					<description><![CDATA[<p>Dating from the early 1980s, this bundle of vehicles and figures is part of the Playworld Lil' Playmates Space Station set, we believe. On offer here is a group of five items comprised of four vehicles each with an astronaut figure - a lander ("07"), an explorer ("02") a command vehicle ("04"), and a shuttle ("05") - and trailer-based mobile missile launcher ("03"). All are in good cosmetic condition, with the only noticeable defect being some re-glueing of the radar dish to the mount on the back of the missile launcher unit.</p>
<p>A fun set which might suit someone with space-age interests...</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>If you're familiar with Marx Toys' "Chutes Away" or Gabriel's "Air Rescue" (also its own variant "Night Rescue") then you'll immediately recognise this early 1980s target game made by Mako and called "Air Blitz" as a variant of the same. It has the same principle and is almost identical: a rotating board with an aeroplane guided by the player (via the eye piece) to drop pieces (parachutists, supplies, take your pick) onto targets on the aforementioned playing surface. It's deceptively difficult and very entertaining. No batteries, it's all wind-up power here!</p>
<p>This Mako version is in great cosmetic condition. Some of the stickers are as yet unapplied to the aeroplane and most importantly all of the playing pieces (the weighted parachutes) are present and correct and there's no damage to the aeroplane - both common defects.  A couple of the stickers which have been applied are peeling away or are mislocated (perhaps that's why the rest didn't make it!), but that aside, it's in excellent shape.  The box is somewhat tatty and over-exuberant use of tape at some point has caused some issues, but given the completeness and condition of the contents, this is a minor drawback.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>From the Playworld series of children's activity toys this is Play Circus. Made by Waddingtons, it features a set of thick card figures - a variety of circus-themed items such as people, animals, and othr props - with plastic stands and wheels which can be used in conjunction with a set of thinner card playmats and story cards. This set has been played with and might not be complete, but there is plenty there to get your teeth into and certainly enough to create most, if not all, of the set. Please review the photographs to be assured of what is present.</p>
<p>The box is in fair condition considering its age, but it does have some deformation and a tear to the front where tape has been removed a little too aggressively. The playmat cards show some signs of wear and use, as do some of the other items, but the set is broadly in good, used, condition.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Playworld children's activity toy by Waddingtons, which dates from 1982, based around the theme of the seaside. It features a set of thick card figures - a variety of items such as people, a donkey, Punch and Judy, an open-topped bus, sandcastle, deck chair, etc. - with plastic stands and wheels which can be used in conjunction with a set of thinner card playmats and story cards. This appears to be completely unused, which is rather sad in many ways!</p>
<p>The plastics (srands and wheels) are still attached to their mounts and most of the figure shapes are retained in their original cards, although one or two have worked themselves free over time. The box is in good condition considering its age.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Playworld children's activity toy by Waddingtons, which dates from 1982, based around the theme of a Post Office.

		<title>Original 1980s Tomy Kongman Game Boxed/Complete</title>
		<link>https://anythinginparticular.co.uk/product/original-1980s-tomy-kongman-game-boxed-complete/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=original-1980s-tomy-kongman-game-boxed-complete</link>

					<description><![CDATA[<p><em>It's a game of high skill and daring. The perilous path to Kongman's kingdom isn't easy. The "No-Go" bridge, the magnetic crane, the captive balloon and the incredible magic wall have to be conquered. Have you got what it takes to reach the top?</em></p>
<p>A dexterity game by Tomy dating from 1982, Kongman is similar to the more commonly available Screwball Scramble but it isbattery operated and is based on a vertical board with various obstacles to navigate with the ball bearing around. A timer can be used to add additional excitement to the game or it can be run in a free mode without time limit. The obstacles are numbered with score points, and the player reaching the highest score with the metal ball within the given time wins.</p>
<p>This one is in fully working condition - it has been thoroughly tested! ;) - and unlike many it includes the spinning Kongman card section and holder from the top of the board. The card is slightly worn but is in better condition than most. This is the first edition of the game and it comes with one ball bearing for game play. The outer box has some wear and tear but is generally good. The plastics of the game are all present and correct and the battery compartment is clean and corrosion-free. For a toy which is nearly 40 years old potentially, it's all in good shape.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Remarkably this airport-themed Playworld children's activity toy by Waddingtons, which dates from 1982, has never been used. It features a set of thick card figures with plastic stands and wheels which can be used in conjunction with a set of thinner card playmats and story cards.</p>
<p>The plastics are still in their original bags and attached to their mounts and most of the figure shapes are retained in their original cards, although one or two have worked themselves free over time. The box is in quite good condition and has affixed to it the original price stickers.</p>
<p>A toy which is now uncommon and even less likely to be in this preserved state if you ever do stumble across one. We think it would suit an enthusiast of old games or of travel, or might make a quirky gift for a pilot or airline worker.  Or, perhaps, it might just get used for its original purpose, finally - and we'd absolutely love for that to happen as well.</p>
