Thanks for everyone's interest. I am happy to bring amusement through this project.
The retro tin toys are images gleaned from the Internet. My models are made with card with bits of plastic added. The robots are from the defunct company Mega Miniatures. The owner, Johnny Borg run a few kick-starters a year and sometimes he includes access to his old castings. His robots have a lot of character. The Bender bot can be purchased through Armourcast miniatures.
I wii include a closer view of the ice cream vender in my next post. However my stuff always looks better from a distance, paint and model wise.
Cheers
