Another great piece, Wolfie, my unboxed model works/walks very well (amazing after all these years) but I have to use a generic made in China key to enjoy.
Love the box and tail. I hope to upgrade one day.
Another favourite is a boxed Muffin Junior, all rings intact however fat (adult) fingers make it a little difficult to operate.
Great fun trying though. Scares my cat lol.

Re: Jumbo the Elephant
Just brilliant, Wolfie! Such a sweet little thing! Really amazing to see it in such good condition and still in working order. They say an elephant never forgets, this one hasn’t forgotten how to walk – yet! Long may its trumpeting call bellow through the rainforest!!

Re: Jumbo the Elephant
Wow wolfie,rare to see a tail ,key and a box,
i have a soft spot for jumbo too,i got a bit of a herd going,and looking at the bottom picture i think theres a slight variation in leg colours to collect,the two on the right have dark grey legs,the one on the top left has lighter grey legs the one below it has a pair of each shades.(any excuse to add another lol) The two far left are the grandad of the group from germany and a sunfaded lesney one.
