    This is the most complicated/complex toy I've seen on your site. This was back when toys were made to be fun... not so much safe lol. What kid wouldn't want sparks, smoke and shooting cannons. I want one now.. Great restoration - you never cease to amaze. Thanks

      This toy does not have the function of smoking.
      I have it!
      The resaturator created a scenographic effect with a firecracker.
      However, it really is a wonderful and complicated restoration job.
      Congratulations! Good job.

      Im 74 and I got one of these for Christmas back in the 1950’s along with a “spotlight vehicle”.
      It was one of my favorite toys ever! I would set up all of my toy army men and blast them from across the room. When I was away at collage, my grandmother gave my trunk full of memories away to my little cousin. Thanks a hell of a lot granny! I wish I had that box full of treasures now to pass along to my grandson. Thanks for the memories.
