REMCO Hamilton's Invaders - Pt 3 Sets

REMCO did one heckuva job taking 20 toys and mixing and matching them into multiple sets. Note that I do not have any original boxed sets in my collection. The photos you see here were culled from fleaBay, Hake's auction site (from sales dating back to 2011), and other Internet sites. As most people don't photograph their toys in the same way I do (like taking clear photos of all sides of a box or packaging), set numbers may be missing. While I've compiled the most complete rundown that I can, no doubt I'm missing a few. Also, REMCO did an odd thing when cataloging their sets. Instead of referring to them as "Set No. ..." or "Item No. ..." they called them "Style's" Our first set shown below is a good example: it's referred to as "Style #460".

Here goes - Enjoy! Opa Fritz

GIANT Knock-off Silver Blow-Mold 3in / 76mm Alien

My series on GIANT Plastics Corp space toys is finished but even so the occasional odd post will probably show up from time to time, like this googly-eyed blow-molded silver alien. It is obviously a knock-off of one of GIANT's alien figures but is considerably larger as you can see by the photo below. I came across this a few months ago during a random fleaBay search and had to get it. I can only assume that whoever made this, most likely made the other figures in the series, so as they say, the hunt is on! Enjoy! Opa Fritz
