About Me

My photo
I’m a 60-year-old Aspergic gardening CAD-Monkey. Sardonic, cynical and with the political leanings of a social reformer, I’m also a toy and model figure collector, particularly interested in the history of plastics and plastic toys. Other interests are history, current affairs, modern art, and architecture, gardening and natural history. I love plain chocolate, fireworks and trees, but I don’t hug them, I do hug kittens. I hate ignorance, when it can be avoided, so I hate the 'educational' establishment and pity the millions they’ve failed with teaching-to-test and rote 'learning' and I hate the short-sighted stupidity of the entire ruling/industrial elite, with their planet destroying fascism and added “buy-one-get-one-free”. Likewise, I also have no time for fools and little time for the false crap we're all supposed to pretend we haven't noticed, or the games we're supposed to play. I will 'bite the hand that feeds', to remind it why it feeds.

Toy House Cowboys & Indians - Mounted

As a contrast to the previous post, these are also The Toy House/World Toy House, and also Giant-like 23/25mm Wild West figures, but here are clearly nothing to do with the actual Giant production, being poor quality sub-piracies of the figures, on the n'th generation horse I call remold I think?
 

Five Indians and one cowboy, packaged as some of the mounted-Roman copies of Giant were sold, some, I think, being in Success-branded (WHC/Cornelius) packaging, or was it Woolbro? Generic shite anyway, offered to whoever needed, wanted, or thought they could shift them, and branded-up as necessary.

But is it Giant
 
Of course not, these are non-Giant sub-piracies!
