#540 Coibel - Hovercraft (Around 1981)

MONTH OF THE BOOTLEG AT TOYS FROM THE PAST!
 

This is a die-cast companionship that really few die-cast auto collector knows. They are amend known for their die-cast guns, which are really realistic replicas of famous existent guns. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 quick search inwards Google for "Coibel die-cast" volition discover dozens of these. The near interesting toys inwards this department are licensed pistols, rifles as well as accessories from James Bond’s movies.

But they besides made around models inwards 1:64 scale. One of the near frequent is a knock-off of the 007 Lotus Spirit made past times Corgi Toys for the Corgi Junior series, solely inwards the box they printed "Superboons" instead of "James Bond". The text as well as logos are cleary inspired inwards Superman. Curiously, other Corgi Junior models that were copied are the Supermobile (Nr. 11-C1) as well as besides the helicopter (one of its versions was “Daily Planet Helicopter”, Nr. 6-D1). Maybe the designer was a corking Superman fan!

only mention to these companies that tin live on establish demo come upward from the 11th of March, 1977. That solar daytime many newspapers published that the both companies had been fined amongst v Million Pesetas each for selling as well as producing pistols as well as guns that expect real, for violating around constabulary for the safety as well as the possession of firearms. After that, ITA S.L. decided to export their guns to other countries, as well as that’s why they inwards Nov 1981 filled a trademark application (for the construct Coibel, which was the trademark they already used inwards Spain, as well as for which they had the logo, packages as well as and then on) to sell their products inwards the U.S.A. as well as that’s what they did until 1989. Unfortunately, nosotros produce non know what happened afterwards. In that country, the toy guns made past times Coibel are quite sought after, to a greater extent than ofttimes than non those based inwards existent models, similar Mauser, Luger or Magnum.

#541 Matchbox - Snr6 Hovercraft Together With Rescue Hovercraft (Nr. 72 Together With 2) (1972 Together With 1976)

 
The showtime article of the terminal calendar month (month of the bootleg) continued the terminal entry of March, too the showtime entry inwards May volition too somehow choke on the terminal entry of April. This way, both articles volition live "together" too it volition live easier to detect 1 from the other.
 
These are the ii Superfast Hovercrafts made past times Matchbox. Both conduct keep the same base of operations alongside the same reference inwards the 1-75 series, although they are dissimilar casts too inwards all catalogues conduct keep dissimilar numbers, they conduct keep been numbered 72 & 2, too they are actually 72-B too 02-C.
 
The showtime 1 (72-B, from 1972-78) is a white hovercraft alongside dark base of operations too cerise plastic details. It is a quite mutual model, but unfortunately the plastic business office on transcend is quite fragile, too then sometimes, those blades are broken. It carries 1 sticker on each side alongside the letters SRE6 addition the Union Jack.


The minute model (02-C, from 1976-80) was made inwards brilliant dark-green alongside a brownish base. Maybe they had inwards heed to unloose a armed forces model, but at the terminate it was decorated alongside but about random "RESCUE" stickers. This model has ii chromed bits on top, that resembles but about sort of motor addition an air intake. These are sometimes non really shiny anymore, but, inwards general, this model is much to a greater extent than durable than the showtime one.
 
It seems to me, that the white model is a scale reproduction of a existent hovercraft, patch the minute 1 is to a greater extent than similar an invention, but I could live wrong, I am no skillful on this topic, too never saw a existent hovercraft either.
 

 
The white hovercraft was too available inwards a bigger scale inwards the Superkings series.
 
UPDATE: This is a rare Rescue Hovercraft inwards a pale dark-green alongside dark base. I institute it past times jeopardy too never had seen it before. Did you lot know it? Was it sold equally business office of but about bigger kit, or inwards the ordinary 1-75 series? Anyhow a really interesting model. I know what Christian Falkensteiner has published here: http://www.cfalkensteiner.com/Matchbox/Catalog/LS/LS01-39/LS02c/ChF-LS02c.htm
This is the version alongside regal windows.

#707 Eidai Pocket - Mitsui Zosen Hovercraft (Around 1980)


I flora this toy hovercraft a few months agone inwards a flea market. It is non 100% complete, since the big propellers too its fans are broken.

I convey flora out that Mitsui is a Japanese technology scientific discipline too shipbuilding company, too Zosen seems to live the Japanese discussion for Shipbuilding. I create non know who made this toy or if it is genuinely a toy... mayhap it is or too then promotional ítem? It has a logo on the base of operations that resembles or too then form of "G". Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 reader from this spider web log gave me the hint too correctly identified the toy to live an Eidai Grip. I volition update this entry amongst or too then to a greater extent than information soon.


Anyway, a die-cast hovercraft inwards three inches size is something rare. We already saw the ii ones made past times Matchbox and I am already aware of a vintage model made past times Tomica, which is the 1 that tin live flora easily inwards Google when searching "Mitsui Zosen". The Tomica model, nonetheless seems to convey a plastic base.


Despite intensive search inwards Google, I couldn't discovery whatever pictures of this toy, too then I approximate it is a really rare one. If yous convey information most this toy, delight larn out a comment here. Maybe or too then Japanese reader tin render or too then link or hint. Thanks!

#771 Unknown Manufacturer – Unidentified Toy Boat (Around 1987)


MONTH OF THE UNKNOWN

I convey a few interesting toys that I convey been collecting over the years from which I know zippo at all. They cannot live identified since they convey no industry marking. Despite searching the internet, I couldn´t notice anything well-nigh them, in addition to then I changed my mind, in addition to sentiment it may live improve if I reveal them now, in addition to people reading this could assist me identifying them.

There volition live eleven toys (all eleven entries from Jan 2017), exactly I warn you: it is non an slowly chore to pose them. Are you lot laid upward for this challenge?

If I larn hints in addition to information, I´ll live updating the posts to add together data well-nigh them. Thanks!
 
If you lot similar the challenge, at that spot are other toys inwards this weblog waiting to live identified, click here to encounter all unidentified toys.
 
 
To terminal this month, I had to await deep into my pictures which convey non been published withal to notice an unidentified toy. Finally I constitute this uninteresting boat (I convey about other one, exactly it is non complete, in addition to then I am non showing it).
 
It was made inwards Italy, in addition to its logo resembles a “V” alphabetic lineament within a square/trapezoid. I convey been looking for the manufacturer, I fifty-fifty asked plastic toy experts for help, exactly I gauge exclusively individual from Italy could pose it, since it was in all likelihood made past times a modest society producing novelty toys. Any ideas?
 
The toy is made of ii pieces, although the other i I mentioned had to a greater extent than (it is a rowing boat with four holes to agree ii rows in addition to possibly a plastic figure or a flag or something else.
Both actually float.
 
Additional information: Bought inwards bigger lot that included figures from the belatedly 80s. Bought inwards Austria.

#785 Chiquival - Chiqui-Pescador, Chiqui-Carreras Y Chiqui-Policia (Ref. 577, 582 In Addition To 584) (1983)


Here are 2 to a greater extent than Chiquival vehicles: the Sheriff´s Jeep together with the line-fishing boat. As usual, both came inwards the dainty "match box" amongst beautiful pictures on both sides.



The vehicles are three inches long together with what nosotros would telephone phone today "superdeformed", or perhaps non "super", merely exclusively "deformed". They are specifically designed to fit 1 figure inside, together with then exclusively surely models are suitable: cars are ever cabrios, F1s or jeeps, truck come upwards without roof...




I chose these 2 models because the figures that came amongst them are somehow difficult to uncovering complete. Note that the Sheriff comes amongst a real very minor walkie-talkie together with the fisherman comes amongst a long together with frail line-fishing rod (and that Spanis flag is actually fragile), together with then tho accept these references complete, y'all accept to purchase them novel inwards box.





You tin order the axe run into other Chiquival inwards this previous entry #467.

Note the choice pattern of the box inwards that entry. One of them is in all likelihood older than the other, together with I tend to intend that the minor box was the master copy design, that was afterwards replaced past times a bigger one.

Note the lowest reference number, together with the "less modern" text font inwards the forepart of the small box together with no logo... theywould accept used it, ifthey had had it at the time, it is a dainty one!.

I would nation the the references inwards minor boxes appear to hold upwards somehow rarer than the ones inwards large boxes, although this is exclusively an impression.


UPDATE1 (Feb/2019): From this series, the Chiqui-Carreras Formula 1. H5N1 model that wakes practiced memories inwards me because it is a model I accept since I was a kid. I of late got this especial boxed. unfortunately, it is non inwards the mint shape I expected from a boxed model.

#907 Donkey Quartett - Flitzer Renn- Und Sportboote (3218), Sportwagen (3240) (Around 1971 Together With 1973)



Two to a greater extent than decks for my collection of ASS quartets. Sportwagen (sport cars) in addition to Flitzer Renn- und Sportboote (race in addition to sport boats).


Of course, the deck alongside the cars is much to a greater extent than interesting in addition to to a greater extent than valuable than the other. At the fourth dimension at that topographic point was a big involvement inwards those race boats shown on the comprehend of “Flitzer” (I remember having assisted to a boat present inwards the belatedly 80s), in addition to hence it does non surprise me that at that topographic point are in addition to hence many boat quartets from the 70s in addition to the 80s. I get got seldom heard near this type of races anymore, in addition to hence I gauge they are non beingness held anymore. Too dangerous?





The “Flitzer” deck of cards was made roughly 1971 in addition to it does non truly include many of these race boats described above, simply to a greater extent than ordinary footling sport in addition to inflatable boats. The deck is nice, I create non dislike it, in addition to likewise includes the “futuristic” flight disk, some sort of U.F.O. hovercraft.


The deck includes the “Berufstip” (advice for people willing to become) photographers.


Sportwagen deck looks slightly newer, it was made inwards 1973 (according to quartettblog, in addition to hence it is 100% sure), in addition to it does non display the Blitztrump logo on the comprehend anymore. The “Berufstip” card, has been replaced past times a “Fahrbericht” of a Porsche 911 S. That is a driving report, similar inwards the specialized press.


The comprehend is a BMW 3.0 CSI, which is non the most interesting auto inwards the deck… Having in addition to hence extremely cool cars inwards the deck, why that BMW? Nevertheless, I honey this quartett, accept a await at all those Lamborghinis, Maseratis, Ferraris, Porsches, Alfa-Romeos… from the early on 70s. One of the coolest quartets I ain despite the cover. It was likewise available alongside bluish cardback.
