enfieldspares Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) My brother had a Louis Marx wind up clockwork rabbit and side-by-side double barrel rubber sucker dart gun. Which sounds like huge fun. Except the rabbit was so fast it was impossible indoors to hit IT before it had "escaped" under the breakfast room table. And for those that doubt such things (even in days gone by weren't taboo) the here's one I found on a USA auction site: https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-louis-marx-rabbit-hunt-game-1841223178 Edited August 10, 2020 by enfieldspares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The local toy shop was doing a "2 for 1". Buy one figure and, at that same price, you got another figure along with it. So we went and asked the man in the shop if Barbie ever came with Action Man. But the man in the shop said "No. Barbie doesn't come with Action Man. She comes with Ken." So for years after as kids we always used to assume that with Action Man, then, so as not to hurt his feelings, she probably used to fake it.
