  • 2004 Menards Enchanted Forest Collection 72" Standing Santa Figure We purchased this beautiful, 6' tall Old World Santa figure from our local Menards store back in 2004. Santa is extremely lifelike with thick beard, piercing eyes and real glasses! His burgandy/sage hooded robe is full and soft, covering a full length golden inner garment. The body comes in two pieces that need to be assembled; held together by 4 wing nuts and mounted to a sturdy wooden base. We displayed this Santa in our home the first year after purchasing and he has been in climate controlled storage since. I have not been able to locate a finer, LIFE SIZE Santa anywhere in my searches. This particular Santa was only offered by Menards one year and then the item was retired, as is the case with most Menards Enchanted Forest items. This item is large in its original packing box - 44" X 24" X 17" and approximately 40 pounds. Local pick up in Los Alamitos, California is preferred or shipping by freight.

  • A replacement cast metal propeller for the Mastercrafters Sessions Airplane Clock. Cast from a mold created of an original clock part and is a guaranteed fit for your clock. I cast these parts myself. All of the pictures you see here are of the new replacement part, not an original. The metal castings are filed, sanded and lightly polished. I decided not to plate the propeller as they looked quite appropriate in the lightly polished bare metal state. Protect the integrity and value of your clock by reinstalling a REAL METAL replacement propeller. This is a bare metal casting and is NOT plated.
  • 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.
  • 1970's Tomy Wonderful Waterful Toys Replacement Rubber Cap This listing is for a new replacement rubber cap / plug for the mid 1970's Tomy Waterful Toys. The replacement cap/plug is an exact copy of an original part and is guaranteed to be a perfect fit. The cap fits perfectly and seals nicely as it is a soft rubber. You can also keep one in the spare compartment underneath, just like the toy originally came with. They are available in WHITE color only. Over time, they will change to a cream color just like the original caps. The black plugs shown were test pieces and are for reference and clarification. Not available anywhere else! There is quite a variety of Waterful Toy games, some of which you will find here. Tic Tac Toe, Ring Toss and many more that provide hours of fun. Some people assume the toy requires two rubber plugs because there is one on the bottom. It is a spare and serves no other purpose, but it never hurts to have two!
