More from NZ

Post by starni999 »

Hi all,
Thanks to our good mate Matt / mattrove I've added some stuff I've never even seen before.
Made by McKenzie and Bannister in NZ, no I've never heard of them either, but the models are HUGE!

Picked up a Fun Ho Thames pick up to go with the panel too...

Cheers Matt!

If they are Alluminium they are original M & B Toys, if they are Mazac (a much heavier Dinky Toy type metal), they are Fun Ho! re-issues.

Hi Ghosty,
No they are all aluminium. I don't know which models FH reissued in the 80's. Was it any of these?

I tried clicking on the 'Jumbo' link and it won't work for me, but that is where they should be as these huge models were marketed under the 'JUMBO' name.

The link is ok for me, it takes me to the Jumbo page and then there are clickable links under the Jumbo heading for different categories of images. What are you getting Ghosty?
