  • This brand new replacement seat for the Doepke Model Toy is created from a mold taken of an original toy part and is guaranteed to fit perfectly. The seat has the same bosses with a drilled hole to accommodate screw on fastening just like original. The seat should be washed with soap and water to remove mold release agent before painting or adhering cloth. This seat is available no where else but here and is in stock.

  • A replacement antenna for the 1960's Sears Exclusive Bandai Area Radiation Tester. Modeled from pictures of an original toy part, the Antenna installs to the toy the just like the original. We have many other parts available for this toy! Sears Exclusive toys are highly sought after and extremely collectible because of their diverse subject matter and outstanding quality.  The Area Radiation Tester made its first and only appearance in the 1961 edition of the Sears Christmas Catalog as a Sears Exclusive toy. A truly unique and futuristic toy, the Area Radiation Tester is an action toy. Featuring Bump N Go movement, alternating flashing red and green light pods and an articulated radar arm that rises from the rear of the toy in a cloud of smoke! Operates on two 'D' cell batteries inserted into the bottom of the toy. To commence the action, simply slide the carefully hidden On/Off switch on the rear of the toy. The toy automatically comes to a full stop when the rising radar dish pops through the bay doors. Truly an amazing sight to view this toy in operation!
  • Marx Hootin Hollow Haunted House Witch is a perfect reproduction of the original toy part. The replacement made from tin, decorated and mounts to the door just like original! Marx Hootin Hollow Haunted House can be seen in a mid 1960's TV commercial featuring a spooky announcer and two children playing with the house. The actions are triggered by pressing the buttons on the side. A jumping cat, a witch behind the opening front door, a ghost floating in the air behind a lighted window. A scary window shade, a shaking roof with banging shutters, a skeleton that jumps out of the chimney. A spooky, eerie sound and a frightening loud whistling noise. All of these features are operated with 3 'D' cell batteries.

  • Alps Windup Proud Peacock

    $201.25 IL Sales Tax 8%
    A nice Alps Windup Proud Peacock. The toy is all tin with rubber feet. When the toy is wound, the peacock walks and spreads his fan. He works wonderfully and would be a very nice addition to your tin toy collection.
  • 'Candy Vending Machine' battery operated saving bank from Wonderful Toy Company, 1950's. This RARE and highly collectible tin battery op is in excellent WORKING condition. It operates on two 'D' cell batteries. The toy has miscellaneous scratches and scuffs, mostly from the removable top tin cover. Originally designed for use with hard candies or peanuts, I recommend small 3/8 diameter wooden or plastic beads. When the cover is removed, insert the beads into the funnel. When a coin (nickels work best) is inserted into the slot, the inside of the toy lights up, Mr. Vendor cranks his handle and rotates the open top drum. As the drum opening passes under the funnel, a couple bead 'candies' fall into the drum and are dispensed through the chute at the front of the toy and the light goes out. This is an awesomely cool and not often seen toy that will be the highlight of your battery-operated toy collection - sure to please! This toy has a rarity scale number of 9 (10 being rarest) and had a book value of $1200.00 (in mint condition) in 1994. This is an extremely fragile toy. The plastic candy funnel will be removed for shipping and the cavity will be filled with styro peanuts to keep the vendor well supported for travel.
  • This is a wonderful, 1999 Fisher-Price Dino-roarrr TYRANNOSAURUS REX, mint carded toy. It is a newer version of the popular F-P 'Puffalump' dinosaurs. I nearly had a cow the first time my wife and I came upon our first 'Puffalump' dinosaur. He was so soft and squeezable. I just wasn't expecting the sound that came from the toy when squeezed. It starts out as a high shrill noise and slowly descends into a cooing, 'Aaah' sound. An absolute gas and I was immediately sold by its appeal to small children. I purchased this toy brand new in 1999 and have kept it in sealed stored condition. This guy comes to you in vivid GREEN. When squeezed, he opens his mouth and out comes the sound of a very content Dino-roar! Also available is and equally fun Triceratops in vivid PURPLE color. These toys are fabulous for collectors or for those parents who want to give their little ones cherished vintage gifts. Very few left in this condition that aren't already in private collections.
  • Just like the original, this fin is faithfully recreated in tin. To make each half of the fin shape, custom stamping dies were created from an original Atom Jet fin. The halves are hand-assembled, and each new fin is then pre-fitted to an original toy ensuring accuracy and a perfect fit. We complete the fin with paint colors matching as close as possible to the original colors. The results are undeniable and sure to please. Installation is a breeze because the fin snaps easily into place like the original. *WE MAKE EACH FIN TO ORDER, SO PLEASE ALLOW EIGHT WEEKS FOR COMPLETION.*
  • The Yonezawa Burger Chef is a very cute battery operated tin toy from 1950's. It came with a hamburger for the frying pan which the Burger Chef would flip over as it was cooking. However this loose accessory was often lost and the toy is usually seen without the hamburger.
  • Alps Lincoln Futura Replacement Metal Antenna is an exact fitting replica of the original toy deck mounted antenna. This part will fit on all variations of the Alps Futura cars; friction, battery operated and remote control. The replacement antenna mounts to the toy using the same spring shaft configuration and is an easy install. Also available for this toy are the rubber tires and the metal steering wheel. The Alps Futura concept car is a stunning creation that is still popular today. Alps did a magnificent job of recreating this fine automobile in tin.
