mo i is non marked "Ferrari". Both models are marked Yatming as well as the reference number, exactly the Honda is Made inwards Hong-Kong, as well as the Ferrari is Made inwards China, then I would bet the Ferrari is to a greater extent than or less form of subsequently re-issue.

Yatming casts are based on ral models, exactly colours applied as well as decorations are quite unlike from the existent racing models. Maybe for this reason, Yatming formula ones are non amid the around sought-after models.
