Payton Products, Inc. Little Green Army Men - Pt 40 Airplanes: Pt 5 6-Engine Bomber (#8) - Cast-in Wheels Yellow SP

I s'pose this Payton bomber is what you'd get if a B-17 and a B-36 hooked up and had kids! Quite frankly, this is one weird mash-up! Like the 4-engine bomber, these were made with cast-in wheels and separate wheels. The plane measures 4.75" (12,06cm) L x 5.75" (14,60cm) wingspan x 1" (2,54cm) H and my sample has the number '8' underneath the fuselage spine.

Back to Hogwarts: Schleich #746814 Harry Potter Ukranian Ironbelly Dragon

I've had several Harry Potter toys sitting around here for the past month or two that I just haven't gotten around to posting yet. This beautiful rendition of the Golden Trio's getaway car after their heist from Gringott's measures 11.5" (29,21cm) L x 11" (27,94cm) overall wingspan x 3.75" (9,52cm) H. The wings have ball joints allowing them to be positioned multiple ways and the jaw is hinged allowing it to be posed opened or closed.

Wings Outstretched and Mouth Closed














Man, I am so pooped after carrying those three!

Payton Products, Inc. Little Green Army Men - Pt 39 Airplanes: Pt 4 4-Engine Bomber (#1) - Separate Wheels Yellow SP

This version of the 4-engine bomber was originally equipped with separate wheels. Unfortunately those wheels are missing in nearly every example I've seen and I don't have enough spare toy wheel sets to cobble replacements. It's not hard to imagine Junior placing all of his weight on the toy trying to roll it around the floor before - ***SNAP*** - there goes the wheels! The number '1' is located underneath the fuselage spine, as well my sample is a bit ragged.
