Antique Tin Toys

  • A 1920's Greppert and Kelch Tin Litho Wind-up Car with Driver #548 in excellent original fully working condition. The toy is marked G. & E. and was made in Brandenburg, Germany.
  • Ha Ha Toys recreation of the iconic Linemar Lantern Robot, mint in the box. The lantern robot has lighted eyes and a lighted lantern in his hand. Fill him with the white powder included and he 'puffs' out the powder while he walks and swings his lantern! Beautiful toy in new, unplayed with condition. The box was only opened to photograph the item.
  • Marx Hi Bouncer Moon Scout astronaut - a very rare robot man indeed! Hi-Bouncer was so named because of the 'Hi-Bounce' superball style rubber balls that he shoots from his chest. This toy works wonderfully but is not 100% original. The toy has my replica working/lighted antenna, 5 correct size rubber balls and a replacement remote control, all in a beautiful replica box. The two button remote functions are robot walking and robot shooting. 5 rubber balls are loaded into a small compartment in the back of Hi Bouncers head.
  • Made exactly like the original, this tin tower will fit perfectly should your Space Station be lacking. My tower also comes with the drive wheel and shaft for the large plastic antenna dish. (sold separately) This tower is used on both the red and blue versions of this toy.
  • Ichiko Space Patrol Car Astronaut Driver Head - This is a replacement replica tin head for the Ichiko Space Patrol Car. I fabricated my first one of these from pictures of the original. They are comprised of four pieces, front and rear of the helmet, inside face and outer earmuffs and strap. I have since acquired an original head and have created new tooling so that my replacement head is now near perfect! I also replicate the windshields and frames for this toy which run $175.00. These take about 4 weeks to complete from the time of order.
  • A Lehmann Brandenburg Dancing Sailor wind-up tin toy in good, fully working condition. Made in Germany between 1904 and 1948 with a dark blue ribbon representing the vessel Columbia. There is some tattering of the cloth, expected on a toy of this age.
  • A wonderful Marusan, Japan Sunbeam Motorcycle with Sidecar battery-operated toy in excellent, fully working condition. The Sunbeam operates with two 'D' cell batteries inserted into the sidecar. The sidecar switch operates the headlight, red license plate, taillight and the front running light. Upon battery insertion and without operating the light switch, power is instantly available to the electric motor to power the bike. The bike operates by switch movement on the gas tank. First gear is slow speed, second gear for higher speed and neutral or 'off'. The front fork is steerable and can be positioned for straight or circular motoring direction. These were very sensitive and fragile toys and most became shelf displays due to mishandling. This toy has been thoroughly checked and adjusted for superior function. Truly a delight and a must have for motorcycle collectors and enthusiasts alike!
