MAC'S CAR
(EIDAI GRIP CHARACTER SERIES NO. 8)
© T.F.C.
Continuing on from their range of vehicles from
Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet And The Mysterons, the Eidai
Corporation of Japan manufactured a tiny version of Mac's Car around 1973. |
|
It may have been small (about 3" long),
but it still featured wings that opened at the touch of a button.
|
 |
 |
Numbered 8 in the series, the toy was available in
red, green and blue. |
|
A later Eidai Grip repackaging (No.6, G-400) seems to be
only available in blue - unless you know different. The box art for this
version ties in with its Thunderbirds predecessors - it even has the
word "Thunderbird" (sic) emblazoned on the box, together with images
of Thunderbirds 1, 2 and 4 (which for some reason has changed colour and
turned into a hovercraft).

Made in Japan. |
