July 2023 Plastic Figure Showcase Interesting Items. I am going to spend this posting showing a few items from the collection and what I brought back for resale.
July 2023 Plastic Figure Showcase Sel Mac Robot
The first time I saw the Set Mac Robot from Spain was at a Plastic Warrior Show. Both my very good friend Peter Bergner and I like it but passed at the 50-pound price ($80.00). I got one later own somewhere. The robot is 3 inches high and is missing a weapon. My very good friend Juan Herriimada from Spain added this on Facebook. This was the first space plastic robot made in Spain… similar in size to Playmobil figures. There was a bronze version and a blue one made in Portugal. It was produced in 1953. It was sold in a single box and another one with 6 units. It was named “Vigia del espacio” and is quite rare.
Speedwell Maid Marian
Speedwell made several Robin Hood figures. I know of Robin Hood and Little John. I was able to find a third one, Maid Marian. The Speedwell Maid Marian is 45mm and is based on the Britains pose of Maid Marian. Hairstyle and dress are different. An interesting addition to a collection of Robin Hood figures.
July 2023 Plastic Figure Showcase Timpo Cowboy Bandit?
One of the problems you run into with Timpo figures is you can get a mix of pieces from other companies. Right now I have this figure up on Facebook to verify if it is Timpo or not. Timpo has the biggest problem of copies, fakes, and conversions. If it is a Timpo Bandit I can get $20.00 plus. I will be showing other Timpo figures including the train crew and fire engine driver.
As you can see I have gotten my light box up. I have to thank Sherri for putting it together or it would still be in the box.
Update The figure is Timpo and is a rare pose
