Payton Products, Inc. Little Green Army Men - Pt 60 Sets: Pt 2 Salesman Sheets

These salesman sheets are in my collection. Salesman sheets were a very handy tool for salesmen wanting to hawk their goods at a retailer. Instead of carrying around a suitcase full of samples, all they had to do was open their briefcase and pull out a few of these sheets showing what the company offered. If you look closely, you'll notice all the different variety of toys I've been covering since the beginning of January.

Lots and lots of planes here. Trying to discern the various types of planes and matching the sheets to actual toys is a challenge.

Set No. 226 (top, middle) contains several automobiles that I do not have in the collection.

In an earlier post I alluded to a Payton aircraft which was much larger than the ones blogged. Well, here it is - a beautiful B-17 bomber which actually drops bombs. I've never seen one of these and would really love to get a hold of one!

Let's start off this next bunch of posts with photos I've culled from the Internet showing various Payton sets. As we go along I'll attempt to put most everything I have more-or-less in set number order.

It appears this came from one of the various Christmas Wishbooks and clearly shows not only the standard Payton figures and vehicles, but also a couple of vacuformed terrain pieces!

Payton No. 117 Soldiers (Toy Soldier HQ photo)

These are the larger ringhand style Army Men. I hadn't at first intended to cover these in this series, but I ended up buying a few and will do a series of posts after covering the sets.

McDonald's Flintstones Gadgets - McDonald's Australia, Ltd. (1994) - Pt 3 Pigasaurus Garbage Can

These were sold by McDonald's Australia, Ltd., but finding the actual names has been a bit tricky as there aren't many photos out there on the Web of original packaging or advertising for these. However,  I did find one old listing on fleaBay calling this a "Pigasaurus Garbage Can'.
