Ferrero Kinder Surprise Italy 'The Flintstones' (1994) - Pt 3 K95 N. 69 Fred with Axe

The second figure from our second batch of Ferrero Flintstones figures is Fred holding a stone age axe in one hand, and a bone in the other. All of these Ferrero Kinder Surprise Flintstones figures are essentially ringhands, and all the gadgets and accessories can be removed and swapped around at will. Except, the bone in Fred's left hand is molded into the hand and can't be removed. While there is no number on the figure, the axe has K95 N.69' molded on the handle.

Payton Products, Inc. Little Green Army Men - Pt 78 Sets: Miner Ind. Playset No. 1753 Army Action Squadron Task Force Set (my set #3) - Pt 6 Jeep and Howitzer

Of the four vehicles Payton offered, only the Jeep had provisions for towing the howitzer even though that would have been prototypically incorrect. In real life the howitzer would have been too heavy for the jeep to pull and Payton should have at least designed the Troop Carrier Truck to do the heavy work.

Ferrero Kinder Surprise Italy 'The Flintstones' (1994) - Pt 2 K95 N. 68 Wilma with Vacuum Cleaner

We start this second batch of Ferrero Italy Flintstones figures with Wilma pushing around a vacuum cleaner gadget. The number 'K95 N.68' is not molded on Wilma, but rather on the handle of the vacuum.

Payton Products, Inc. Little Green Army Men - Pt 77 Sets: Miner Ind. Playset No. 1753 Army Action Squadron Task Force Set (my set #3) - Pt 5 Jeep and Howitzer

The box art for Payton's #2000 set, refers to this piece as an 'anti-aircraft' gun, but you'd be hard pressed to shoot down any aircraft with one of these.

The Miner Industries box top is a bit closer and refers to a 'mounted cannon' being included.
